Utterly Insane, 100% Off The Scale, Completely-Out-Of-Touch-With-Reality Double Standard Watch

Behold, Jennifer Rubin at Commentary:

Now, if the Obama administration is, in fact, concealing evidence that torture was effective in eliciting information, then that is bad. But the effectiveness of torture is not really the issue here. My initial response: anyone who thinks that it's in any way plausible to suggest that this single incident can even register against the record of unremitting mendacity of the Bush administration is some kind of lunatic who has lost touch with reality.

This is in no way an attempt to defend the alleged actions of the Obama administration.
