Or how Trump the Dump whines about outsourcing...yet his clothing line MADE IN MEXICO and CHINA.
he only puts his name on the clothing line, he has no control over where they are made, that is up to the companies that produce the clothing. he only allows his name to be put on the clothes.

nice try but you are failing

Hypocrisy is simply a virture amongst today's GOP loony teabaggers.

The GOP's new slogan: "Do As I Say, Not As I Do"
funny but that is what the democrats have been doing all along, so again you are failing.

All politicians, regardless of party, like to think of themselves as elite and the laws do not apply to them.

That's what we keep trying to figure out. Unfortunately, the liberals never answer.

Politicians don't have a monopoly on hypocrisy.. it's a ubiquitous part of the human condition.

But politicians live in the public eye, so their hypocrisy is (often) on full display. When a tow truck driver, or insurance salesman, etc. acts hypocritically, there's a much smaller audience watching & judging them; I assume.

One thing to think about...most people seem to want the government to act like a parent, and a lot of parents are hypocritical with their children. I think there's a connection there. People learn a lot from their parents' actions.

So are you saying such a situation makes it all right?
