3. when it comes to Clinton, all RW talking points eventually become LW talking points
"progressives" are developing a raging case of Clenis envy.

9. Funny, I was just pointing that out to a Hillary supporter here who does the same thing.
When the Hsu story broke here was the response from a Hillary supporter, one who is yukking it up in this thread and displaying an even higher level of hypocrisy than when originally confronted;

31. google: Obama Alexi Giannoulias mob

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=3499266&mesg_id=3500380

Now, seeing as though you Hillary people are so concerned with the "they do it too" defense,I would hope to see you all point out to the poster just how much you hate that.Otherwise, you're all going to look pretty damn hypocritical.

Unless of course, like the Republicans, you have excuses why it's ok for you to do something but it's wrong when other's do it. :shrug:

11. people like you never understand the concept of hypocrisy

Now, seeing as though I'm not so concerned with the "they do it too" defense as I am with pure candidate supported hypocricy, usually born from plain ignorance of recent history.

12. It would seem I understand it perfectly and it's you that is having the trouble.

And on edit -

Now, seeing as though I'm not so concerned with the "they do it too" defense as I am with pure candidate supported hypocricy

Yet you said this the other day;

resorting to the "but Hillary did it" defense is not a defense at all.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3502615#3502740

So it would seem that it does indeed bother you enough to scold someone for using it...when it's directed at Hillary, of course.

Once again, you try to convince people you care about hypocrisy but turn a total blind eye to your own.

13. Question
I am constantly reminded that Obama is the "candidate of change", yet, everytime he makes a boo-boo, his supporters shout "CLINTON DID IT TOO!" Care to explain?

Those people are being hypocrites.It's a weak excuse no matter which side engages in it, including Hillary supporters (as I showed) or Kucinich supporters, such as myself.
