Kelly, once a very brave man, has become a coward and a jackass for the radical left.

“Kelly, once a very brave man”

To me bravery requires that your willingness to take a risk is because of a higher, worthy cause. For instance, if you went into enemy gunfire to save a fellow soldier, that’s bravery.

But if just want to be shot into space, which entails risk, that’s not bravery.

It would be bravery only if a blindness to risk is part of the definition of the word.

Nevertheless, I admire Kelly for his astronaut career.
