Insert DeLayed ethics joke here

While Republican Rep. Mary Denny is at it, why not propose a bill that establishes a national Tom DeLay day, and forces all Americans to march in parades for Tom and celebrate his life through interpretive dance?

Okay, it's not that extreme yet, and to be fair Denny admits her bill does not do what she wanted it to do. But why do Republicans keep thinking they can propose changes that make it easier for ethics violations and no one will notice?
