Favorite Liberal and Conservative Hypocrisies?

Conservatives: small government, give power back.to the states!

Which would result in smaller government in conservative states, larger government in left states. Not really a hypocrisy.

Conservatives: youre a guy that wants to be a girl? another state legalizes weed? the government needs to do something!

Sure, legislating morality is not a small government position. Definitely a hypocrisy in those who hold those positions.

Conservatives: religious freedom! if a baker doesn't want to bake a gay wedding cake just go to another baker!

How is that a hypocrisy? A free person should be free to do business with whomever they want to. Legalized discrimination is the pro-freedom and conservative small government position.

Conservatives: you practice Islam? OUT OUT OUT!

I suppose one could make the argument that government enforced immigration law is big government action. But when we have a welfare state, it becomes a weird situation where one could argue either side of things and be consistent with conservatism.

There are lots of hypocrisies to hit conservatives on, you really didn't hit them.
