Does the United Nations even know the meaning of the word hypocrisy?

I have previously blogged about the subject of needing ID cards to vote in elections, most recently here. So I was intrigued to learn that the United Nations Human Rights Council investigated the issue of American election laws at its gathering on minority rights in Geneva, Switzerland. Is it not a tad hypocritical for the UNHRC to look into the democratic process in America when some members of the council have only relatively recently allowed women to vote and one member, Saudi Arabia, still bars women from voting at all.
