I have encountered far more Liberal Hypocrisy than can be related here in this space. But I was wondering about others experiences with Liberal Hypocrisy. This is one example of mine:
Ever notice how when it comes to parental abortion notification laws, liberals are adamantly opposed? They say a 14 year old girl is mature enough to make a huge life descision like this without her parents guidance. Yet take military recruiting, where liberals argue that "They're sending our 'kids' off to war" as if it's a draft and there is no free choices involved. They want to remove military recruiters from schools because, they argure, an 18 year old (legally, an adult) just isn't mature enough to make a descision like that. Convienent isn't it, how their tune changes? Utter hypocrisy? You betcha!

Ricky - I offer this example merely as a starting point. Please, by all means, best my example with one of your own! The winner will get Best Answer!

EDIT: I am fully aware that there are examples of conservative hypocrisy to be found, but that is not for this forum. This is for Liberal Hypocrisy. Please start your own thread if you wish to delve into conservative (or libertarian, for that matter) hypocrisy.

Oh please, thats the best you can do?
How about being in favor of killing innocent unborn babies, but against killing convicted rapists and child molestors?
That is MUCH more hypocritical.

In the example you mention, it's also strange that these same people would strongly oppose (as would I) a lowering of the age of consent. There have been allegations that Planned Parenthood is not fulfilling the responsibility of health care personnel to report suspected statutory rape when underage women come in for abortions.
But hypocrites are all around, on ALL sides of the spectrum, as many others have no doubt told you by now on this thread.

Where to start?
The most blaring one involving Hitlary is all of her ties to those in the feminist movement. After decades of shouting about not needing a man, keeping her own last name, touting working mothers, sexual harrassment in the workplace, etc. Her husband publically humiliates her getting a BJ from an intern close to their daughters age and she stays with him!
The Clinton's singlehandedly set the 'Woman's Lib' movement back 30 years and not one so called feminists gives a damn.

I think it is when Liberals claims republicans are war mongers, and if you research the history books, you will discover almost ALL the wars back to the Civil war were started and encouraged by the Liberal democrats, including WWI, WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. So who's the real war mongers?

Oh come on, don't be so closed minded.
Conservatives can be just as hyppocratic. Admit it!
No side is correct 100% of the time, and if you think you are, you're so hyppocritical and closed-minded its disgusting!
(Oh and you make it sound like all Liberals say what you said above. That's far from the truth. Not all liberals have the same views. Just like Conservatives.)

freedom of choice, but only what they choose
They oppose charter schools because they are ruled by the Unions and the Unions oppose giving children a chance at a better education

When they say "Don't force your morals on us". Yet everything they propose (gay marriage, abortion, smoking bans, welfare, social medicine, religion bans, etc.) is forcing their morals on other people.
What they really means is "Dont force morals I disagree with, only the ones I like." Hypocrites.

If you would spend some time looking for right-wing hypocrisy you would find an abundance. But you're too slanted in your outlook.
