Leftys were concerned about who paid for Nancy Reagan's gown just a short time ago and now not a peep about Slick Willie getting a $300 haircut while holding up flights at LAX or Michele O's personal makeup artist.
Point being, if you guys are all $hitting in your pants to condemn wild, irresponsible spending, you either condemn it across the board (when it's happening...not this "oh yea, well in retrospect Bush sucked too." That doesn't count. It's a pathetic attempt to establish credibility....where were you for 8 years?) or you keep your mouth shut. Those are the two honest options.

Or, as the 2009 Right M.O. goes, you just complain about Obama and get your panties all in a twitch when people rightfully call you out as a hypocrite.

At the very least it's making my life easy, because it's not even taking much intellectual engagement to be able to see through all of it and dismiss it, because you aren't even bothering to take the time to craft semi-coherent, logical arguments. And by "you," I mean nearly all of the Right, not just you personally. So depending on your POV, your intellectual laziness at least lets you keep some good company.

Now let's stop arguing and get back to the important stuff -- fancy haircuts and how all our vets are about to turn into suicide bombers!!!!!
