When we find 'criminals' in our government we work to get them out. When honorable men and women step up to lead we support them. It is our system. All of us feel frustration at times and sometimes it works better than others, but we don't give up on it.

"We have a proclaimed policy of attacking any country whose policies or regimes don't follow our dictates."

This is a vast overstatement. If it were true we would have attacked nearly every nation in the world by now. I can't think of one nation that always does what we tell them to do. Even our friends are at odds with us a good percentage of the time. Why does it make you feel better to hate your own country so much?

Me: "We have a proclaimed policy of attacking any country whose policies or regimes don't follow our dictates."

I overstated this, our new policy seems to be pre-emptive strikes against potential threats. I prefer deterence.

You: Why does it make you feel better to hate your own country so much?

I don't hate America, but I don't care for our foreign policy and ever growing government.
