Brian (The Coward) Greenspun is the editor of the Las Vegas Sun and writes a weekly editorial. the reason why Greenspun is a coward is because he doesn't allow comments on his column.
From Coward's column: There is nothing classy about the trouble we’re having.
I don’t know about the rest of you, but I am tired of hearing politicians, talking heads, wannabe pundits and know-nothing know-it-alls telling us that good fiscal, tax and revenue policy is nothing more than class warfare. Because it is not.
If you are a member of a certain class and you feel put upon, under siege, oppressed or at war, you will actually say something about it. Like “help!”
In the case of President Barack Obama’s effort to ask the nation’s wealthiest individuals and corporations to contribute a few dollars more each year to help our country out of the fiscal ditch we are in, those who are screaming “class warfare” are doing a great disservice to this democracy. And those yelling the loudest are not the people who are being asked to pay.
By contrast, those asked to pay are saying, “yes.”

Say, Coward Greenspun, when did you send in your check to pay your perceived fair share of taxes?
Well, today he is advocating that the rich, who, Obama's definitions, is anyone who works, pay more in taxes. Greenspun is an advocate for higher taxes but when has Coward Greenspun ever sent in an extra check to the federal treasury?
Of course, Greenspun won't write a check because he doesn't really believe in higher taxes. In fact, Greenspun just recently stiffed some banks/creditors when he allowed some property into foreclosure. In addition, Coward Greenspun just laid off about 12 workers from the Sun, so he really doesn't believe in keeping people employed. Finally, there is no union representation of employees of the Las Vegas Sun, so Coward Greenspun doesn't want to pay his workers an honest wage or give them fair benefits. But he expects employers to allow unions in their workplace, wants to keep a low bottom line and really doesn't believe in paying more in taxes.
Brian (The Coward) Greenspun is just a great big phony, like this guy in the video:
The Las Vegas Badger is about politics, humor, sports, reality shows in Las Vegas, especially Pawn Stars and anything else interesting. While I live in Las Vegas, my heart is still in Wisconsin. Thanks for visiting the blog and feel free to browse the web site.
