| gergroy said: what if one of the values you hold dear is character integrity? Hypocrisy is generally seen as a negative character trait yes? Lol, that is the political response to your thread. However, I don't think there is a politician out there that isn't some kind of hypocrit, so I say hypocrisy in politics is a moot point. |
I have asked this: What is worse, a hypocrite or a genuine slimeball who is a slimeball all the time? At least with the hypocrite you sometimes get behavior you find acceptable.
I stuck it in the political area, because the charge of hypocrisy with Romney running, and thrown at Democrats, makes it political. Sticking this in the general section would be pushing it. And also I was discussing the crying of others being hypocrites, less than the person actually being one. Such charges are used to score political points.
