[FULL TITLE] ‘How about respect for voters?’ Orrin Hatch gets pushback after telling senators to use ‘courtesy and respect’
Todd Zwillich ✔ @toddzwillichSenate
Pro team Orrin Hatch lecturing now on"courtesy and respect" after Ted Cruz called Mitch McConnell a liar Friday.
This call from Sen. Hatch for “courtesy and respect” comes after Sen. Ted Cruz called out majority leader Mitch McConnell Friday for telling him a “flat-out lie.”
Cruz took to the floor to comment on Sen. Hatch’s call for civility.
Boom.
At least he didn’t beat him to death with a cane.
Orin Hatch started out conservative.
Somehow he became best friends with Drunk Teddy and has never been the same.
He needed to have been put out to pasture in the last election.
Hatch is gearing up to slay Mike Lee.
Hatch, McCain and Coryn are working with Reid to keep them all employed and doing nothing.
Cruz broke that rule.
He called a liar a liar. All the powerful people are aghast at the truth-teller. His kind just isn't wanted in polite circles.
Advice from my attorney: It’s never a good idea to call someone a liar.
Just ask yourself, when was the last time that Hatch referred to Democrat voters as part of the far left.
Get a competent attorney.
Ahh, for the good old days.
BOOOOYAH!
he ‘grew’ in office.
I’ll show that bastard Hatch the same respect he’s shown the American people.
Listen to the song Hatch wrote for Kennedy:
7 years ago
Hatch’s song for Kennedy

Hey Hatch, why don’t you retire and go write your songs?
Hatch, cornhole, mcconnell and the rest of the cabal are evil old men. They all need to go. The sooner the better and by any means possible.
Another of the superannuated lifetime "betters" from the House of Lords wing of the Corrupt Bastards Club lashes out at the hoi polloi. Not all that long ago, Orrin Hatch contemplated introducing a bill to ban flag burning in order to toss a basically worthless bone to the "far right," so I guess in a way he HAS "grown" in office…
He's grown brazen enough to not bother hiding his contempt for the rest of us, at any rate.
Mr. niteowl77
I din’t catch Hatch’s comments (I don’t watch the boob tube); did the jerk deny what McConnell told the Republican Senate caucus, as Cruz related on the floor? If Hatch did not deny the accuracy of Cruz’s account, then impliedly Hatch is not denying that McConnell lied, just that Cruz shouldn’t have pointed the lie out on the floor of the Senate.
Ya think there might be something a bit blackmail-able about ol’ Orin?
Well said!
