Republican Legislator Dabbles in Science

Yep. A bad combo.

Rep. Bernard Ayotte, a Republican, said he couldn’t support the legislation because it would provide legal protections to people whom he said suffered from hormonal imbalances causing same-sex attractions.

“By all indications, homosexuality in human beings seems to be generated by imbalances in the human body,” he said. “As legislators, it is important that we do not base our statutes on genetic aberrations.”

Ayotte added that his lack of support for the legislation shouldn’t be interpreted as discrimination against gay people.

I loved that last part.
