Obey Earmark, Son is Lobbyist

Wisconsin Democrat Congressman David Obey has been in Congress too long. Washington Times:

A top House Republican is demanding an investigation into whether the more than $2 billion for national parks in the House stimulus package is proper in light of the fact that the chief lobbyist for the National Parks Conservation Association is the son of House Appropriations Committee Chairman David R. Obey.

Supposedly the son doesn't directly lobby the father to avoid an "appearance" of conflict of interest. Oh, that's all right then.
