do unto others

i'm kinda confused about the christian-on-trial-in-afghan story. i've read that the christian right-wingers here are enraged and that condi & w, themselves, have tried to explain to those wacky allies of ours that this could be a problem and that they need to understand that we expect them to follow international notions of democracy/freedom of religion. ok, so far, so good. but, what i don't understand, is this...

if they argue that members of our supreme court should never be expected to consider the standards or laws of other nations, where do they get off telling a foreign, constitoutionally sanctioned court how to enforce its laws? how 'bout we teach by example?
