How is it that he is a coward? Only cowards throw words like that around.

Too bad that he doesn't live in 19th century...so that he could challenge you to a duel. We'd see who the coward really is. Them thar's fightin' words.

Then why is it acceptable for you to say that those that use the lord's name in vain is a coward and a godless fool?

How is it that he is a coward?

Context: hoodlums are brutalizing citizens in New Orleans; women are being raped in the Superdome; Relief helicopters are being shot at by what can only be called animals on the ground.

General Honore starts things off by cussing at his troops, not the animals his troops were brought in to keep in line. That strikes me as singularly cowardly.
