"Audience bursts into applause at mention of Perry’s plan to try [Fed Chair Bernanke] for treason."
Think Progress:

<...>

9:01: Bachmann does not think Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke is committing treason, unlike Rick Perry.

9:00: Taking a swipe at the title of Ron Paul’s book, End the Fed, Cain, a former Chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas, says we shouldn’t end the Fed, we should “fix the Fed.”

8:59: Rick Perry suggests that Ben Bernanke and Barack Obama have devalued the dollar. Was he expressing this concern during the much larger Bush-era devaluation?

8:59: Audience bursts into applause at mention of Perry’s plan to try Fed Reserve Chair Ben Bernanke for treason. Treason is a death penalty offense.

<...>

Nuts!

Article III, Section 3: Treason
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

The Congress shall have power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted.


Mr. Perry, please tell me exactly where in that description, anything Ben Bernanke has done falls into.

5. They are completely insane..... I recently read an article about Obama being fearful of a coup....
http://www.justice-integrity.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=460%3Cimg%20src=

Basically they recognized early on the absolute insanity of these people.

They impeached Clinton for getting a fucking blowjob. They have bankrupted our nation. They are almost impossible to deal with at all.

Remember the town halls from pre 2010. These people are almost criminally insane. I feel like I'm living in 1928 Germany sometimes. One side sits back and argues itself to death. The other side just dominates.
