Here's what I say. Neither this president, nor any future president, nor anybody else in this country is in any position to crab about what goes on in Central or South America after the murder and mayhem the CIA generated in Central and South America between the end of WWII and the end of the cold war. Much less pressure or intervene in any way in the affairs of sovereign nations in Central and South America. We're still paying for it in Central America. We're still paying for it for our arrogance in Iran in the 1050's and 1960's. We're still paying for our arrogance in Iraq in the 1980's. We already paid through the nose for our arrogance in Vietnam in the 1950's when Ho Chi Minh came to this country for help and we hung him and the Vietminh out to dry and twist in the wind in favor of the French rubber plantation barons. We're paying for it all over the world.

Way over the top, my ass.
