This current incarnation of Republicanism is so crude, so un-American, so fascistic in its disdain for the rule of law and its relish for violence that it should have no place in a Western polity. To have leading Republican candidates embrace torture in this way renders it the only political party in the entire Western world to embrace the abuse and torture of prisoners. It is unique in the West in embracing the tactics of totalitarian states throughout the world.
— Andrew Sullivan, “Why Huntsman And Paul Matter”
The fact that these unctuous, idiotic, craven hypocrites haven’t been run off the stage in utter shame sickens me.
