Chelsea Clinton gets more than she bargained for when she tries to lecture people about ‘hypocrisy’
Chelsea Clinton, daughter of former President Bill Clinton and former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, recently got more than she bargained for on Twitter when she tweeted about “hypocrisy” and “words with inaction.”
“Words without action are … meaningless. Words with inaction are … just words. Words with opposite action is … hypocrisy,” Clinton tweeted Sunday afternoon.
Words without action are ... meaningless. Words with inaction are ... just words. Words with opposite action is ... hypocrisy. twitter.com/brianbeutler/s…
Clinton’s tweet came in reply to a liberal journalist — The Nation’s Brian Beutler — who ripped House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) for wearing a blue puzzle piece lapel pin to bring awareness to autism because Ryan allegedly has an agenda that seeks to “[cut] autism research and medical assistance.”
It isn’t exactly clear what Beutler was referring to, potentially Ryan’s recent failed attempt to repeal Obamacare and pass health care reform, but people found it pretty rich — and lacking self-awareness — that Clinton would try to lecture about “words with inaction” and “hypocrisy.”
According to Twitter users, Clinton should be very aware of what “hypocrisy” means, given the actions of her parents and their family’s charitable organization, the infamous Clinton Foundation.
@ChelseaClinton Coming from the family you do, you should be quite familiar w/hypocrisy.
@ChelseaClinton You learned that from your mom. The hypocrisy part that is.
@ChelseaClinton Where's the millions the Found. "raised " for Haiti NONE of which those poor struggling people got? & YOU want to talk of hypocrisy.
@ChelseaClinton I DID NOT HAVE SEXUAL RELATIONS WITH THAT WOMAN . I did not steal relief money for Haiti to pay for my wedding
@ChelseaClinton That depends on what the meaning of "is" is.

@ChelseaClinton Describes your mother pretty well.
@ChelseaClinton Your family is expert in all three. We see you for who you are not what your team tweets.
@ChelseaClinton That's why the Democrats are now known for being mostly hypocrites. They condemn something, but get caught doing exactly what they condemn.
And one person just wanted the world to stop talking about Clinton, who many Democrats believe should run for political office despite her insistence that she doesn’t plan to:
@ChelseaClinton Yep. And ironic to hear coming from someone whose fame derives solely from who her parents are. Stop trying to make @ChelseaClinton happen.
