Kudos to Sean Hannity!: As you all know, I abhor political hypocrisy on both sides of the aisle. I think Vitter (user of prostitutes), Stephens (corruption probe), and Craig (resign, not resign, resign) all need to go. They are embarrassment to the GOP.

But this week he has done an feature on Edwards making millions on the foreclosure of homes in New Orleans, the place where he launched his campaign. And now showing Gore getting off his Gulfstream and climbing into a limo on the way to a speech on Global Warming.

But Bobby Kennedy Jr. has articulated their stand perfectly. When asked about his flying around on a private jet and speaking on global warming he said, "Look, we aren't asking people to change their behavior, we are asking the government to make them change their behavior." Is this not akin to me espousing a view against abortion while allowing my wife to get an abortion, or speaking against gay marriage while trying to pick up men in a bathroom in Minneapolis. Your lifestyle needs to match your views. If you are a tree hugger then you have to have a responsibility to lead by example. This means that you go to speeches on public transportation or a Prius. It is really that simple. You don't charter a jet that cost $7,850 an hour to operate.

Unless you are a multimillionaire liberal.
