Of course not. It's only hypocrisy if the other guy is doing it. - TWuG Jul 7, 10:20 11
- And vice versa. I'm not clear why we need to hear about it every time a Republican state representative is arrested for something. -- nm - Ender Jul 7, 10:24 7
  - It's the hypocrisy on the GOP side that makes it funny. The inability to practice what they preach. - TWuG Jul 7, 10:28 3
    - I live like 50 miles from this guy and have never ever heard of him, why should anybody give a crap what he thinks in the first place? - Ender Jul 7, 10:39 2
      - Becuase he votes to inflict his version of hyper-morality on those people in your state. - Will Hunting Jul 7, 10:45
      - Because he was elected to public office and can enforce his beliefs on others. -- nm - TWuG Jul 7, 10:42
  - I prefer to hear about it whenever *any* politician gets arrested. -- nm - mara Jul 7, 10:28 1
    - Really? You think any time an elected official is arrested anywhere it's newsworthy here? -- nm - Ender Jul 7, 10:32
  - I disagree. -- nm - Spawn Jul 7, 10:25
- Yeah, Dems do get a free pass on this shit for the most part. All because, "we never claimed to be all family-like and stuff". -- nm - Jim Jul 7, 10:23 2
  - The behavior does call into question any "protecting the sanctity of marriage" arguments though. (the article says he is married) -- nm - Dano Jul 7, 10:26
  - It's just funnier when those preaching loudest are found to be sinning hardest. I don't like the sinning, but the hypocrisy makes it worse. -- nm - TWuG Jul 7, 10:26
