Say if former Mayor Daley from Chicago, who is hardcore anti gun, buys a handgun, is he a hypocrite? Or if a Black Panther who constantly rails about racist brutal cops calls 911 at the drop of a hat to report noisy neighbors?
I'm not asking if people have the legal or moral right to do it, but rather if they are hypocrites for condemning something they freely participate in?
Of course not. Its like i britise the dedcution on income tax but tke them becaue that is why the system is. I'd muc rather change it to eliminate the dedcuctions and pay stright onincome bases whic would lower broaden the base while lower overall rates.What you have is the governamentsayig thses are the rulwsa. In 2009 my wife did not take a deductio and the IRS sent a check and the a letter saying we wre entitled to that deduction.Shocked me really.Obeying the rules des not mean you agree with them.

I only understood about half of what you said. Obeying the rules is one thing, participating in something that you don't have to is something else.
A good example would be Michelle Bachmann being so critical of Medicaid while her husband's clinic accepts Medicaid as payment for services. That's hypocrisy.

Or maybe Obama campaigning that he would end the war in Iraq and Afghan and then sending in more troops?

no that's not hypocrisy
the fact that her HUSBANDS medical CLINIC accepts medicare/ciad has nothing to do with her OPINION of the abusive and fraudilant medicare/ciad systems
