Since conservatives don't like the idea of the US gov't telling them how to live, how to spend their money....

and generally meddle in their lives, why do they support the US gov't going around the world telling other countries, other peoples (Iraq, China, Russia, Venezuela, Cuba....) how to run THEIR lives, what kind of gov't THEY should have, what kind of society THEY should have, what kind of economy THEY should have, what kind of civil liberties THEY should have.....don't tell people at home how to live their lives, but it's critical for us to tell others around the world how to live theirs, how to handle their resources, how to trade on the world market......
