Quote of the Day
When America tries to depose a dictator like Saddam Hussein who put tens of thousands of Iraqi Shiites in mass graves and who was trying to acquire weapons that would allow him to kill tens of thousands of Israelis or Americans, the left complains that America is trying to be a global policeman and needs to learn humility. But when a naturally generated tsunami hits Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Thailand, killing hundreds of thousands, it is somehow assumed that the American government must take the lead in the disaster relief efforts.

It just seems like President Bush can’t do anything right...at least according to the left.  Mark Cuban over at blogmaverick.com has something to say about the situation in Asia as well, although what he writes seems to be a tiny (sarcasm) bit hypocritical.

The difference is what role the United States should play in world affairs.  Either we will promote the values we claim to hold dear, or we wont.

The aid to the victims of the Tsunami exemplifies the values we purport to uphold, the experiment in Iraq does not.
