From Wikipedia: On September 23 2008, LaBruzzo raised controversy by proposing that women receiving government welfare should be sterilized. The proposal was criticized by opponents as “racist, sexist, unethical and immoral.”

The sterilization proposal has a great deal in common with a previous proposal by Neo-Nazi David Duke, who formerly occupied LaBruzzo’s seat in the Louisiana House of Representatives. To wit, “David Duke, the unsuccessful candidate for governor, proposed legislation offering $100 a year to welfare recipients who used Norplant. That, too, was defeated.” (source:) LaBruzzo’s proposal goes even farther than Duke’s, as he has proposed permanent sterilization, as opposed to temporary birth control. Norplant, which Duke proposed using, has a 5-year period of effectiveness.

This dolt Labruzzo is actually my Representative – District 81 in Louisiana, which includes Metairie. Makes me wince, frequently. I’m being polite.
