Yet Moira has Chloe run Lex off the road and then bash him over the head.

Actually, that isn't canon. We don't know exactly what Moira told Chloe to do. She didn't tell Chloe to turn a gun on Lex to get out, and a command to get out for her own safety is a fairly morally safe thing to do. And yet, there was Chloe with a weapon pointed at Lex because he stood in her way. I wouldn't be surprised if Moira's instruction was more along the line of 'Lex Luthor is holding me hostage, find out where I am so you can get me out.' Or whatever.

The only nightmare I'm calling to mind is over the fake!baby? That's kind of a whole seperate issue with me and my opinion of Lex, and I can't see even the slightest excuse if he was behind Lana's fake pregnancy. As for what he's told Lana and Lionel, he doesn't really seem to have the most honest relationship with either. Actually, I'd hazard that his relationship with both seems to be more fraught with lies and manipulation than anything else. He doesn't even appear slightly remorseful during the actual doing of any of these things, and as the Lexana relationship has shown Smallville doesn't have a problem with showing beneath Lex's facade when he turns away from someone he's trying to fool, so I don't buy that he's just hiding his 'real' emotion behind a mask to get the job done. Actions speak louder than words, particularly when those words are to people you're rarely honest with. That's not heroic, that's just doing what you please because you can.
