What IS In The Constitution

From Article III, Section 3:

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
It could be argued that that the Saudis are our enemies. After all fifteen of the attackers on September 11, 2001 were from Saudi Arabia. Isn’t George W. Bush now giving them “Aid and Comfort”? Is George W. Bush committing Treason against the United States?

According to George W. Bush tyrants (like Saddam Hussein) are bad and should be replaced by a democracy. Saudi Arabia is ruled by a tyrant and is not a democracy. Why are they not part of his “axis of evil”?
