Jesus vs. Limbaugh – ‘Society needs hypocrisy’

It’s not difficult to be a better Christian than Rush Limbaugh. Hell, I’m a non-practicing Jew, and I’m a better Christian than Rush Limbaugh

The oxy-moron (a few minutes ago) on the fact that adulterer Mark Sanford was a big sanctity-of-marriage, religious right politician: “Society needs hypocrisy.”

Jesus on the subject of hypocrisy: “Judge not that ye be not judged.”

Brief eavesdrops on nutcase talk radio is one of my vices, and Atlanta’s talk-radio dial only turns to the right. Today, all these guys are playing logical Twister to explain why politicians from the party that dragged the country through an impeachment over adultery should get a pass for their own transgressions. It’s hilarious.

But you gotta love Limbaugh’s brazen knee-slappers. His point: Hypocritical adulterers are more laudible than non-hypocritical ones, because they have “standards”: “Give me a society any day where there is hypocrisy rather than one where there is moral equivalency.”
