Dan Rather: Hypocrisy tends not to have much of a shelf life.

[kpete]

There will be a time, probably in 2020 if a Democrat is elected president, when GOP elected officials will flock to the Sunday talk shows and op-ed pages to speak gravely, and with great sadness, about the evils of the deficit. Hypocrisy tends not to have much of a shelf life.

1. Hypocrisy is in the DNA of the Republican Party/Conservative Movement

We Liberals certainly have own issues but as for hypocrisy, Republicans own that trait outright. They have, in their president, a walking, talking (well slurring) poster boy for hypocrisy. The party of "family values" fully supports a man who has cheated on his 3 wives. The party of fiscal responsibility blew a trillion dollar hole in the budget and wants to fix the fallout by lowering interest rates to pump more money into the economy risking inflation. The party of the Constitution is fine with the president usurping the power of Congress. For the Republican Party/Conservative movement hypocrisy is a way of life.
