<<I would not have pushed Mubarak out or overthrown Gaddafi. Syria - its ruled by a corrupt cruel dictator, but whoever takes his place will be worse.>>


We didn't push Mubarak out, the people did and we just sided with democracy. Remember it was about democracy. Mubarack was a cruel dictator. How would you like to live under a cruel dictator?

Gaddafi was about to slaughter 10,000's of thousand of people. I am proud we prevented that.

Why was Saddam different? Because he kept starting wars over and over and would have continued doing it as long as he lived. Hell, he never even stopped shooting at our planes. He should have been overthrown after he invaded Kuwait ... the first Bush messed up there.
