It's a good use of the word. It's just a shame you clouded it with fuzzy logic.Originally posted by: Red Dawn
Nice try Laura. It would have been better if she didn't try to pin this happenstance (first time in my life I ever used this word) on her mother?s attitude towards her hypocritical daughter.Originally posted by: Queasy

MURDER MYSTERY: DR LAURA'S MOTHER LAY DEAD FOR MONTHS IN APARTMENT
A gruesome scene has unfolded on North Palm Drive in Beverly Hills where Dr. Laura Schlessinger's mother has been found dead -- with the body going undiscovered for months!
MORE
Yolanda Schlessinger, 77, died all alone in her apartment months ago, authorities now believe.
Concern was not raised until a neighbor realized Schlessinger's pet bird was no longer singing!
Police went into the house and found a woman who had been dead "a substantial amount of time."
Lt. Gary Gilmond of the Beverly Hills Police Department said cops are investigating the death as a homicide.

Radio sensation Dr. Laura released a statement: "I am horrified by the tragic circumstances of my mother's death, and so sad to learn that she died as she chose to live--alone and isolated. My mother shut all her family out of her life over the years, though we made several futile attempts to stay connected. May God rest her soul."

Maybe she's the perp! :QOriginally posted by: NFS4
Show's how much she cares about her mom:disgust:
Unless they had some kind of argument and decided not to talk to each other any more, I think it's pretty f*&ked up for her to be there for months w/o someone looking for her:|:|:|

The fact that she's Dr. Laura's mom is irrelevant. She was a human being who was dead for months.

For most of her life, she was not religious and described herself as a feminist. Her harsh criticism of premarital sex and promiscuity came back to embarrass her recently when a former boyfriend sold nude pictures of her in 1975 to Hustler magazine, which were later posted on the web.
Her listeners might be surprised to learn that Dr. Laura herself is a divorcee. She began dating her second husband, Dr. Lew Bishop, while he was still married. They lived together for several years before marrying. Although she admonishes working mothers, she worked part-time after her son, now 14, was born. She preaches about the importance of family but has been long estranged from her own mother and sister.
Interesting. Now, where has she said that:
1. She was always religious
2. She was never a feminist
3. She never had premarital sex
4. She was never divorced
5. She never dated while officially married
6. She never shacked up
7. She never worked
8. Her family is a shining example of all family should be
If she did, then you are correct to call her a hypocrite. But, Fred, if she never claimed the above she is not a hypocrite. I imagine that we all have made mistakes in the past that we would not duplicate today. When I talk about wise financial management, I am not a hypocrite because 10 years ago I owed 20K on credit cards. I learned my lesson and changed my ways. It is also possible to advocate virtue that one does not currently possess. A fat guy that tells you something about proper diet isn't a hypocrite, he's just weak. Once again, here I speak from experience.
i think you've confused "liar" with "hypocrite". most people use the term "hypocrite" to indicate someone who does not practice what they preach.

Dr. Laura is a doctor. Just not a doctor of psychology.
