I mean, isn't a "Yes" vote an act of giving aid and comfort to the enemies of the United States? Fortunately, we have some real Americans in Wisconsin who are trying to support the troops and the President rather than undercut them on behalf of the terrorists.

Supporters of the war in Iraq drove laps around the state Capitol Saturday afternoon, honking horns and revving engines as they urged voters to turn down a referendum asking whether President Bush should pull U.S. troops out immediately.

A caravan of vehicles, escorted by about a half-dozen leather-clad members of the U.S. Military Vets Motorcycle Club, circled the Capitol for about half an hour.

The vehicles were decked out with American flags and signs that read "Vote No To Cut and Run." Across the rear window of one car someone had written "Choose Victory." About 20 supporters cheered from the sidewalks.

"I consider it a betrayal," said Jake Kraschnewski, a 22-year-old University of Wisconsin-Madison student from Burlington who spent a year in Iraq as a Marine reservist. He stood on the sidewalk holding a "Vote No To Cut and Run" sign.

Voters in Madison and 30 other Wisconsin cities, villages and towns will go to the polls Tuesday to decide referendums that ask whether Bush should bring American troops home now. Peace activists pushed to have the questions placed on the ballots, even though the referendums have no bearing on federal policy.

This really pisses me off.

UPDATE: Blogs for Bush has an interesting piece on the issue of treason on their site today. It is the third of a series of posts on dissent and treason. I cannot say that I agree with all of Mark's conclusions, but I do find them rather interesting.

UPDATE 2 -- 4/5/06: Treason accomplished.
