Your original post made no distinction of kind or measure. It was a sweeping statement about outrage over hypocrisy.

Now, as for the subject at hand. No one cares if you smoke. I sure don't. But if A) you're the President and you tell the world you've stopped smoking, and the press uses that as just another example of your amazing personal strength, when you're really sneaking puffs out in the Rose Garden, or B) lecturing society on the “right way” to eat while using your position as First Lady to add further burdens of regulation on food processors and restaurants, and restricting food choices for private citizens as you're indulging in the very same meals that you label unhealthy, then yeah, you're going to catch some flak.
