PL/pgSQL caches its query plans, so subsequent calls to the function
use the plan created on the first call.  You can avoid this plan
caching by using EXECUTE.

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/static/plpgsql-statements.html#PLPGSQL-STATEMENTS-EXECUTING-DYN

Note what the documentation says about not being able to get the
result of an EXECUTE query directly.  A couple of workarounds are
mentioned.
