Well, there is a small part of me that would find this funny (if the re-naming went through). It would be like rubbing his nose in his own idiocy by naming something he would have voted against (and spent his whole life rallying against) after him.
But I still say no.
BTW: so far, I can only find
one link to this story (besides the one above) and it is basically a link to the Joe.My.God story. I would really like to see more on this.
