259. The problem with the "armchair quarterback" defense...

is that there is no foreseeable end to what can be excused by it.

It covers everything into a neat little package of "Well what have YOU done?" --excusing all behavior and ignoring the fact that stepping up into a position of responsibility means PRECISELY that you are the one who is in the position of being criticized for actions (or lack thereof) by the "do-nothings" you so callously dismiss who elected you to that position.
