caroljane Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Yes, and how is pointing out hypocrisy in ideological opponents useful?Carol,Come on. It discredits them.That's kind of obvious, no?Progressives do it all the time. I don't recall your protest about the uselessness of pointing out hypocrisy when the target was, say, Rush Limbaugh.

caroljane Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Michael, I do not recall posting any analyses of Rush Limbaugh's hypocrisy, nor do I recall any such discussion being posted here at all. I have heard of such instances but certainly would not have any fun spinning on such a well-worn groove. But I am not the representative of an organization devoted to the morals and ethics of Ayn Rand, and I don't think "the other side is worse" is much of an answer to legitimate questions.

caroljane Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 You are right, I had forgotten. Did I call him a hypocrite? Probably that and more. But I was talking about his public, not any private statements which were attributed to him. And I speak only for myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selene Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 GUILTY AS CHARGED!!!!Since he is fat, and, smokes cigars, that is enough to have Canadian interlopers charge him with crimes against humanity...not only is he eating beef, which we know is evil and contributing to global warming, but he exhales CO2 along with the pollutants of cigars which, of course, will destroy the planet!These accusers should be thankful that the rest of the rational world does not use their standards to judge them.Ayn, "Judge, and be ready to be judged."A...

Ed Hudgins Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 I find it odd that others find it odd that I find it odd that we’re having a long, odd discussion about whether or not it’s odd for me to discuss certain odd topics. Of course, I freely acknowledge that perhaps I’m the odd one for finding all of this odd! So don't take this odd exchange personally.Odd, isn’t it?
