IOKIYAR, Treason Edition

As Kleefeld points out, these aren't just overseas junkets, these Republicans aren't only creating their own version of foreign policy, they are acting on it by traveling overeas and directly undermining official U.S. policy.

Like many readers, I am not an insider and do not have the foggiest idea what IOKIYAR means but, in my opinion, the content of the diary is noteworthy.

The diarist names four Republicans, Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC), Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-OK), House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) and Rep. Mark Kirk (R-IL) who could be called on the carpet for treasonous acts.

I would posit these four Republicans are going to select countries to give fodder to the FOX News elements of those countries. I think it was during his interview with Larry King last week hearing Pres. Ahmadinejad of Iran saying it was the neo-con element in his country that was stirring up the mal-content when King asked about the flack regarding his re-election.

It would be of great importance to the American citizenry to know what groups those four Republicans addressed. I would suspect they did not go there without some pre-arranged speaking agenda of note that was, in all likelihood, recorded and dutifully documented in that country’s equivalence of “Homeland Security” files. You can bet your bottom dollar there are also independent recordings of their trips to show at fund raisers etc.,

As always,

Excerpt:
A delegation of four Republican congresscritters, led by the ever-odious deather Jim DeMint, traveled to Honduras and met with President Roberto Micheletti, who took power after a military coup last June which ousted President Manuel Zelaya.
And
Senator Kerry, Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee acted to block the DeMint trip to Honduras, by withholding travel funds, and denying the group the use of military aircraft, but Senator DeMint went running to mommy Mitch McConnell, who got the Pentagon to provide an aircraft for the DeMint trip.
