In this edition of Counterpoint PA’s homage to Keith Olbermann, the Worst Pennsylvanians of the Week, the winner is a conservative Republican state representative who is seeking cosponsors to introduce a bill that would literally legalize discrimination.

I put the reality of this proposal in historical perspective and emphasize that it is, in fact, an endorsement of discrimination.
