Did GOP hyprocrites betray the voters?

[Guns Guns Guns]

Hypocrisy alert: House Republican freshmen are begging their leaders to bring back a certain type of earmark so that they can help companies back home in an election year. In a letter to Speaker John Boehner and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, 65 House Republican freshmen — or roughly three-quarters of the class — asked that the House consider a miscellaneous tariff bill jam-packed with special provisions to suspend duties on various foreign goods, even though it runs counter to the earmark ban Republicans campaigned on in 2010 and instituted when they took power. http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0412/75506.html#ixzz1ufE7cYsu

Aren't these small govt types the same ones who are ramming through legislation that attempts to control contraception/abortion/gay marriage?

Passing bills that legislate morality and don't stand a chance in the Senate creates jobs, doesn't it?
