Only stupid if concentration of power is our goal.

It would be stupid because in theory Pogo's suggestion would put us on equal footing as countries like North Korea, Iran, Syria, etc., nations that have fundamentalist governments that are threats to the rest of the world.

There is nothing wrong with a nation or a few nations being more powerful, particular a country like the U.S., who can keep the peace throughout the world when needed. Not that I agree with the Monroe Doctrine, but that is the role we have taken.
