Is there any hypocrisy in a limousine liberal, who earned several hundred million dollars on Wall Street, driving a gas guzzler, at a global warming speed, without a seat belt?

It’s certainly hypocrisy when the chief law-enforcement officer breaks the laws he’s supposed to be enforcing (especially if he signed such a bill into law himself or otherwise expressed support for the law to get votes) but there’s something worse than hypocrisy.

Someone who really does practice what he preaches, while advocating that it be forced onto the rest of us, is even more dangerous than the hypocrite, because he’s a True Believer.

There are cultures of Life and cultures of death in the world, two stories today make that easy to see.

On the one hand you have radical Islamic cultures like that of the Iranian leadership where death is almost revered:TEHRAN, April…

OH, THE HUMANITY!!!

What Roe v Wade really accomplished was to make it possible for a woman and a doctor enter into covert open conspiracy to commit homicide/infanticide.

Fixed.

William, a bit lit up today I see. Good stuff.

William, yes and yes.

INC,

Yes!

Thanks.

William

Great assessment William, especially about the misuse of the term “tragedy”. Made me think hard about that.

Entelechy on April 19, 2007 at 12:46 AM

Thank you, Entelechy for your encouraging comment.

The report is that Corzine’s SUV was traveling at 91 MPH in a 65 MPH zone, and yet he wasn’t wearing a seat belt (and his air bag didn’t deploy).

Entelechy on April 19, 2007 at 12:46 AM

I am aware of that. After I posted my previous post I realized that I intended to include that in the paragraphs about Corzine and the facts about the case, his driver, the New Jersey State Trooper putting other drivers’ lives in danger, by speeding at 91 mile per hour, breaking the law, while Governor Corzine was not safely seat belted, also breaking the law, or is it not breaking the law when law enforcement, and the Governor, chief executive of the state is doing it?

My wife and I and our children travel New Jersey highways from time to time. The speed limit signs on major highways, or expressways, do state that the speed limit is 65 miles per hour and that fines are doubled in certain areas.

Entelechy on April 19, 2007 at 12:46 AM

No, there is not hypocrisy in left wingers, liberals, Democrats doing whatever they want, no matter what they say about conservatives and others, because, as you must know, they are good people, and, if they do something wrong, it is only because they are human and that can be understood and forgiven. After all, they are really, really good people, and they are trying so hard.

Otherwise, if you are conservative, have values and mores which differ from theirs, then you are an evil, demonic person and nothing you do is right, nothing you do is good, and if you mess up, it is unforgivable, and you should be dragged over shards of glass, hanged, and burned at the stake, just for warm up, before they continue to make your life a living hell!

Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) on Wednesday listed the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold a ban on “partial birth abortions” along with the killing of 32 people at Virginia Tech, in describing what she called a hard and emotional week.

Yeah. It must be such an emotional drain, such an affront to one’s dignity that babies will be protected by law from being butchered while exiting mother’s womb during induced birth, as takes place in late term, D & X abortions.

Poor Barbara Boxer. I feel for you.

Quote continued:

“I know this is a very hard and emotional week given everything that’s happened,” Boxer said at the opening of a speech on global warming in Washington, D.C.

Emotional for who, Barbara?

She then listed “continuing violence in Iraq … the accident that our good, dear friend Gov. Corzine is suffering from,

Dear Friend, Governor Corzine, was allegedly traveling while breaking the law, a law enforced on every Joe Schmo, and every Suzie Schmo that is not an elitist politician who is in a position to tell everyone else what to do, but who does not follow the law himself.

Governor Corzine, who has been arrogant, condescending, and part of a corrupt political Party in New Jersey, the Democrat Party, was traveling while refusing to wear his seat belt, thus making the New Jersey State Trooper who was his chauffeur an accessory to breaking the law by driving while the governor was not seat belted. The State Troopers pull common people over and issue expensive violation citations to everyone else who travels in New Jersey without wearing their seat belt. Is governor Corzine above the law?

It appears to be the case.

What about the old adage that seat belts save lives and reduce severity of injuries, Governor Corzine?

I don’t wish “You got what you deserve” on you, Governor. I merely tell you that you acted above the law, a law that you and others enforce upon us, the public, but don’t follow yourself. By not wearing your seat belt, your injuries might likely be worse than if you were seat belt.

Will you now preach to the choir, meaning, preach to the rest of us, that we should be safe and buckle up?

Best of healing and recovery to you, Governor Corzine. Also, please learn some humility and stop living like you are “Above the Law,” or are you telling us something, like “I AM above the law. I am the Governor!”

You are not above the laws of physics, gravity, force, inertia, etc. That’s for sure. None of us are above the law when it comes to natural phenomenon like those!

Barbara,

Regarding the “Continuing violence in Iraq,” perhaps if the left wing, fifth column, anti-Bush democrats were on the side of the US instead of trying at every turn to help the enemy to succeed in Iraq, perhaps things would be going better in Iraq.

Take a look in the mirror, Barbara Boxer, and check all the nasty things you have said and done to the US, the Troops, President Bush, and his cabinet members. Then tell us that you don’t contribute to the heavy burden that our troops are carrying in Iraq. Won’t you admit that you give aid and comfort to the enemy?

Quote continued:

She then listed ……. the Virginia Tech tragedy

Tragedy?

Like the same term used for the 9/11/2001 attack on US soil being called a “tragedy?”

Sorry, 9/11/01 was a vile, evil attack, a barbaric, hate filled assault on innocent men, women, and children. It was not a tragedy.

The shootings at VT was not a tragedy. It was a violent assault, murder!

A tragedy is an accidental or natural event which causes sadness, injury, or death.

A tree falling on your house and killing your dog is a tragedy. A cautious person falling off a ladder, breaking their back, and undergoing years of therapy, or even dying, is a tragedy.

Losing your house to a fire set by a lightening strike is a tragedy.

An attack by Islamic Jihadis, or an attack by a crazy student from Korea which results in the murder of innocent men, women, or children, is not a tragedy. It is a massacre, a violent attack, an outrage!

Let’s stop calling these cold blooded, hate filled, vile acts, and the resultant carnage, “Tragedies.”

It reduces the severity of the event and the resultant loss of life, as well as reduces the significance of the pain and suffering endured by those affected by these vile acts.

Labeling these barbaric, malevolent murders “Tragedy” also softens the impact that these acts have, as well as softens the act itself perpetrated by malicious, cruel, sadistic, vicious killers, making it sound almost like they “accidentally stepped on your new spring flowers. What a tragedy!”

Quote continued:

She [Barbara Boxer] then listed ….. … and today a Supreme Court decision that I believe endangers women’s health.”

Poor Barbara Boxer!

The Supreme Court upholds the protection of innocent babies from inhumane, barbaric slaughter in a procedure that medical doctors say is never necessary to save the life of the mother, and results in the barbaric execution death of an innocent baby, and Barbara is upset!

What kind of morals and values do you have, Barbara?

You are supporting an unnecessary procedure which is not used to save a mother’s live. It involves inducing labor over the course of several days, causing the woman to give birth to her baby, then killing her baby.

How does that save a woman’s live?

It doesn’t save a woman’s live, Barbara. It destroys a living human baby.

If mother’s life were in danger, this procedure would NOT save her life. It would injure her, or even kill her.

Emergency surgery, a Cesarean section, etc., would be more in order to save her life, not inducing labor for a few days, then delivering a baby and killing that baby!

Barbara, have you taken the time to learn any Human Embryology, or anything about abortion, abortion procedures, injuries and infections resulting from abortions, emotional and psychological disorders resulting from abortion, and the long term damaging effects upon woman as a result of abortion?

Perhaps you should take the time. If you are fair minded, and, based on your behavior, I have no reason to believe that you are, if you DID spend time to learn, you might have an epiphany and actually decide to work to protect innocent babies from the abortionist’s slaughter mill, and protect women from the medical rape of abortion.

Barbara,

I hope your heart and mind “evolves” out of its darkness and into the light regarding these points you were concerned about. At this time your values and mores are deplorable!

William

She sounds a little verklempt

Southerners speaking Yiddish, I love it! I so can’t picture you saying this.

How did this procedure become legal…I’m going somewhere with this.

tomas on April 18, 2007 at 6:43 PM

It was hidden and obfuscated in the Privacy Clause.

What Roe v Wade really accomplished was to make it possible for a woman and a doctor enter into covert conspiracy to commit homicide/infanticide.

Awww. You know who had a hard week? The 33 32 people who were massacred at VTech. They had a bad week.

There, amerpundit. I had to fix that one. 32 people were massacred. One committed suicide.

Boxer is despicable.

The law allows the procedure to be performed when a woman’s life is in jeopardy.”

So I guess I’m confused, too. How is a woman’s life placed in jeopardy, Senator?

Bingo.
