I could be wrong but thought his real point is that they are busy day in and day out walking the walk while others are content only talking the talk.

I read it again but I don't see a hypocrisy theme in that article. I saw only that some people are walking the walk and other people are off doing something else. The author seems to take as a given that the people who are walking that particular walk are somehow better than people who are walking some other walk or dancing or running or peddling. I don't buy that. I'm way too Randian to put self-sacrifice on a special pedestal. Nor am I prepared to put this cause on a pedestal over other causes for which people sacrifice themselves.
