But shamelessness is a must-have qualification for any GOP political or lobbying post.

That said, Meadows is shameless but clumsy - which may indeed cloud his career prospects somewhat.

or meaning for this administration. Stupid, bumbling, ham-fisted? All part of the package. Career ending? Nope -- that's just another headline.

I'm not being rhetorical. For progressives going forward, what are the best ways to use the GOP's frequent displays of hypocrisy in a way that works effectively on our side? I ask this because the mainstream press is trying to propagate the notion that because republicans are such brazen hypocrites on moral issues that it's pointless to bring it up. I don't think that's necessarily the case, but we need course correcting in order to be effective.
