First of all, see the link Dr. Bob provided. It is by no means clear that Jesus called all Pharisees hypocrites.
Second, there were many instances where Jesus may not have fallen under the guidelines Dr. Bob has established for this board. Were Jesus have said to a fellow poster "You are much like whitewashed tombs, which appear fair outside, but inside are full of dead men's bones and everything foul.", I'm certain he would have received a Please Be Civil. Had he said it more than once he may have received a block. And if anyone on this board were to say that to another poster, explaining that he was quoting Jesus, that person would also get a please be civil. Dr. Bob has certain standards of behavior that he expects on this board. Quoting the bible does not excuse anyone from following them. Jesus would have had many other forums for his message. If he wanted to speak here, he would have to abide by the rules.
