Democrats are calling on New Hampshire State Rep. Alfred Baldasaro (R) to resign over his remarks that the state "sold" children for $10,000 each when "they said that homosexual couples, not married, can adopt."
Baldasaro is one of the main sponsors of HB 1590, which aims to repeal a New Hampshire law allowing same-sex couples to marry.
In his testimony before the state's House Judiciary Committee on January 20, Baldasaro offered his objections to gay marriage, first insisting that it's "not normal."
He elaborated with some choice metaphors:
So because I disagree on something that's pushed down my throat, I'm supposed to roll over because, representative, you think it's normal? I'm sorry you got the wrong person.
Then things got really bad: "I wanted to make sure everyone understood here, that this legislature sold the rights of $10,000 per kid under title four, when they said that homosexual couples, not married, can adopt."
"So we sold each kid to a homosexual couple that's not married for $10,000," Baldasaro said.
Baldasaro also brought up incestuous couples, asking "aren't we discriminating against all them?"
"What about the Muslims now?," he asked."Everyone's praising the Muslims. They're killing us. What about them, they want three, four wives. We're discriminating against them."

His career is so done. Either he resigns or he loses next time around.

So Dogbert--I am a conservative independant-- in fact very conservative. So I take it you have got a problem with gay couples adopting children-because I sure don't.
As a conservative--the ONLY thing I want for the children raised in this country is that they are raised by great--loving--attentive parents & I could give a rats ass if they're a straight or gay couple--
