Conservative talk show host points out conservative hypocrisy
This has probably been posted already today, but it's worth seeing for anyone who hasn't seen it earlier.

A funny thing happened when WRKO conservative talk host Reese Hopkins told listeners 17-year-old Bristol Palin's pregnancy makes him question VP hopeful Sarah Palin's parenting skills. Angry Republican listeners blew up his e-mail box, claiming Bristol's condition is family business. And Hopkins, who talked extensively on-air about the suspicious Gloucester teen pregnancy pact, was a little shocked. "You called these girls sluts, you said their parents were horrible," he said of his listeners. "But in 125 e-mails I have stacked in front of me, you're telling me is not a big deal." Hopkins went back to the e-mails he received on the Gloucester story and compared them to his Palin e-mails. He found 70 listeners who flip-flopped on the teen pregnancy issue and invited them to explain. On Monday, Hopkins will broadcast live from George's Coffee Shop in Gloucester with Gloucester Daily Times reporter Patrick Anderson and editor Raymond Lamont.

3. That 70 number is interesting
It proves that it is the same people of the 29% that will support Repugs no matter what.

They are hypocrits and it works in our favor when their own call them out on their contradictions.
