Some Candidates Are More Equal Than Others.

Call Clinton Hiltery? Hey, no problem! Call her a witch, a bitch, a bush clone? Fair as fair can be. Slam her on her marriage or her husband's philandering? Why not? Post her picture next to one of bush, with the caption "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss"? *Shrug* There's more. You know them.

Criticize Edwards or Kucinich, the DU favorites, even substantively, and to echo a turn of phrase that was much in vogue among some a few weeks back; you become the target of "ritual shaming"- or to put it more simply, righteous indignation rings metaphorically throughout DU.

It's the hypocrisy, stupid.

DISCLAIMERS:

I do not support Clinton or any other candidate who voted for the IWR- not in the primaries. I will crawl through broken glass to vote for the dem nominee in November of '08.

I am not justifying my use of an offensive phrase in regards to some of Edwards' supporters.

Yes, I realize that a certain amount of hypocrisy should be glanced over, but it's reached such a level, that I don't see why it shouldn't be called for what it is.
