Broken Hypocrisy Meter entries for the day: Bob Vander Plaats and Bam Bam Barber

I couldn't decide which item was more likely to break the hypocrisy meter, so I'm passing along both.

First, look at this epic FAIL appeal for attention, via Think Progress LGBT: "The Family Leader Uses Anonymous 'Hateful' Comments To Raise Anti-Gay Money"

Bob Vander Plaats, President of the Iowa conservative Christian organization The FAMiLY LEADER, is taking umbrage at random anonymous comments from online threads in a plea to raise money for the group.

...The FAMiLY LEADER thinks it's hateful to be called hateful and feels that random anonymous comments (aside from perhaps "Marc Jacobs") are an "outrageous" destructive force. This, from the group who called being gay a "public health risk" akin to second-hand smoking. Often, bullies who seek allies to vindicate their bullying are implying their tacit awareness of the negative impact they're making.

If Reisetter and Vander Plaats are concerned with "haters" in online feedback, perhaps they should pledge to help monitor and clean up the comment threads on "It Gets Better" anti-bullying videos.

Or how about Right Wing Watch brings you the latest mewlings from "Liberty" Counsel's Matt Barber, who really enjoys self stroking victimization:

Today during Faith and Freedom, Matt Barber of Liberty Counsel said that liberalism is a "rebellion and a hatred toward God." Barber will find himself in good company in the conservative movement, as Rep. Todd Akin (R-MO) similarly declared that "at the heart of liberalism is really a hatred for God" and the American Family Association's Bryan Fischer argued that "liberals hate God." While Barber tried to explain that he was only referring to liberal beliefs rather than liberals themselves, he went on to say that "their hearts are hardened, their hearts are blackened, and frankly I just feel sorry for them."
