Ohio legislator calls for barring Republicans from adopting

From a memo recently circulated by Robert Hagan, of the Ohio State Senate
"I intend to introduce legislation in the near future that would ban households with one or more Republican voters from adopting children or acting as foster parents... My legislation is modeled after a bill recently introduced in the Ohio House by Rep. Ron Hood (R-Ashville via Carrollton), which
would prohibit homosexual, bisexual and transgender people from adopting children...

Credible research exists that strongly suggests that adopted children raised in Republican households, though significantly wealthier than their Democrat-raised counterparts, are more at risk for developing emotional problems, social stigmas, inflated egos, an alarming lack of tolerance for others they deem different than themselves, and an air of overconfidence to mask their insecurities.

If you are interested in co-sponsoring this legislation, please feel free to contact my office."
How beautiful is this?
