 Make no mistake, Pete Sessions is serious in his war against clothing. Since his youth, he's looked for opportunities to strike out against the tyranny of fashion.
Sessions, a conservative Republican who wrote a column condemning Janet Jackson's nude display during this year's Super Bowl halftime performance, apparently bared his bottom with about 300 male and female students on the streets of San Marcos during the two-night rampage.*
And now, he's carried his campaign for exposed flesh to a fundraiser for his leadership PAC at a Las Vegas Strip club, Forty Deuce (link not necessarily work safe)
Sessions spent more than $5,000 at Kane's club that night in March, according to federal disclosures. Those reports show Sessions spent another $2,100 on his hotel.
Officially, Pete Sessions' leadership PAC picked up the tab, but just days before the party at Forty Deuce, casino interests donated $5,000 to his PAC. Payday lenders threw in another $2,500.
While it's true not everyone in Big D supports Pete Sessions in his Holy War against Extraneous Fabric, I'm sure the many megachurches of TX-32 will open up their microphones and multi-million dollar viewing centers to allow Rep. Sessions to explain the logic of his position.
And I'm sure an aide will be at his side to remind him to put the tip in the offering box, rather than look for the Pastor's moneymaker to make a discreet deposit in.
*While at first his excoriation of Ms. Jackson's wardrobe malfunction might look like a lapse in the Sessions crusade, properly speaking, the nipple was encased cruelly in a star shaped tip rather than exposed to the breeze as Streaky Pete clearly prefers.
