High school gives (Orrin) Hatch mixed response

[deadparrot]

Boston-area high school students gave a speech by U.S. Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, a mixed response -- some cheered, some booed and many were indifferent.

Hatch spoke on free-market economics, the Patriot Act and AIDS relief work by Bono at Wellesley High School, in Wellesley, Mass., where his son teaches business, the Boston Globe reported Saturday.

The speech was closed to the public and the media, but Hatch said he also sought to deliver an anti-drug message.

If you use illegal drugs -- even if you smoke cigarettes -- you're a loser, Hatch said he told the students.

1. If you sell your

soul to the Re :puke: party, Mr. Hatch your a loser. Drugs take a distant second.

2. Hatch is a loser for backing W in an unnecessary war

And Mr. Hatch has a polygamous background in Utah that most can't comprehend when they talk about morals. Let him clean up his own dirt first. These self-righteous bigots have pushed the pencil too far. Romney needs to comment also.

3. Hatch is a polygamist?

He's many things, but I hadn't heard that one. :shrug:

[Erika]

4. Hatch is the descendant of polygamists

Does that clarify things?

[stevedeshazer]

5. Yes

thanks

[aquart]

10. Nah. He doesn't marry 'em.

6. I can't imagine how he'd be all that popular in Massachusetts

Then again, the state did vote for Romney, another self righteous, dickhead from Utah.

How, I have no idea.

[Erika]

7. Romney is also a descendant from polygamous marriages

Maybe some reporter will have the guts to ask him about it.

[fooj]

8. Hatch is a treasonous rat bastard!

:grr:

[Erika]

9. You want to get a kick out of Hatch?

Ask him how many wives his great grandfather had at the same time.

As I said, the Mormons voted GOP because the Democrats only allowed those to vote who declared they had one wife. It really pissed off the Mormons.

12. Early Mormons actually hated the Republican Party

In 1856, the original platform of the Republican Party was:

"The abolition of the twin relics of barbarism, Slavery and Polygamy."

11. Are the Mormons invading Massachusetts?
