There's hypocrisy on both sides of the same LIE. Ideals as such have been bought out. Don't you see? Divide and conquer.

Kudos to Politico for running a front page article highlighting Liberal Hypocrisy. This non-partisan periodical deserves a grand gesture from the public for not cowering to the muted response of the mainstream media and its abject refusal to hold Democrats accountable for their glaring silence and hypocrisy after January 20, 2009.

What if George W. Bush had done that? - Josh Gerstein - POLITICO.com
1. The ideology isn't hypocritical. Obama supporters who support Obama's actions, but who condemn those same actions when performed by someone else are engaging in hypocrisy.

2. The fact that a liberal is pointing out the hypocrisy is proof that not all liberals engage in such hypocrisy.

I'm pretty liberal. Seriously? Getting money for re-election is wrong now? When did that become a talking point? IS he .... not supposed to do that? While the other guys ARE doing that? so..... for him to do it is bad, and the others to do it is not bad. Oh! Wait, he's good at it. Let's shame him by reacting against him doing good at it?

You know, if he wasn't getting a lot of money/donations, people would be starting threads like "Obama is Finished! Losing all donors! AHAHAHAHHA!" If he IS getting a lot of money/donations, it's "Obama doesn't care about America! Just money! AHAHAHAHAHA!"

That's hilarious.
You illustrated the OP's point beautifully.

I think its pretty clear that liberals by and large have not held Obama to the same standard as GWB. So much so, Politico felt it was justified to make it front page, front and center.

The due-process-free assassination of U.S. citizens is now reality - Yemen - Salon.com
Did I? I think you missed mine, too. So I guess we press on.

Colonol Jessup was right. *Note* Foul language warning - He says the GD word *

I'd like to believe there are people who don't just need killing. I'd like the world to full of pansies and pretty pink ponies, too. I'd like to believe every cop is honest and sincere and that our government has nothing to hide, while protecting us from monsters.

But, I'm not 10 years old. I'm 40. And there are some People that Just Need Killin'. Court of law? No, Court of 7.62 mm full metal jacket.

Both sides may seem to be the same, but only one gets so many free passes from the media.
No equality in policics.

The issue is hypocrisy, not the need to raise campaign funds and kill people.
