The U.S. must care what the rest of the world thinks. Our global image is half of our power. If the U.S. loses its stature as the leader of the free world, and is seen to promote the same values as any other tyranny (i.e. torture) then the country is diminished in every respect. One cannot call for the end of corruption in other countries when we have corruption at home.
