The argument 'sure thats bad what we did, but others have done things more evil' is pretty lame, especially since %99.9999999 of evildoers can make that defense- its really hard to outdo Hitler, Stalin, Mao or the Catholic church...
Saddam could also use the same defense that Tom loves to use- sure saddam did evil, but it was NOTHING compared to what Hitler did....
In the same vein we did evil by kidnapping and torturing innocent people, but heck- it wasnt as evil as saddam's actions so its ok. Notice that Tom 'the libertarian' Brosz had no condemnation for the actions revealed above- a man whose life was interrupted and ruined because certain agencies of OUR government didnt want to be embarrassed...
The whole idea of human rights seems very fluid when it gets interpreted by the right wingers doesnt it...?

Maybe Tom is learning- Lets support him....
