Undeniable Conservative Hypocrisy
When the Bush/Cheney Gang was in office, any criticism of Bush, Cheney, Republicans or their policies was met with screams of "anti-Americanism".

Critics of the Bush Criminal Enterprise were told, in scathing terms, that they hated America, hated the troops, hated the flag, they hated Mom, baseball, apple pie and Chevrolet.

We were told that to speak out against the Idiot Prince was giving aid and comfort to the enemy in wartime.

Yet, every day, the hate mongers on Talk Radio and FAUX NotNews spew the most vile lies and distortions about the current president.

Bill-O, the clown joked about kidnapping the Speaker of the House and waterboarding her.

The Vulgar Junkie PigBoy Limbaugh calls the president "man-child" which is his code word for "boy".

Hannity,,,well there's not enough room here for the filth of Hannity, the wretched little cur Levin, Aryan Ann Coulter, Malkin and the other right wing trash.

Look up "hypocrisy" in the dictionary. It's probably going to say "See conservative/Republican".

4. Check out MediaMatters
Beck calls Obama a punk for SCOTUS remarks. PigBoy calls Obama a petty little man. RW media call the president a jerk, arrogant, cocky.

Damn, if this had happened to Bush, the RW media would be screaming for blood.

5. Of course, when Bush and Cheney were in office
a lot of us (DUers specifically) felt that it was not only our right, but our DUTY to speak out against the Administration or the party in power when we though they were wrong. Now, not so much. Thankfully, we're not hypocrites for also changing our position on this.
