Why do conservatives care more about what people say rather than what they do?

Haggard, Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Bennett, Bush, Cheney, Swaggart, Baker on and on. Talk and talk about responsibility, morals, fighting enemies, sacrifice and forgiveness, yet rarely, if ever show any of these qualities themselves. And those who support them defend them like crazy when their hypocrisy is so blatant.

And Kerry, sure he screwed up a line, and a stupid one at that, but he obviously wouldn't call the troops stupid, they jump all over him for days and days, when his votes for veterans and the troops are positive. Equate Cleland with Bin Laden, say an Iraq veteran amputee is for 'cut and run', sheesh.

It's the hypocrisy, stupid.

It's like black is white. I just don't freakin' get it.

My father, an ordained minister has said, that I am, his agnostic son, more moral than many of these holier than thou christians he knows, and more honest than probably all of them.

Sometimes I think the whole freakin' country is in denial and too blinded by self righteous arrogance to see that they are fucking the world up for my kids and their kids.

(well, re-reading that, it reads like an incoherent rant, but I hit post message anyway in the hopes someone can decipher it) :D
