He was an idiot and he let Palpatine use him and torture his own son. Cowardice.

Nope. You're a fat hillbilly and you've never posted a pic.

Wrong. He was not biding his time he was whipped. I did post a pic and didn't block out my face in shame, ugly.

Hid behind Anakin, begged for his life, hid in secret, tried to flee from Yoda initially. I mean come on. He's a typical manipulator who is scared of a fair fight.
I dunno man. Looks more like he was smart, but I see your point.

You wrong as usual. Post it again, then.

No, what you are describing is idiocy. Big difference.

He was an idiot. He was also cowardly against Yoda. I know I was describing idiocy. That was the point. Try to stay with the conversation.

I am staying with the conversation. You claimed that Anakin was a coward. I then called you out and showed what you said was idiocy, not cowardice. When and where did I lose track of the conversation?

Also, how was Anakin cowardly against Yoda?

I was speaking about Palpatine. Anakin was cowardly against his fear of losing Padme. He couldn't control himself. He let his fears rule him as well as Palpatine which is cowardly.

As apposed to what?

I think you need to realize that fear and Cowardice don't always mean the same thing.

He was cowardly in serving Palpatine since his Padme had died and he already made his intentions clear of ruling the galaxy himself.

He wanted to rule the galaxy with Padme. But we still need to consider that Anakin is an idiot, not a coward. If we had a who's smarter thread, Palpatine would win by a landslide. It was their difference in intelligence that let Palpatine rule over him.

Cowardice is due to an inability to act based on fear. We see his reason is gone for allying himself with Palpatine but he still did so due to cowardice.
