A Principled Litmus Test

A lot of people talk about principles, but it’s sometimes difficult to tell what they really mean. Sayeth KipEsquire:

One man's "litmus test" is another man's "principled stance." Calling it one in one instance and the other in another instance is every man's "hypocrisy."

Actually, the ability to explain the difference between the two could be a useful litmus test for principled persons. If you want one.
