...Kinsley is on solid moral ground in excoriating Bush for disallowing stem-cell research during the almost seven years of his regime.

...Gaddafi's plane had barely touched the ground in Paris on Monday when the verbal ammunition among French politicians began flying over why President Sarkozy had chosen to host him during a five-day visit. France's junior minister for human rights Rama Yade blasted her government, saying that the visit would allow the Libyan leader to "wipe off the blood of his crimes." Unwilling to play the polite guest, Gaddafi spat back on Tuesday, saying said France had human-rights problems of its own in its treatment of immigrants, who include millions of North Africans...
