Wile E. Coyote Syndrome, Part 42

Just a short time back--only a week ago--RedState contributor blackhedd posted some prime we're-better-than-they-are snark:

"I hear that Democrats are striking their foreheads for not having thought of this sooner.

They're thinking of making it a misdemeanor to be a US Senator or Member of Congress.

Then all of the Republicans will be forced to resign. The Democrats, en masse, will announce that they deeply apologize, but that the offense has no bearing on their ability to continue doing the job the American people expect them to do.

Great plan, no?"


Now, in the best tradition of hapless lupine cartoon characters, Mr. blackhedd is hoist by his own petard. How does the plan work if the guilty Republicans keep resigning and unresigning?
