Sometimes what we really need is a great laugh. Fortunately for us, Twitter is all too happy to oblige.
Monday night the House Republicans voted 119-74 to gut Congress’ independent ethics oversight watchdog panel. They also voted to take away the panel’s independence.
And then on Tuesday morning, after a barrage of public outrage, the Republicans reversed this decision. And they voted unanimously to restore the original rules of the OCE.
So Tuesday afternoon HuffPost decided to harness all of that public outrage into a hysterical game of #GOPSongsAboutEthics.
