*DURING* a floor debate, #Texas #GOP Congressman asks Congresswoman @MarisaMarquez if her breasts are real. http://t.co/UTm7ZtnM6l

In a memorably noxious moment last session, Hamilton went to the back microphone on the House floor to ask state Rep. Marisa Marquez, a large-chested Democrat from El Paso, a question during a debate over whether to provide funds for a tramway at Franklin Mountains State Park. Smirking, Hamilton asked Marquez, “Will the young lady yield?”

After she said yes, Hamilton said: “Young lady, would you please tell us why your mountains are better than any of our mountains and are they man-made or are they real mountains?”
