[Brilliant]

When Democrats McDermott and Bonior called the President a liar, the other Democrats said that it was unAmerican to criticize them for exercising their freedom of speech and participating in a debate over such an important topic. Gephardt verbally supports the President, and they are outraged, demanding that he step down.

Although the Democrats are largely hypocritcal over this issue, I think that you have to question Gephardt's motives. He's just following in Gore's footsteps. Gore elevated himself to Vice President by being one of only a few Democrats to back Bush Sr. in 1991. Now Gephardt is betting that lightning will strike twice.

The hypocrisy is astounding.
