Cartoon flashback
Right wingers are accusing wealthy liberals who support Occupy of hypocrisy. As Steve Benen patiently attempts to explain (http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/political-animal/2011_11/understanding_the_nature_of_hy033348.php) , the word does not mean what they seem to think it means. But like so many right wing tropes, it’s an old, old tactic — the cartoon below dates back to 1997, but if I needed a week off I could clean up the art a bit and you’d think I wrote it last week.
