Excellent etymology - fits that clown team to a T.

Thought this double standard, among so many others, was interesting:

"Safety from armed lunatics for me but not for thee" should be a Republican motto.

Agreed. We need a new word that goes beyond hypocrisy to describe conservatives, and especially religious hypocrites, for the venal "I'm the only person that matters" mentality.
