No, we really don't. And we don't have the money either. We're over $10 trillion in debt to Japan and China, and to top it off, our military is dwarfed by the size of Russia's and nothing compared to Korea's fanaticism. Besides that, our economy is still unstable, we haven't even begun pulling troops out of Iraq, and we have just gotten a new president. We've got enough to worry about at the moment. How do you expect to be the world's policeman if you don't solve your own problems first?

You're right, I didn't phrase that very well. I did not mean to imply the US govt should fight those tyrants, I meant that the people who squeal about how bad Bush/the US is never make a peep about the real problems, like these dictators and their human rights abuses. The only time these people mentioned Saddam Hussein was when the US called him to account.
