Mirror, mirror on the wall who's the biggest hypocrite of all?

baggers

Every time they voice a complaint they are really talking about themselves. In other words they are projecting their own flaws and defects on others. They haven't the personal insight to understand that the things they hate the most is really themselves. They can't come to gripes that they are that person, the racist, the bigot or that they are wrong. They always think others are that type of person.

That's why they hate being called racists and bigots.

My new response for people that I know, when they start letting their bagger side show, is I will put this question to them and see how they respond.

"Why I never thought you were a racist is that why are you a republican?"

They are always the pot calling the kettle black. when they accuse others of corruption, it's because they know that's what they'd do in any position of power.

Usually the person that is most vile with their comments is really the most insecure of the lot.

evident regarding their tirades about cocaine and other drug use. The legal stuff, alcohol, is okay for most but this is only pertinent to the wealthy and members of Congress.
