It is STILL called hypocrisy. Try to justify it all you want. it won't go away.

No, it was not. The original post was, is, and will continue to be about the hypocrisy of the left. Even IF the costs are the same, the left is just as hypocritical. Why? They made a HUGE stick bout the cost of Bush's inauguration, going on and on and on and on and on ad nauseum about what how wasteful it all was (during a relatively strong economy) and what do they do when their candidate is elected? Do the SAME EXACT THING. That, my friend, is the very definition of hypocrisy.

Sorry Rev, but it's very different. Bush did it during a relatively strong economy...whereas Obama pulled it off during a declining economy. It's a worse form of hypocrisy.
