The Hashtag #47Traitors Trending Worldwide and in the USA Tuesday night, March 10, 2015. There is also a petition to charge the GOP Senators who signed the letter to Iran with treason posted on WhiteHouse.gov that has garnered over 123,000 signatures. I signed it yesterday when there were only about 6,555. Over 100,000 signatures in 24 hours!

Update: From President Obama:

Dear GOP, Obama doesn't apologize for America -- he has to apologize for you. #47Traitors #GOPWantsWar pic.twitter.com/uTV8WiMMTj #UniteBlue

Hey @GOP: Your rebranding effort is working! The top trending topic on Twitter is #47Traitors Congrats on successfully rebranding the GOP!

If these Senators really think they can dodge this mess or play "Blame Obama" with it, they really are delusional. Some are already blaming Netanyahu for rabble rousing and pointing at Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) as a scapegoat for writing the letter.

Far-right wingnuts have come out of the woodwork to support Tom Cotton and the rest, while Tom Cotton tries to 'splain what they were doing.

Lesson for hand-wringing & brow-furrowing conservatives: Bibi & Cotton are the ones who've put the Administration on the defensive on Iran.

I see #47Traitors is trending on Twitter, a testimony to the infantile McCarthyism of today's Left. #47Patriots

@BillKristol oh please. A neo-con man like you talking about about McCarthyism? That's rich.

Bill Kristol tells me: He discussed the Iran letter with Sen. Cotton as it was being prepared, but did not help draft/edit anything

Coming to theaters soon: "Wrong and Wronger" @BillKristol @SenTomCotton pic.twitter.com/OzryxGeUwm

The fact that the Cotton letter is backfiring so spectacularly strongly suggests that the idea originated with Bill Kristol.
