Even 60 years after that Supreme Honorary American, Churchill, transferred the British Empire (and most else too) to the US, there still remains a large body of fossils and adolescents, who won't allow themselves to believe it, either for fear of sinking into oblivion or for fear of growing up.

Not true, unless you equate the Brit Empire with freedom and a way of government, which is the point of the article. If anything, it is an American Empire, but even that does not fit the premise of the article. Your comment does not track with the article at all, but obviously you have another agenda.
