Then there's the matter of lying. Senator Craig jumped all over former President Clinton as being "bad, nasty and naughty" for having a consensual affair in his office with an adult woman and then lying about it. I'm not going to defend the president for what was clearly inappropriate and wrongful conduct, but at least he finally came clean about it. The senator is still playing the blame game.
I don't believe in outing people who prefer to keep their sexual orientation private. But exposing hypocrisy is the appropriate business of the media.

Clinton coming clean? Yeah after he was forced to give a blood sample and go under oath. Pleassse.
Interesting standard the 'Rats got there, ain't it?
So hypocrisy disqualifies candidates?
I guess that eliminates Sily Pony(TM)
IT’s a typical pile-on.
I shudder whenever I see her name...cuz I can hear her nailsonachalkboard voice in my head. Yecch.
D’oh.
That should be Silky
Yes, indeed. In our national struggle against hypocracy, let us all hold up Bill Clinton as a role model for how the matter should be handled ...
Estrich looks like the hand puppet ‘lambchop’ and sounds like she’s been smoking camel unfiltered cigerettes since age six. She’s ate up with the goofies politically, and when pressed resorts to the most current DNC talking points memo.
That said, she’s right. Craig has to go, NOW.
And by the same token, every Democrat who is a hypocrite should resign. When we’re done, Washington will be a ghost town.
Someone should ask Susie how long and how much it cost to get Clinton to “come clean” ...geesh those words shouldn’t be used together when speaking of Clintoon.
And dims still try to say he was impeached for having sex. Nooooooo, he was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice.
“A consensual affair IN THE OFFICE”, did Estrich mean to say that? Clinton put the women’s movement back 20 years!
Clinton coming clean? Yeah after he was forced to give a blood sample and go under oath. Pleassse.
You're not getting it. Liberals aren't hypocrites because they have very very low standards. They're mission is to point out conservative hypocrisy - if they didn't do that, then they'd be hypocritical. The conservative, with higher standards, is the hypocrite if he doesn't live up to his higher standards.
It'd be like you, assumably very straight, slipping up and getting a DUI then saying to yourself, 'oh, it's no big deal, gang members get DUIs all the time'.
Hypocrisy is determined from the inside - if the person preaches X, then does the opposite of X, they're a hypocrite. It nonsensical to call someone a hypocrite because they didn't live up to YOUR standards.
You had it right the first time.......
Cliton’s team was going to destroy Monica Lewinsky, it was the stained dress that saved her.
It's called defining deviancy down. And 'Rats excel at it.
I shudder when I see her face......
She might have been an adult at the time, but some Brady statistics about gun deaths of "youths" (0-25) would have included her age group in their numbers.
“””I don’t believe in outing people who prefer to keep their sexual orientation private.””
What part of *public urinal* does she not understand???
But exposing hypocrisy is the appropriate business of the media.
But only on the part of Pubbies apparently.
