Yes, we all understand the linguistic gymnastics are a way of rationalizing an action you know is wrong.

On the contrary, I think the people who know whether an action is right or wrong don't spend a lot of time arguing either way, they just go ahead and do what they think is right. It's the people who don't know whether an action is right or wrong that get all worked up trying to handle their conflicted feelings about it.
