The Republican Party - the Case for Treason
September 17, 2002
By Anonymous

I hereby accuse the Republican Party of committing repeated acts of High
Treason against the United States. I submit the following list of charges,
and respectfully demand that the Congress investigate them fully, in an open
and public way, and take appropriate action if the investigation concludes
that the accused are guilty:

Charge 1: That during the presidential campaign of 1968, members of the
Republican Party, not then in office, did harm the safety and credibility of
the United States, and did bring about the death of thousands of US military
personnel, by making secret contact with and negotiating with an enemy of
the United States, the government of North Vietnam, in an attempt to induce
that foreign government to postpone peace negotiations with the rightful
government of the United States, and thereby prolong the war, for the
purpose of gaining political advantage from the failure of those talks.

Charge 2: That members of the Republican Party, including but not limited
to, members of the Richard Nixon Administration, did abuse the power of
their office and put the safety and credibility of the United States in
jeopardy, in order to aid the interests of private political donors. To wit,
that members of the Republican Party, as members of the Nixon
Administration, interfered in the affairs of a sovereign nation, Chile, and
did actively and illegally promote and participate in a coup d'etat in that
country--including acts of {*filter*}--avowedly for the purpose of protecting
the United States from

ou can add to this another Republican crime. This is another hoodwink from
the party that is leaving a lasting mark on the confidence of the american
people...
