Rush Limbaugh
“If people are violating the law by doing drugs," Rush Limbaugh pontificated in 1995, “they ought to be accused and they ought to be convicted and they ought to be sent up.” Eight years later, the radio giant was himself under investigation for violating drug laws, and after three years of legal wrangling, Limbaugh was charged in Florida with fraudulently concealing information to procure prescription drugs. Translation: He allegedly “doctor shopped” to feed an addiction to painkillers. Prosecutors agreed to drop the charge if Limbaugh, now 57, remained in rehab and reimbursed the state $30,000 in legal fees. So much for throwing away the key.

Eliot Spitzer
Jaws dropped in March when the New York Times identified holier-than-thou New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer as Client 9 of a big-bucks prostitution ring. Wasn’t Spitzer, 49, the white knight who vowed to restore ethics to Albany? The guy who, as state attorney general, routed out Wall Street corruption? The same crusading prosecutor who only years earlier had busted up prostitution rings? Indeed it was. Spitzer resigned, the investigation continues, and behavioral psychologists gain a textbook case of hypocrisy.

Marion Jones
Among America’s greatest athletes, Jones, 32, won five medals at the 2000 Sydney Olympics and for years slammed suspicions that she had used performance-enhancing drugs. But in 2007, Jones came clean, telling federal investigators that her 2003 denials under oath were lies. “The fastest woman on earth” was sentenced to six months in prison and 400 hours of community service for her fibs (and role in a bad-check scam). So what makes Jones a hypocrite instead of just a cheater? Her moral posturing: “I am against performance enhancing drugs,” she wrote in large red letters in her 2004 autobiography. “I have never taken them and I never will take them.”

Bill Bennett

Education secretary for President Reagan and the first President Bush’s drug czar, Bill Bennett, 65, calls himself in his official bio “a man of strong, reasoned convictions.” He writes books with titles like "The Moral Compass" and "The Book of Virtues: A Treasury of Great Moral Stories." Basically, not the kind of guy expected to lose an estimated $8 million over a decade at video poker and slot machines. But in 2003, the Washington Monthly revealed Bennett had done just that. Perhaps recalling his own harsh words toward irresponsible addicts, America’s morality maven said he would quit gambling.

Laurie David
The go-to green gal for Oprah Winfrey and other media titans, Laurie David, 50, has done more to sound the global warming alarm than almost anyone except her chum Al Gore. She even produced the former vice president’s Oscar-winning documentary, "An Inconvenient Truth." So why does the soon-to-be ex-wife of comedian Larry David keep homes in both California and Massachusetts, and fly a private jet between the two? “It’s not about being perfect. It’s about doing something,” she tells Condé Nast Traveler. “If we’re looking for perfection, we’ll never, ever get there.”

[amigo Jorge]

Ted Haggard
He was pastor to thousands, president of the National Association of Evangelicals and consultant to presidential strategist Karl Rove. Ted Haggard, 52, was also a regular customer of male prostitute Mike Jones, who in 2006 claimed monthly, drug-fueled romps with the preacher. Haggard confessed to “sexual immorality” and resigned from his Colorado Springs’ New Life Church. As Jones later told the New York Times, “Here is Ted preaching about being shameful — You won’t see the kingdom of God if you’re gay, and blah, blah, blah — and then he sneaks around with me.”

[amigo Jorge]

Laura Schlessinger
Radio’s Dr. Laura berates callers for premarital sex and cohabitation, and working while raising children. Recently on “Today,” she said wives who don’t focus on their husband’s needs are partly to blame if he cheats. One would assume that Schlessinger, 61, has lived a moral life. Well, except for the time a boyfriend snapped nude photos of her, while she was married to another man. When the pics surfaced in 1998, Schlessinger, who actually isn’t a shrink (she has a doctorate in physiology), denied their veracity before coming clean: “I was my own moral authority,” she said in Newsweek. “The inadequacy of that way of life is painfully obvious today.”

[amigo Jorge]

Clarence Thomas or Anita Hill
There’s no way to reconcile the testimonies of Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill at his 1991 Supreme Court confirmation hearings. Hill accused Thomas, her former boss, of sexual harassment in the early 1980s; he denied her charges, and the Senate confirmed his nomination by a vote of 52 to 48. Both vehemently claimed the upper moral hand. Which means that either Thomas, 60, or Hill, 52, perjured himself or herself in front of Congress — and went on to interpret and teach U.S. law as a Supreme Court justice or a Brandeis University professor.

[amigo Jorge]

Strom Thurmond
This controversial son of the South led the splinter party Dixiecrats in the 1948 presidential campaign on a pro-segregation platform. After losing his White House bid, Thurmond served a record 47 years in the U.S. Senate, punctuated by his 24-hour, 18-minute filibuster (another record) against the 1957 civil rights bill. Yet throughout this era, he knew he had fathered a child of an African-American housekeeper. The child, Essie Mae Washington-Williams, was 78-years-old when Thurmond died at age 100 and it became public that she was his daughter. As the New York Times indelicately put it, Washington-Williams is "the unacknowledged mixed-race daughter of the Senate's most notorious white supremacist."

I guess you "forgot" the illegall land deals that Harry "Dingy" Harry Reid did in His home state, Oh..
.and the "exemption" that Pelosi gave to the tuna guys in the Marshall Islands for a HUGE contribution to her fund.  Funny that you liberal Socialist only find fault in conservatives.

[Midnight Rider]

And how come it always has to come down to name calling? 

Yeah, how come?  It's so easy to do from a distance.

Why do conservatives insist on using the words "liberal" and "socialist" all the time?

I know Jorge, and he would give anyone here the shirt off his back, or open his home to anyone.  Makes me sick to my stomach for ANYONE here to imply anything derogatory about the man.

The extreme right on this site need to take a chill pill about this chit.   

[BillH]

Not calling names.  Just asking Jorge to list his references.  I stand by mine.  I consider all CVO's brothers, but when a liberal socialist takes this venue to puke his position, I will defend  America.    I guess we will see where this forum resides.

God bless America

Yep, guess we will. Damn sure it ain't gonna land on pounding Jorge. And read your frickin post. It was 3rd grade name calling. And you sure as hell don't stand alone regarding defending our country. Cripes, we've got lots of bona fide heroes on the site that dress every day to do just that. And lastly, if you want to challenge an opinion, go for it. You spoke of Reid and Pelosi and that's fine. Perhaps a better tact might of been to tell their tale rather than jump right into the "liberal socialist" crap.

And yep, God bless America. Greatest country on earth and I'm proud of it, despite both parties shenanigans.

[Hoist!]

I saw no reason to insult Jorge here whatsoever. Go ahead, call me a liberal or socialist! HaHaHa!!!! Have a little respect if you're gonna talk about political BS here. This is a motorcycle site. Ya wanna talk politics, at least keep things civil. We're family here, regardless of our personal views. Ya wanna insult someone, go back to insulting me. We can have more fun that way!!!

There are many members of BOTH parties that belong on that list.  There are many conservatives missing from the list, and there are many Liberals missing from that list.

I am a conservative, not a republican.  Yet I can see where there are some republicans and conservatives missing.

By the way I believe I saw that exact list on MSN web site yesterday, it may have been a different site, but the list came from the web news.

I will not speak for the entire forum, I will speak for myself.  Jorge and his wife are two of the finest people I have ever met.  I really don't care what their political views might be.  I do care that they (like many of the fine folks I have met through this forum) would go out of their way to help anyone that was in need.  Jorge posted some stuff he felt was informative and entertaining (and without political agenda).  If you do not like or dispute the facts of his post, please post your thoughts.  We all would like to be more informed.  But personal attacks and name calling are childish and embarrassing.  Especially if you don't know the person you are attacking.

[J-Carr]

As a registered republican who considers himself at least on the conservative side of moderate, I take serious offense to BillH's remarks.  They, like most extremists on the right or left, disgust those of us who try to intelligently debate our postion, while giving consideration to an opposing side's viewpoint.  Those of us that listen, learn.  Those that name call, scream, yell, and preach their position just alienate those that might have been interested in considering alternatives.

Jorge has posted many things, both helpful and funny and I for one appreciate all of them.  As much as one can consider someone who is only known through a web forum I can consider him a friend.  Obviously to survive some of the pain and loss he has and emerge with a sense of humor and a willingness to help others speaks volumes about his character.

I don't know, or care what his political leanings may be.  Every name in this post, which is from the msn.com website is accurate.  And ther eare both conservatives and liberals in it.  Very balanced in my opinion.  And seeing that hypocrisy helps me to learn to evaluate both sides and LEARN.

Jorge,  Gracias Mi Amigo.  I appreciate your effort.

Ride Safe,

Bill:

I am an immigrant like millions of people in this beautiful country. In the same way that fathers ,grandfathers and great-grandfathers of many of us came to this country in the 1800's and 1900's. I have been an american citizen for 25 years and like you I pay taxes and can vote. I love this country and have been living more than the half of my live.........and I defend United States in all the aspects like I defend my native country.

My intention when I initiated this thread was not reflect my political affiliation or my political thoughts but only pass an information that I read in "Yahoo News" which I liked and you know why? Becasue I hate the hypocrisy in all the aspects whenever came from: rich or poor, white, yellow or black, republican or democrat, comunist or capitalist, liberal or conservative, etc. It's simple....I wanted to mean the hypocrisy of those people disregarding their political views.

And I guess he ses now where this forum resides! A buncha brothers and sisters that will stand by each other, and help each other, regardless of their personal or political views. That the only thing that matters here is our love for our familes, our bikes, our country and this great site! You attack one of us, you attack all of us. I hope you've learned something about this great place and our character. Frankly, I think an apology is in order here for you not to be considered as a name that this title speaks to!

This forum "resides" in the character of each member, and has nothing to do with their political views, spirituality, race, creed, or national origin...and everything to do with who the person really is in their heart of hearts.  If it makes you more comfortable to pigeon hole people into nice little compartments, then that is your choice.  However, few people I have ever met in my life can be so easily catagorized...most are a mixture of various and sometimes conflicting ideas and viewpoints.

I would recommend that you defend YOUR America in a different manner of your choosing, because MY America welcomes the free exchange of information/thoughts, regardless of whether I agree with them or not.  THAT, sir, is what this country stands for, in case you have forgotten, and not narrow minded statements and labeling.

I, for one, have never been able to be SO certain of a thing that I was not at least willing to listen to an opposing vewpoint with an open mind.  To do otherwise puts the foundations of America in jeopardy.  Wise people always question the status quo, IMO.

I guess I am too shallow to get rilled up about this. I listen to Rush but am not offended by someone exposing his drug addiction. I just liked the great photos and saved them on my computer along with the text. Interesting how a persons lifetime achievements can be ignored and a one paragraph statement sums up everything we remember about them. Some one needs to add  Bush, Clinton and some of the others mentioned.

I have read Jorge's posts for a long time and there is not a finer gentleman on this site. Jorge you have  an open invitation to my home any time that you are in the area. And living in Louisiana I have the referenced cajun cornmeal and can provide, crawfish, oysters, shrimp, fish, froglegs, or various other  meats/fish that surprisingly all  taste like chicken, but no small children.    So come on over any time you desire.     jj
