Yeah, there's a big difference, Acorn is registering people who are demographically likely to vote Democratic and this guy is a Republican. Acorn is therefore inherently evil and must be attacked for any hint of impropriety they can trump up, while this guy is inherently good and we don't need to be concerned about a minor mistake.
I hate the rich people's attitude that rich people keeping all their money is more important than government letting non-rich people have a decent existence and society not falling apart. I hate the religious right's intent to impose a Christian theocracy. But above all, I hate the unbridled hypocrisy that's not even tempered with feigned embarrassment when they're called on it.
Ah, but what you fail to grasp is that these rich people don't think they are rich. But still, they feel that they are being taxed to death and that any increase in taxes they have to pay is an offense worse than any further indignity that may have to be suffered by people who are already used to suffering anyway.
