Or maybe we should use our limited power (there are limits even for sole superpowers) to do triage and take care of the worst problem regime first. Doing so may set an example and teach lessons reducing the severity of other regime's abuses. And there is another consideration with Saddam - nuclear arms. To the more than 1.5 million casulties of Saddam so far (Iraqis, Iranians, Kuwaitis) will then likely be added millions more. So with Saddam one should think not only of what he has done in the past and what he is doing in the present with the means at his disposal but what he will do in the future when he acquires new more powerful destructive powers.
