We never have been from the very start. While I think Churchill is a nut and 
a liar, I think the basic premise buried under all his hyperbolic rhetoric 
has more than a small grain of truth in it and it needs to be said. The 
problem is the WAY Churchill says it he trivializes it. The U.S. from the 
time of the revolution has had a less than honorable history. Frankly what 
we have done in Latin America is despicable. That will never change until we 
can take a hard look at ourselves and correct the things we have been doing 
that are wrong. But time is running out.
