Our Attorney General, Eric Holder, once called Americans cowards on race yet he backed down on prosecuting members of the New Black Panthers who intimidated white voters solely because they were black. We now know who the real moral coward is.

It is the history of secular progressive-socialists to “declare war” on something, to speak in military terms in an attempt to rally citizens. Franklin Roosevelt declared “war against the emergency [great depression], as great as the power that would be given to me if we were in fact invaded by a foreign foe.” Lyndon Johnson [...]
