    So Much For the "Social Reformer" Tag

    Nice to know that I'm not the only one here that can see through this "family values" double-talk to the truly rotting core of hypocrisy beneath. Barack Obama wisely said let's leave this alone. We have bigger things to talk about. Yet the double-standard is too big and too important not to point out.

    So called "social reformer" wants a pass for his/her own behavior while dictating what other people should do in their families and their lives.

    Barack is right. It should be a private matter. But because the GOP is in thrall to the Christian Right, it will not be. Too bad for Bristol.
