Democrats Fight Wall Street "Crooks," Recieve Salary From Same

Largest Hedge Fund Donors Show Bipartisan Support, though Democrats Collect More - ABC News

Nothing like some hypocrisy to make Washington spin. Call them crooks, liars and the worst sort of exploiters. Then, a day later, have a nice lunch with them and pocket a cool 100,000 or so.

If that's not Washington, nothing is.

At least the GOP is playing the smart hooker role, and not biting the pimp hand that feeds her.

you might want to rtake few minutes to consider what the word 'hypocrisy' means.

it does not mean attempting to end a reprehensible practice that you have benefited from.

if the Democrats had condemned the Republicans for taking money from people they had themselves taken money from while attempting to preserve their right to take that money... THAT would be hypocrisy.

neither McCain nor Feingold was hyporcritical in proposing their bill though both had benefited from the practices the bill would have outlawed.

We were not hypocritical in convening the Geneva Convention even though it outlaws 'carpet bombing' of civilian populations which we did prior to the convention.

doesn't mean you can cast stones at the political party you do not belong to, but you might want to find a different insulting term to use.
