Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., and Majority Whip John Cornyn, R-Texas, joined in on the push-back against CruzAlexander recently praised Ted Kennedy, so that shows what a dim bulb he is. While there are definitely problems in the House, this country's heaviest anchor is the Senate. Much like the Senate killed Rome, our Senate is undoing this country (with some pushing from Obama, of course).

Deliberation without more than two hours to read a 200 page bill is also not deliberation at all.
There is no decorum in lying.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., kept a promise made to Democrats earlier this year that in exchange for their support on an important trade deal, he would allow a vote on a measure to extend the bank. More proof in the pudding that McConnell is a liar.
And Hatch can take his Senate comity and shove it up his royal patoot!
Where was he when Durbin was calling our troops 'Nazis,' or McCain was calling TEA Partiers 'wackos' and 'crazies.'

The gop-e asshats are disturbingly tiresome. I can only hope that Justice finds them.

Hatch lied to his constituents about immigration in his last election. He was elected by means of fraud.
To: exit82
He can’t do that; Arlen Sphincter is gone.

How the hell old is Orrin Hatch anyway? About a hundred?
Why is he afraid to go out and live in the world he helped create? Retire already!

I’m afraid the kind of money that owns the Old Guard isn’t yours and mine. It’s more likely Wall Street conglomerates and the Chamber of Commerce (K Street), judging by whose interests the Old Guard supports since regaining their majority.
It isn’t like they ever bother to credit voters for their majority, it’s their opinion we are rubes and the COC and WS pay much better.

If that is the case, how do renegades like Bratt beat establishment heros such as Cantor? All is not lost yet, keep fighting.

To think Mark Levin helped get Hatch re-elected. That... Was really a mistake. Senator Hatch, shut up and go away. Senator Lee is going to whip the GOPe’s ass. Can’t wIt to see it.

All of the Hatch clan out of the Snowflake, AZ area, including Senator Orin Hatch, are a bunch of preening, self-satisfied, assholes.

So what is the solution.
The ballot box method isn’t working.

We tried, but the old GOP guard shoveled money to defeat them. It doesn’t seem like it would do any good anyway - not with the “fill the Tree,” acts they pull.

“Hatch issued a general reminder to all lawmakers that it is against the rules to accuse another senator of “unworthy” conduct, before speaking at length about what he described as a breakdown of Senate floor decorum in recent months, led by Senate newcomers running for president or otherwise looking to advance themselves politically.”
Listen to the inbred arrogance from a damned dinosaur that has spent far too much time at the public trough.
People are fed up with business as usual.
