Our foreign policy decisions would be a lot better of people bothered to pay attention. Instead, we get screams to cut money for legitimate overseas projects and unnecessary wars based on lies. Obviously a lack of curiosity is not just for Republican presidents. Pew Research:

This lack of agreement notwithstanding, a majority (57%) says the Obama administration is handling the situation in Egypt about right, while much smaller numbers say the administration has shown too much support (12%) or too little support (12%) for the protestors.

The latest national survey by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press, conducted Feb. 2-7, 2011 among 1,385 adults, finds that nearly half (48%) say they have heard a lot about the anti-government protests in Egypt; about the same proportion (52%) reports hearing little or nothing.
