Nice friends you have...
So let me get this straight... Turkey rejects our request to launch the Iraq war from their bases: good ally. Turkey harbors hatred towards the American people: good ally. Turkey kills an Armenian journalist and convicts his son months later: good ally. Turkey threatens the US efforts in Iraq again for passing a non-binding resolution condemning the Armenian Genocide: good ally. Turkey attacks Kurds in Iraq, thus complicating US efforts in the region: good ally.
What on earth does Turkey have to do to become a bad ally, or even not at all? Well, now it seems the anti-American sentiment is alive and well in Azerbaijan, their blood brothers... lucky for them they prevented it.

Look at the map, darling. It's not about being "good" in the absolute sense. It's about being "better" (as a strategic ally, no other meaning involved) than Ahmadinejad's Iran, Iraq-in-a-mess, Asad's Syria and, well, Armenia which hosts Russian bases.
As cynically simple as that.
