“While Churchill, who died in 1965, is often viewed as a successful war-time leader...he is also commonly criticized for his attitudes on race and colonialism.”

Only by complete retards...

The greatest man of the 20th century.

Churchill made some rather accurate observations about Islam.

He should apologize because Winston Churchill was THE greatest man of the 20th Century.

What does the guy have to apologize about?? My Lord. If it weren’t for Churchill the Brits would have been flying the Swastika! All of this PC crap has to end.

He's the twin brother of Gabrielle Giffords husband and he's a democrat. So are you less surprised now?

I think you can take “very possibly” out of that statement. Churchill was the greatest, most important man of the 20th century. Without him, many of the other accomplishments of the century would not have occurred.

How anyone could apologize for quoting Sir Winston is beyond me. I guess it shows how intellectually bankrupt the left hopes to make everyone.

He said ‘in victory, magnanimity’...
...and then felt the need to apologize for it?
What a wuss.

If coming together, as a nation, should transcend politics, as Kelly stated, then there should be no need for an apology. Period.

Also....is he going to apologize for apparently supporting the atrocities committed by the foes of Churchill and the Allied Forces?

What does Kelly think about the ‘bringing together’ that Hitler, Mussolini, Hirohito, etc did with THEIR racist views?

What an absolute embarrassment and tool this putz continues to be. He needs to educate himself, alright.

The Bengal Famine.

And there is still considerable resentment about India under British rule.

This supposed person should be recycled. Maybe he will come back better as a cardboard box.
