True enough. However, there is frequently a lot of "Sturm und Drang" when a politician who utters a truth about us that we are uncomfortable hearing. A recent example is the furor over Reid's (true) statement about Obama (light complected Negro without a Black accent). Or whenever a true statement about a particular American action abroad being a causative factor in a negative reaction by our adversaries is labelled as "Blame America First."
