Ah, because I'm not willing to accept that our Presidents can be assassinated, I'm a nazi.

Here's a quote for your from Jean Francois Revel:
"A civilization that feels guilt for everything it is or does will lack the energy and conviction to defend itself."

That describes the liberal mindset pretty well.

I'd feel better if Kennedy had tried to assasinate Castro - which I think he did. The Kennedy did indeed try to assassinate Castro. President Kennedy's brother Robert was actively involved in the attempts.

I think America should quit "sinning". OK. Course my idea of sinning is different than yours, I certainly acknowledge America has "sinned" although I see that as largely behind us.

It for our "sinning" that we're hated the world wide ..
That is doubly false. We are widely envied and that is the source of most anti-Americanism, which is not as widespread as you probably think.

You apparently are a good Nazi that will forgive America ANY sin. We are all sinners. Acknowledging that doesn't mean we should hate ourselves.

If we set up extermination camps for our enemies, you'd be okay with that. No, I wouldn't. And you have no reason to say that.
