We've seen, or I hope we've seen, that conservatives try to hold themselves to higher moral standards.

I made a lot of jokes about Joe Biden during the election, and I said a lot of rude things. I plan to do so if he's on the ticket in 2012.

and a hypocrite at that!

and a hypocrite at that!

I am, on many issues; you may wish to add me to your prayer concerns.

I call Joe Biden an 'idiot" (although on that one, truth may be a defense). However, if called out about it, I'd say I'm sorry and it's not appropriate. And I would mean it. I wouldn't defend my statement on the grounds that's it's okay for me to say it because "I'm a conservative, so my insults get special protection."

That's where there's a difference and where there is no hypocrisy on this issue.
