Howard Zinn is an angry guy

I found this online and it amused me greatly.  It feels like Zinn maintains a focus upon the Europeans being totally lame and whatnot.  It's interesting to note that every history, no matter what it claims to be, is ultimately biased in some manner, or people can think that is biased.  Perceptions are important.  This can color our whole viewing of the American Revolution, or American history.  Is history really written by the winners, or do we only listen to the winners?
