Why do people assume that people that are in the public eye are perfect?Real conservatives don't. Real conservatives base their beliefs and views on history and experience ("Experience is the school of mankind, and he will learn at no other." - Edmund Burke). Experience says that no man is perfect.
Come to think of it, real Christians assume that those in the public eye are imperfect. We are all sinners.
Yet, those who are idealists will run around, using the Rush story as yet another example of the hypocrisy of the right and of Christians.
Just proves that it is easier to make sure to not understand someone, than to try to understand someone.
I find it sad that it is those on the right doing it.

good points all. Hypocrisy is the homage vice pays to virtue. The ultimate hypocrisy are those who accuse others of hypocrisy while not supporting the underlying moral claim.
