Thomas jefferson's purchase of the louisiana territory could be viewed as hypocritical because?

Thomas Jefferson's purchase of the Louisiana Territory could be viewed as hypocritical because the action was antithetical to his political beliefs. although many would say he was a hypocrite for agreeing to this presidential decision, others adverse. one should make decisions for the greater good of the country regardless of his political affiliation, hypothetically speaking, him being a democratic-republican. this raised much controversy. those who viewed him as a hypocrite said his action was unconstitutional, although it wasn't necessarily stated in the constitution, therefore it was implied so. 

Jefferson was considered a strict constitutionalist, not wishing to overstep his limited powers. even though the Louisiana purchase advantaged the U.S. by doubling the nations size.
