Liberal Hypocrisy

Goddamn tree huggers. JP is as open-minded and evenly-politically-keeled as a freshly-carved gavel, so he loves to see examples of the doublespeak spouted by both left and right wing politics.

Enter Conservapedia. JP got this tip from his partner-in-crime Dr. H.J. Nugz. While JP loves to comment on the magnitude of Frank Lasee's stupidity, Dr. Nugz prefers to interact with the brilliant slew of free-market nutjobs over at Conservapedia.

Luckily, they've put together a veritable compendium of logical abuses committed by liberals. For example:
George Clooney, actor

Hearing that fellow actor and guns-rights advocate, Charlton Heston, suffers from Alzheimer's disease, he said: "I don't care. Charlton Heston is the head of the National Rifle Association. He deserves whatever anyone says about him."[1]

Clooney stared in the film The Peacemaker, in which he played an American military man defending the country from a nuclear attack; scenes in the film showed him using a gun to defend himself and others.

Mark Wahlberg, actor

Upon meeting Charlton Heston on the set of the remake of Planet of the Apes, [Mark Wahlberg|Wahlberg] rudely told Heston, "It was very disturbing meeting you." Later, Wahlberg would have this to say at the MTV Movie Awards: "I believe Charlton Heston is America's best villain because he loves guns so much. Maybe he should get the award for being president of the National Rifle Association."

Wahlberg's character in Planet of the Apes uses a gun to defend himself and other humans from the apes who would rule over them.

I feel like I'd be adding insult to injury by saying anything more. My only suggestion: Conservapedia is missing all of the liberally-hypocritical lawyers out there. "Attorney Tree Hugger argued for punitive damages in case X but then turned around, and, in case, Y, argued against punitive damages!"
