Why do we assume that Assad is the bad guy? Or Saddam Hussein the bad guy?

Why do we assume there is a good guy?  As near as I can tell, both sides suck pretty hard in Syria.  One side appears to be infiltrated by Islam fundamentalist terrorists and the other is a genocidal or borderline-genocidal dictator.  Pick the lesser evil there, I'll wait.
