Via Jim Geraghty, we all know that politicians can be shameless hypocrites, but really: How does a senator vote for a $787 billion "stimulus" bill and a $2.5 trillion health care bill that no one in his right mind believes is actually "paid for" and then attack those in Washington who "spend money they don't have"?

In fairness to Bennet, he may not be a hypocrite if endorses a national sales tax. Then Washington can spend trillions of dollars it actually has.
