They are control freaks. Their favorite phrases all start with "thou shalt not" and they all end with things they feel entitled to forbid others from doing--even if they do it themselves.

In Germany, where I am stationed, there was a "conservative (not)" politician from the predominantly Catholic state of Bavaria who was a vocal opponent of abortion rights. His Ryan-like noise diminished when it became public knowledge that he had gotten his mistress (he was married) pregnant and coerced her into getting an abortion.

Look how many Republican "pro-life" politicians have been exposed in a similar way in the USA.
