The finalists for Coward of the Year: a) The military person flying pilotless drones over Pakistan shooting missiles, killing innocents, sitting safely in his/her cubicle in Nevada. b) The police informer that tricked on the 8 young kids currently sitting in jail around the Republican National Convention c) The torturer inflicting pain on a bound prisoner. d) The workplace brown nose snitch. e) The government employee whose job it is to read personal emails, listen to personal phone calls, spy, snoop, and entrap civilians. ... and the winner is ... The entire American Population! This has got to be the most cowardly group of people ever assembled under a national flag. They have allowed an extremely small group of bullies to take over their government, economy and environment and lay waste to all of them with minimum dissent. In fact, they have convinced a large portion to hand over their sons and daughters for sacrifice and the parents proudly do it. These people talk a good game about freedom, but wouldn't recognize it if it spit in their eye. Six years of brutal war is upon us. The reasons for going to war have all been discredited, now just jokes for Jay Leno. Young men and women blown to bits, maimed, and psychologically damaged for life. Innocent civilians of Iraq killed by missiles launched hundreds of miles away, bombs dropped from airplanes, snipers hiding on rooftops, for what? The crime of living in a country with a brutal dictator? Americans the last 8 years deserve the same. Enough with the John Wayne hooey. I've had it with so-called patriots. They are just little boy cowards hiding behind the school yard bully. It is the American way to stand up for the little guy, to be a safe harbor for the dispossessed, and these values have been replaced by greed and arrogance. This government had an opportunity (remember the peace dividend?) to bring cohesion to earth and they spread destruction instead. It's nothing to be proud of.
