      why was everyone getting so mad at me? I never said it was OK for a President to police the world, but it is an implied job.

      Its all about MONEY? I think the wars cost more than the money we gain. Plus, i dont think bush is having trouble putting grub on the table.

      I am an semi-isolationist. I just wish every country could become like the US, it would be SO awesome.

      However, forcing freedom on people is, in fact, the opposite of freedom. Let these dictators kill their own people.

      Btw, why do so many people here hate America? I have seen a lot of misconceptions and lies.

      Personally I love america, which is why I feel compelled to speak up when the government does something stupid or wrong. And still no, policing the world is not an implied job. If a president thinks that it is, its because he a moron.

      There is nothing to backup your statement other than the fact the last few presidents were idiots. I mean I could also say its an implied job for the president to expand his power but no thats not a job, its just what they do because their jerks. And I could say its an implied job of congress to find new ways to waste money but no they are just asses. Thats not a real job they have.

      The government loses money, not Bush. But who gains money? Well, after we bombed Afganistan, the oil company Dick Cheney is a part of built a pipeline through the country they were no alowed to make before. This made a lot of money. I bet were doing the same thing in Iraq.

      Also, people are greedy. Bush and co. don't need more money, but they want it. Almost every president is guilty of trying to make money off of the law, even George Washington, and Lincoln let his cabinet members except bribes.

      Also, America is a great country, with great people, and we have great potential to help the world. Currently, we are only contributing to the problem.
