Hypocritical Moral Whores

RECEIVED Mon., Oct. 29, 2007

Dear Editor,
    Boys and girls! Do you know what hypocritical moral whores are? Like a chameleon that changes its color when it suits its particular purpose, a hypocritical moral whore is a person who espouses their supposed heartfelt, sacred moral values about life on every possible occasion, but when it suits their particular personal political purpose, the hypocritical moral whore flip-flops like a fish out of water. Boys and girls, a perfect example of a hypocritical moral whore is your Texas governor, Rick Perry: a person who went to a church to sign the anti-gay-marriage act, a person who has been an ardent and vociferous opponent of abortion, a person who has championed gun ownership. Now the flip-flopping hypocritical moral whore Perry comes out to endorse the very liberal Rudy Giuliani: a person who has championed gay rights dressed like a woman, a man who has signed abortion rights proposals, a man who has championed tighter gun control. A thrice-married Giuliani, who went from bed to bed with two home-wreckers, the latest living in a hotel with Giuliani, while his wife, Donna Hanover, and their kids lived in Gracie Mansion, the mayor’s residence. A narcissistic Mayor Giuliani, whose sole, arrogant decision ultimately caused the deaths of hundreds of our brave emergency personnel by forcing the command control center into the 9/11 twin towers, over the objections of all of the police, fire, and safety experts who wanted to put it into a building in the Bronx. Giuliani, another hypocritical moral whore, who now tries to convince us he can keep us safe from future attacks, even though he didn’t on 9/11. I wonder if the conservative, religious Republicans – evangelicals, etc. – supporting Guiliani ask Jesus in their prayers every Sunday for forgiveness for being such disingenuous, two-faced, hypocritical, moral whores.
