"Sen. Orrin G. Hatch (R-Utah) put it more colorfully. "It's a little bit like biblical Pharisees, you know, who basically are always trying to undermine Jesus Christ," he said on Fox News. "You know, it goes on the same way. If they can catch him in something, they can then criticize and the outside groups will go berserk." "

1. President Satan already said not only that he was appointed by God

but also that he SPEAKS for God (and that he asked his "higher father" rather than Poppy Laius), apotheosis is the only remaining step

[burrowowl]

2. I think that

Orrin named the wrong party as Pharisees. Just a thought, mind you.

[Lannes]

5. Seriously

If the pharisees have a handbook these guys are playing from it.

[Blue-Jay]

3. Pot, meet Kettle.

Perhaps Sen. Hatch should pay more attention when reading his Bible.

[xray s]

4. wrong Orrin

The Pharisees were pissed at Jesus because he called them out for their religious hypocrisy and lack of compassion for the poor, the weak and the fallen. Like you and your rotten, war mongering mammon loving, piss on the poor party!

6. this coming from mr. piety himself? please. supposedly a devout mormon

kowtows to probably the most evil man to inhabit the White House. Clinton got a blow job. * murdered thousands and thousands and thousands and thousands...

[FreedomAngel82]

7. I think he needs to look in the mirror

Seriously.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

8. That's the funniest goddamn thing I ever heard.

That Ichabod Crane motherfucker should drop dead and explode
for not having one cell of irony in his whole king smug starch collar
bloodless orange-headed body. The cosmic hypocrisy of that scrawny old
bloviator just might be the final straw that would bring Jesus back
and he better run for the fucking hills on that particular day.

16. Don't hold back...tell us how you really feel

Seriously, I am just sickened by the total lack of humility these assholes show. I hope God is really pissed off about the round about comparasin to her son, and she reaches out to smite him. :wtf:

*assuming there is a God

[A-Schwarzenegger]

18. He's a freak, nosferatu in a starch collar

He's in for a big surprise...

[Solly Mack]

9. LOL! Do people like him seriously believe the nutcase shit that comes out

their mouths?

I can't decide who's more in need of a padded room - the ones who spout looney tune crap like this or those who take them serious and vote for them.

[Warren DeMontague]

10. Yeah. I mean, it's not like he got a blow job or anything, right Orrin?

You Fuckstick.

11. From the time that Hatch arrived in the Senate with his tendency to

yap on and on about nothing the other Senators have referred to his speaking/moralizing say nothing of importance self-righteous manner as "Orrinating".

Privately, when Senators or staff members are talking and someone has gone on a bit long and saying nothing of importance they always say "Stop Orrinating". I use it often in my daily life.

[longship]

12. I compare Orrin Hatch to an asshole.

n/t

[Kurovski]

13. He's too late. we've already given the "Pharisee" title to Bushco.

So has anyone with a rudimentary understanding of the Bible.

Or even "Jesus Christ Superstar", for that matter.

[Lannes]

15. Love JCS

I said it once and Ill say it again.Carl Anderson was the man!

[punpirate]

14. Y'know, I ain't one of those Bible-thumpin' Reppubicans...

... but I know a goddamned Pharisee when I see one, and bein' a Pharisee is part of the Repubbican platform. If a Pharisee is a money-grubbin' nasty bastard who'd spit on poor as soon as look at `em, who'd put his own mother in jail for not payin' her rent, would steal from his family to get enough money to make a contribution to Bush, then I know who they are.

Orrin and his friends would knock down a beggar and rob him of his tin cup if they thought no one was lookin'. And then kick him for good measure.

Talk about projection. This one ought to go in the introductory psychology textbooks. Bastards.

[DanCa]

17. Republicans are scribes

Its a little bit like biblical scibes, you know who basicaly transcribe word for what the law says without exception. Jesus himself said never be a scribe or a pharisee. He also siad never use his name use his name in vain and woe be he to seperate the cup. And what was that about clean your own cup?"

Of course what the heck do I know? I dont want to see mothers crippled in child birth, people armed to the teeth in the streets, and watch our young man and women die over seas. Hey Hatch last question for you. You voted for the war. Who would jesus Bomb?

[wli]

19. we don't need to compare Republicans to fascists

They are fascists. Harboring and hiring Klaus Barbie and all. Ledeen going on record as one with "Universal Fascism."

[VOX]

20. You mean Roberts, Jr., is JESUS? Get outta here!!!

Everybody knows that the Chimp is Jesus! :sarcasm:

Orrin is such a pitiful lightweight. As usual, he's got it all wrong. Right-wing mother******s are the Pharisees, dude. :grr:

[ngGale]

21. LOL - I call the Repubs the Pharisees ...

after all they meet the definition.

[Raksha]

22. I wish they'd both get raptured (Bush and Orrin Hatch)

and take a bunch of their friends with them!

[ladjf]

23. Listen to no words for the mouth of slime ball Hatch. He is among

the worst of the worst.

[flordehinojos]

24. HATCH, BUSH AND THE REST OF THE REPUBLICANS PROJECT A WHOLE LOT!

I.E., THEY PROJECT UNTO OTHERS <USUALLY AS A DEFENSE MECHANISM> THOSE VERY SAME QUALITIES OF WHICH THEY THEMSELVES ARE GUILTY OF POSSESSING IN THEMSELVES, THUS HE {HATCH} JUSTIFIES HIS OWN PHARISEE QUALITY AND BACKSTABBING OF THIS COUNTRY (by projecting them unto other people)...THE SAME WAY THAT BUSH DOES
.

[deminks]

25. A page from Rove's playbook.

Blame others before they can blame you. Rove's golden rule. :eyes:
