Hypocrite of the week nomination: Texas Congressman Pete Session
http://bayareahouston.blogspot.com/2009/07/pete-session-republican-hypocrite-of.html

Just when you think a member of the republican party can't get any more hypocritical than being a "Christian Conservative" while banging a hooker, loving on a hot wise Argentina woman, or having an affair with your 22 year old intern, Congressman Pete Session comes forward as a candidate for republican hypocrite of the week.

Turns out Session, from Dallas, who called earmarks “a symbol of a broken Washington to the American people.” received $1.6m for a blimp company in Chicago, using an address for the request to Congress in Dallas, an address that happens to be the address of a close friend of the owner of the blimp company.
