That's a great idea to get rid of regimes who are our allies but try to keep regimes in power who are our enemy. Welcome to the Obama school of foreign policy.

I realize that there are a lot of complexities when it comes to foreign policy. Sometimes you may have to throw the enemy a bone. I understand that, but overall I think Obama's foreign policy has been a disaster.

You can criticize Bush for Iraq, but at least in that case we were getting rid of an enemy and going to have it replaced with a friend. At least there was some upside there. In other words, even if invading Iraq was a bad idea, it was the greatest idea in the world compared to trying overthrow the regimes in Libya and Egypt.
