Free market supporters love to use the hypocrisy argument against statists. It's been around a long time. To name a few examples that come to mind:
- The health care of Senators and Congressmen is better than what Americans would get in the plans of those politicians.
- Al Gore's house leaves a huge carbon footprint. Political leaders from around the world flew carbon-spewing jets to Copenhagen.
- Nancy Pelosi's relatives flew military jets instead of commercial airlines.
- A Canadian politician goes to America for his heart surgery.
You can probably think of more examples. None of these is actually hypocrisy. The politicians involved all believe they are in a special class to which the rules do not apply. It's not hypocrisy, it's the prerogative of power.
