Exactly, we have a habit of propping up dictators - like Saddam or Khomeini. Our foreign policy reflects our wallets, not our ideals.We sanction and economicly ruin countries that elect leaders that disagree with us economically - regardless of how they came into power.
Sweden, Switzerland and Costa Rica seem to be strong on democracy and press freedom.
Our “quasi democratic republic” ranks poorly when it comes to censorship and civil rights.

"Real democracies" like pre-War Iraq or Afghanistan, contemporary Iran,
North Korea and Libya?
I prefer these false democracy police states like the UK and the USA.

It sounds very consistent with our foreign policy of "zero tolerance for
real democracy"
Then again, that's our new domestic policy as well.
