Pusillanimous =is= a word, though, made famous by veep
Spiro Agnew (in a speech written by William Safire)
with the phrase "pusillanimous pussyfooters."

Webster's defines pusillanimous as "marked by
contemptible timidity."  =THAT= certainly describes
the folks on this list...

The other famous Agnew-Safire phrase was "nattering
nabobs of negativism."  Good thing there's never any
of those here.  Defying all predictions, I see that
the sky is still there...
