Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell is right: America is not only a nation of wusses, but we’ve also been sashaying down the road to wuss-dom for quite some time. I almost wrote, “swishing down the road to wuss-dom,” but I changed my mind. Why have the PC cops kicking in my door tomorrow morning?

Rendell’s comments came after National Football League executives committed the ultimate act of what, for lack of a better word, I would call “wussitude.” The Philadelphia Eagles were scheduled to host the Minnesota Vikings in a game this past Sunday night.
