Attorney general nominee Loretta Lynch won the backing of a senior Republican senator during the second day of her Senate hearings Thursday, a big step on her path to be confirmed as the first black woman to lead the Justice Department.

"I'm going to be a strong supporter of her nomination," Hatch told the witnesses. "And I believe she's not only qualified, but exceptionally well qualified, and a very good person, to boot."
Two other committee Republicans, Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Jeff Flake of Arizona, have indicated they'll support her nomination, which would give her the three GOP votes she needs to be approved by the committee and be sent to the full Senate for a final vote. The panel's Democrats back President Barack Obama's nominee.

I guess that, whenever a vote from Hatch is important for America, the Democrats remind him of “those photos”....
IMHO, Hatch needs to be replaced by a patriot with nothing to hide.
I will not vote for either of my two Georgia Senators if they vote to confirm her. I’m not going to vote for Isakson anyway, but Perdue had better live up to his promises or he gets on the no-vote list, too.
She only had to PROMISE to keep the worthless GOP
EXEMPT from the “Laws” they deem for others below them.
That brings to mind the novel Advise and Consent.

Souls somebody please remind me why we were so excited back in November. I think it was something about an election.
Yes, but the analogy's wrong. Conservatives are not masochists.
Conservatives are battered women.
Actually, they’re probably scared spitless of what would be said of them if they opposed a woman of enhanced melanin in any way.
Our elections are as worthless as those in “color revolution” states such as junta Ukraine and captive Serbia! Surprise, surprise!!!!
I voted against the warmongers, “gays”, and abortionists, and got New World Order, pro-”gay”, pro-abortion government, at both the State and Federal level. Did anyone here do any better?
Free Serbia! Free America!
Thanks to these worthless RINO’s I have bailed out of the Republican Party and have joined the Independants out there.
We Really,Desperately need a Conservative party to replace these weak kneed republicrats.
Sometimes I feel, sometimes I feel
Like I been tied to the whippin’ post

The GOOBs drop their drawers and bend over for the Kommie ‘RAT Kiddies again. I guess the GOOBs are still looking for that “battle” to “pick and chose” to “fight”. It’s tough.

Body copy
Dear Senator
We are tired of bills are not being read and billion$ and trillion$ of dollars in legislation called omnibus bills get passed. Fundings then get shoveled into agencies with the results being government intrusion as well as its employees that grow into our lives regulating US how we; eat, sleep, pray, get married , and think.. This questionaire contains opinions with positions voters feel you should have or be taking concerning the course this country should be heading. It has been freely distributed and not directed to a selected demographic to produce a given result..
Should Senator vote no on any such 1000 page or more Omnibus funding bills of extended duration beyond 60 days if congress doesn’t do it’s job and consider (read) what it’s passing? (Yes) or (NO) ? If he votes no the socialists will scream “government shutdown”. Will you still support him? (Y) (N) (Maybe). Should Obama care be (fixed) or (dumped) And if he votes to fix and not dump it will you support him for another term (YES) or (NO)?
EPA...This agency is out of control INS....Immigration out of control IRS...Out of Control
The people who head these agencies get approved by the senate and swear an oath to support the constitution not the executive branch or the president.
Should he support Senate hearings ? Investigating their funding and operation (Y)(N)
If such officers are found guilty of abusing or exceeding their legislative authorization .
Should he support their encircle which ( censure) (impeachment) (defunding)...If he refuses to do so will you still support him in 2016 (Yes) or (No)
EPA Own waterfront property? You can’t clear your waterfront jungle. Pay more for the b/s in your gas & idiot lites in your car. Watch what you flush because higher electric bills will save the world and the bankrupt campaign contributers in the solar industry.
It is time to reign in EPA Funding? (Y)(N)
INS...Amnesty.. Forget about Ebola
We don’t allow cattle to enter without a background health and ancestry check which we also reqiure of legal immigrants who wait years and still go thru health and record checks. We also require that any legal immingrant demonstrate prior to entry that they offer a contribution to our society and not dependency upon it .
Yet we’re letting children and gang bangers in without doing any of this which has resulted in dispersing virulent new diseases and drug use which has resulted in unreported cases in schools where these illegal kids were placed.. Plus shoved a severe financial strain on local governments where they are placed .
I (oppose) (support) the nomimination of Loretta Lynch to be the Chief Law Officer of the land.
Should those given this bypassed favored treatment who miss their INS hearing be deported fortwith ? (Y) (N).. ? Denied re-entry (Y)(N) ?
In “countries where an American citizen decides to be a “legal” emigree never mind being a seasonal visitor still are denied voting privledges. Own land pay in their own name.Face steep fines before getting kicked out let alone receive income and energy subsistance including food stamps, or bring in family members .
I (do) (don’t) believe we should allow such full citizenship privledges mentioned above which are denied by their country of national origin to a legal American immigrant . Should we deny such full citizen privledges to any individual mark which best applies to a (emigree) (seasonal vistor) (illegal) if their country does not allow those same privledges to any citizen of the United States, .
While such a position will be condemed as defacto deportation particularly by the political establishment would you refuse to support if he refuses to support such restrictions ? (Y) (N) Does that also include erecting border barriers such as fencing designed to discourage surrepticious or uncontolled entry ? (Yes) (No)
Should any American citizen which goes overseas to join a foreign entity fighting against the United States (such as ISIS) Be denied re-entry (Y)(N) and their citizenship revoked? (Y) (N) Should that person be charged with treason (Y)(N)
Very Truly Yours For Conservative Government
place return address label below along with signature and date
Jeff Sessions reportedly told her to her face that he would be voting against her and why he would do so.
That had to deeply pain Hatch, Flake, Grahamnesty, Alexander, et al.
I have sent my Senator (Risch) a email.
Two wrongs don’t make it right...........
I sent a letter to my Senator, Marco Rubio, regarding Loretta Lynch:
This activist is quite unsuited and of entirely the wrong mind-set for the position of Attorney General of the United States. She exhibits a contempt for enforcement of existing laws, and it is way more than just “Prosecutorial discretion”.
As an elected or appointed official, the prosecutor is the most powerful official in the criminal justice system. Prosecutors exercise unfettered discretion, deciding who to charge with a crime, what charges to file, when to drop the charges, whether or not to plea bargain, and how to allocate prosecutorial resources. In jurisdictions where the death penalty is in force, the prosecutor literally decides who should live and who should die by virtue of the charging decision.
And as such, the position DEMANDS that a person of reasoned and controlled temperament be in charge. We cannot have a loose-ranging fury unleashed upon what are already threatened freedoms and liberties we have enjoyed for generations, and undoing all the precedents established for fair and even-handed administration of justice. Loretta Lynch has already demonstrated, by word and action, that she shall not proceed along that path, but to a different agenda that does not bode well for the future of the ideals of that great nation, the United States of America.
Please do not vote to confirm her, and to the best of your means, try to persuade your fellow Senators not to support this nomination, for the reasons I have indicated above.
I guess Sen Hatch is okay with Loretta’s very close ties to Holder’s wife, Sharon.
Birds of feather and all....

Orrin Hatch claims to be opposed to abortion. The only reason to be opposed to abortion is that it's (mass) murder. So, according to Orrin Hatch, a person who is an enthusiast for mass murder is "a very good person."
