    Illiberals and their failure to measure up to reality
    . Always demonstrating their inferiority and why they dont belong in politics.


    LMAO.


    There is a lot of hypocrisy at work in contemporary politics—no doubt we all have our favourite examples, from the moralising adulterers to the mudslinging do-gooders. But although it is fairly easy to point the finger at all this hypocrisy, it is much harder to know what, if anything, to do about it. The problem is that hypocrisy, though inherently unattractive, is also more or less inevitable in most political settings, and in liberal democratic societies it is practically ubiquitous....

    Good to know.
    Like the one they issued to AG Holder? The one he ignored? You mean like that?
    Liberals are a clear and present danger to our nation

    The problem with hypocrisy is twofold. One, one you start finding it, you'll find it everywhere you look. It's like a disease. Two, argument from hypocrisy is a logical fallacy.
