Of course you're not a traitor, why would you be? One of the fundamental rights in America is the right to disagree with what your country and government is doing, even though George Asshat Bush would like that not to be the case. | |

You're only a traitor if you disagree with the neoconservative take on foreign policy, or dissent against the current administrations domestic spying policy.

No, he wouldn't be a traitor. In my mind, he'd be a bit of an idiot, but not a traitor.
Now because of those things if he was actively working to leak secret information, spread false stories about our efforts there, etc to try and affect things, then I'd change my tune | |

Last one is pretty stupid.
You're only a traitor if you hate the troops or marry gays.

Not a traitor by any means, but definitely misinformed or simply oblivious to to America's stance on removing Saddam from power, UN violations, Iraqi Liberation Act etc.
