Tell me this, Hatch made an agreement with the Dems to rubber stamp Clinton's nominees- why didn't he make them agree to do the same. How come Republicans are so stupid?
Hatch, has actually talked about this, regarding the nuclear option.
In his view, and the way Reid mentions it, Hatch gave "advice and consent" (I'd call it a rubber stamp).
In his narrow and naive view, he thought the democrats would do the exact same thing as the republicans.
Its why I don't think Harch is lying, no senator would want to intentionally look that stupid on purpose....and he knows he looks dumb for it.
