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.
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.
BOOOOYAH!
I’ll show that bastard Hatch the same respect he’s shown the American people.
Hey Hatch, why don’t you retire and go write your songs?
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.
In Hatch-speak, civility is code for rolling over and voting the prescribed way.
The sooner the old guard dies off in both parties, the better off the country will be. Thi Senate is a Dinosaur Refuge that lost its purpose when the direct election of senators changed its constitutional function. It should go back to being appointed by the states to bolster states’ rights against the inevitable power grab by the federal government, or it should be abolished.
