Spence, are you OK with Obama's drone strikes, which we absolutely know for a fact, occasionally result in the death of innocent bystanders? According to Obama, it's OK for us to incinerate innocent bystanders, but not OK to sleep deprive a known terrorist, guilty of mass murder? We can blow up an innocent baby, but not keep Usama Bin Laden awake for a few days?

You go ahead and defend that.
