Jesus wrote that the same kind of judgement you use will be used on you. Representative Spencer Bachus stated that comedian Bill Maher was guilty of treason for highlighting the fact that the army missed its recruiting goals by 42%. He stated that Maher was guilty of treason and defined treason as remarks which would undermine our national security.
