While I'm not clear on exactly what you're doing (thus my answer might 
be less than helpful), I think you can get at your variable by doing 
something like (for instance):

<span tal:define="myob python: request.SESSION['myob']">
...
</span>

.. please proceed with telling me how that doesn't help. ;-)
