As an American I'd like to state that I have no intrest in leading the world. Most of us are sick of leading - it's a thankless job, and one that someone else should be given the chance to fail at.

If the USA doesn't lead it will actually acomplish things!!

@ArcaneKarma

we have no choice but to lead. What makes america so great is that we can sit back and think. What country in the world benifits the world by being the most powerfulcountry. If china was the most powerful country would the world be better. If Iran was the most power? If India? Or the passive, and indeccisive EU? America must lead, for only we can!

how long until mccain starts calling the Syrian opposition as patriotic rebels and demands the the US taxpayers start funding them with non-leathal material? What happen to McCain? Did he take an oath to support and defend the Constitution? What a disappoint......

[huskie767]

What is the Constitutional basis for the USA's involvement in Libya? Whis is Obama targeting M. Khaddafi and why did Obama order the killing of Khaddafi's youngest son? Will Obama and McCain, etc be subject to a war crimes trial in the world court?

How about we let Libyans drilling oil in Arizona first?

@mzambo666 The United States did not start any inter-hemisphiric wars without international consensus or even praise until very recently. In fact, the U.S. has brokered peaces throughout the world, ended wars by noble intervention, and maintained the sovereignty and security of the world for nearly 70 years. Its capitalist, democratic example has illuminated human civilization for hundreds of years.

@DaDoctaBoom The reason is because Iran is a more serious, entrenched political and economic player than Libya.
