Loopholes

On the eve of a special legislative session to enact tougher ethics rules for state legislators and lobbyists, The Tennessean today has a story examining how the main proposed ethics legislation would outlaw "actions taken in the past year by at least 27 members of the 132-member General Assembly." It's an entertaining read though - demonstrating the separation between newsroom and opinion editors - the same paper has an editorial today saying that while two indicted legislators ought to resign, until they do they shouldn't be asked to refrain from participating in the special session on ethics reform.
