That minister who opposes same-sex marriage yet apparently pays for gay sex on the side?
The environmentalist who drives SUVs and takes private jets across the country, wasting thousands of gallons of fuel?
The conservative talk-show host who is thrice divorced and abused prescription drugs?
The president who championed women's rights, but who harrassed women (and probably raped one)?
Does the hypocrisy of the advocate mean the cause is not worth supporting? Am I now free to support same-sex marriage, thumb my nose at global warming science, abuse drugs and accost women, because even the advocates can't live up to their own standards?
Or, do you feel differently about each case? If so, WHY?
Doesn't it all boil down to what you believe about these issues in the first place?
