“There is indeed a great deal of difference between a political coward and a traitor.”

I couldn’t disagree with you more! Inaction to traitorous acts is the same as condoning traitorous acts is the same as committing traitorous acts.

I consider these spineless wimps as cowardly traitors!

Well let’s see. Let’s say someone robs a person in broad daylight and a bunch of people standing around do nothing to stop it. The police show up. Do they arrest the bystanders along with the criminal? No. So apparently our society believes there is is a difference between committing a crime and watching others do it.

Even among criminals there are differences depending on the degree of the offense. There is a difference between murder and manslaughter even though in both cases a person may be killed. So there are indeed differences in such matters depending on the degree of the offense.

While one can be upset at politicians for failing to prevail politically and stop the opposition because of their political cowardice or perhaps a lack of ability it is certainly different than politicians who are evil enough to deliberately work against the U.S. military.
