Realistically, the "hush" should be "you're disowned"

You'd be fuckin surprised actually, some of these people will support their own family while condemning others for doing the same thing. Dick Cheney has a daughter who he is supposedly very close to who is publicly lesbian, married to a woman and he himself supported their marriage and attended. He then turns around and supports banning gay marriage. I may be under informed on this situation but it's baffling to me.

It becomes less baffling when you realize they are of the mindset that the ones making the laws are inherently different and the laws don't apply. That they're making those laws "for their own good"(meaning the people not lawmakers).

It's confusing, and essentially cognitive dissonance, but it's definitely there.

"Conservatism consists of one policy, to wit: There are those that the law protects but does not bind, and those that the law binds but does not protect."
