The voting is finally complete and the 2012 Hypocrisy Award goes to... Who else? Barack Obama. The gun-banning ditz Nancy Pelosi was a close, as expected. The man who is guarded by more men with guns than a tin-pot third-world dictator has the unmitigated gall to tell Americans that guns make them less safe. How do you spell "hypocrite"?
