Tried to lure her to a beach in New Hampshire, in February? He should be charged with endangerment too.

A New Hampshire state lawmaker who sits on the House Children and Family Law committee was arrested Tuesday and arraigned Wednesday for attempting to lure a 14-year-old girl into a sexual encounter.

This looks like a blurb from extremely inappropriate, highly offensive Onion article. The party of family values in full swing.

Like clockwork. The minute - I mean, the MINUTE - you hear about “family values” “traditional beliefs” “old fashioned American values” just sit back and wait to get news like this.

You won’t be waiting for long.

His defense will be that he was “just conducting research” for his Committee.

No, really, that’s what it will be.

This is your modern Republican party, folks. Maybe he and Josh Duggar can start a support group.

This guy applied his skills to the wrong line of work, that’s his chief mistake. Everything he’s accused of is on the job description for Deputy Sheriff in Kentucky.

“Law enforcement also found drugs in Tasker’s home, including marijuana baked into brownies and mushrooms, according to the AP.”

Sounds like a real fun guy.

WTF? Was the ‘marijuana baked into brownies and mushrooms’ the step ‘too far’? C’mon.

“Awful people need representing too.”

Seriously, when you have one legislator for every 3000 people in the state, then you don’t get much of a filter.

Yeah, say what you will, the man has talent. Baking marijuana into mushrooms is quite difficult.

Probably beats rolling with Charmin. Geez, you give Bob one fricking thing on the camping list to bring and he can’t keep it straight.

Tasker sent some inappropriate messages to the girl during a House committee meeting, according to the AP.

We have two ex-lawmakers in Michigan facing criminal charges for conducting lurid and tawdry behavior at their job while being on the public dime.

While only Rep. Tasker can make the decision to resign from his seat, the House does have the ability to remove him."

If all else fails or the case against him needs an added boost, the NH legislature might want to consider adding to this man’s charges after they put him under oath and get him on the record with an ethics investigation. Oh, and have him pay the taxpayers back for cheating his constituents of not focusing on their issues and instead focusing of his own prurient sick shit.

Let’s see if the NH legislature has the balls to exercise that option.

He will add to that, “Just look at me. I have nubile young women throwing themselves at me 24/7. Why would I want to have a three-way with a 14-year-old?”
