Torture Nation

Andrew Sullivan compares the response of the American people to allegations that our government tortured prisoners to the response of the Iranian people to allegations that their government tortured people. Americans come up short. The money quote:
Our job, in other words, is to raise the core moral baseline of Americans to that of Iranians. That's the depth of the hole Cheney dug. And it's a hole the current GOP wants to dig deeper and darker.
