Convervatives Are Phonies
They don't even believe their own drivel. They sure can sell it, though.
It's not just John McCain flip-flopping on everything from condemning pandering to "agents of intolerance" to pandering to "agents of intolerance," nor going from fiercely opposing Bush's tax cuts to championing the idea of making Bush's cuts permanent. Nor his flip-flops on Afghanistan, gay marriage, the Confederate flag, the "cakewalk" in Iraq, and of course, torture.
Nor is it just the FAUX News conservatives like Bill O'Reilly flip-flopping on whether out-of-wedlock teen pregnancies are the fault of the parents (in the case of a Spears) or none of our business (in the case of a Palin), nor Karl Rove flip-flopping by saying that the governor of Virginia (who was previously Lt. Governor and before that the mayor of a city of 200,000) was not experienced enough to be Vice President but then changed his tune for the governor of Alaska (and before that the mayor of a city of under 10,000) singing her praises as the perfect choice for Vice President.
This illness afflicts many other God-fearing conservatives, including some average, every day hypocrites that listen to WRKO-Boston conservative talk show host Reese Hopkins.
Referencing the out-of-wedlock teenage pregnancy in the Palin household, Hopkins dared question the Palins' parenting skills on the air. Hopkins got 125 protest e-mails from listeners telling him that Bristol Palin's pregancy is no big deal. As if the parenting skills of people whoe promote abstinence-only yet have a pregnant teenage daughter isn't something to question! As if FAUX News wouldn't have a nightly round table discussions onthe subject had the out-of-wedlock teen pregnancy happened under the roof of a Democratic public figure!
Hopkins had previously spoken at length about the Gloucester High teen pregnancy pact controversy earlier this year, and his listeners wrote in about those pregnant teens as sluts with horrible parents. Cross-referencing the 125 e-mails about Palin with the ones about Gloucester HS, Hopkins found 70 listeners who had completely flip-flopped.
