The latest hypocrisite is the person who is blasting Ron Paul for wasting tax payer money by flying first class. Air force one reportedly costs $56,518 per hour to operate in February of 2009. In 2011, the Air Forces reports it now costs $181,757 per hour to operate. Obama's trip to Hawaii reportedly cost approximately $4 million. How can an administration have such lavish vacation costs to transport the president around yet blast Ron Paul for flying first class?
Yuri, a character from Doctor Zhivago, says, "Your health is bound to be affected if, day after day, you say the opposite of what you feel, if you grovel before what you dislike.. Our nervous system isn't just fiction, it's part of our physical body, and it can't be forever violated with impunity."
Don't be surprised if Obama, Geithner or Clinton get a touch of the flu. If they do not, it is because Boris Pasternak did not consider the existence of hypocrisites that genuinely feel their moral position is righteous.
I wrote a novel about hypocrisy in the medical field. Some will find it fascinating reading, at least that is what I am told.
