A Whole New Realm of Hypocrisy

How is it even conceivably possible that George Bush, Tom DeLay and the rest of the "Culture of Life" crowd can denounce stem cell research at the same time that we, and by we I mean America, are systematically torturing detainees at Gitmo, Bagram and who knows where else and "creating a network of supplicant nations to 'sub-contract' illegal detention and mistreatment" all in the name of freedom?

The prevailing conventions used to be that politics stopped at the water's edge. Now apparently the "Culture of Life" has taken it's place along our shores.
