I am furious over the new American cowardice.
Business people are too cowardly to hire because they don't know what is going to happen next with government - the people who built this nation had far less certainty than anyone has now.
The Democrats are too cowardly to support their own platform - even though their current acquiesence to the right is a sure step to their defeat.
The media is too cowardly to tell the truth about the debate - they say both sides are to blame, even though the Democrats are willing to compromise and the Republicans are not. The GOP is willing to put the economic health and safety of the republic at risk to protect their wealthy supporters and for their narrow ideological agenda and the media says "they are both to blame" in a craven attempt to appear even-handed.
