"Clearly, the way it looks from a distance is that this young man is a traitor, that he took up arms against our country, which, you know, goes back to the very founding of our nation and our Constitution about what is appropriate for a citizen," said Sen. Hillary Clinton. "So I, certainly, you know, consider him to have been a traitor to our country, but, you know, that's not a decision with respect to the legal action that should be taken that I'm going to be making."
From Sen. Trent Lott: "I don't know all the facts â I don't think any of us do yet. But he certainly looks like a traitor. He looks like he was right in there in that rat's nest with the rest of them."
John McCain: "This is one of the more difficult issues that we're going to face, because Americans obviously will be very, very concerned about a situation where a person takes up arms against his country. That fits the definition of treason."
We appear to have tripartisan agreement. From the rest of us: "You in biiiiiig trouble, boy!"
