When someone quotes a "news/editorial" from The Guardian, perhaps it might do well to think of this quote, from them today, regarding the death of U.S. President Ronald Reagan:

In an editorial, The Guardian said Reagan's "rose-tinted view" of the past and the future of the United States that "made America feel good about itself makes others deeply alarmed."

That, I believe, shows the respect they have not only for the U.S. but for its founding principles. Let's face it, they dislike free societies, free markets and the equality of opportunity we represent. It threatens their dogma, which is fundamentally socialist/Marxist.
