How do liberals not barf when they hear multimillionaires complain about income inequality?

People like Barack Obama, Joe Biden, John Kerry and Bill Clinton all preach against income inequaltiy while actively working towards it. And liberals do not see any hypocrisy in this?

Update:

Jay: Conservatives do not condemn people like Obama, Biden, Kerry and Clinton for making money. They condemn them for condemning other people for making money while doing the very same things they condemn. But I guess liberals cannot see the distinction.

Update 2:

xpantinasia: every study shows that conservatives give 3 to 4 times the percentage of their income to charity than liberals do. They show compassion with their own money, not someone else's, but I guess that doesn't count since they do not shout about it from the rooftops.

    income inequality is a "false flag" issue..... .....the fact that someone else is rich does not cause your poverty....you are in control of your economic status..... YOU are the cause of your poverty .....not some faceless millionaires .....

    AND YES....hypocrisy .....is always irritating and anger inducing

    Is there anything you people cannot spin to be the opposite of what it really is?
