Orrin Hatch -- Do the Mormons really support this asshole?

[LiberalFighter]

He is such an ass licker for Gonzales

1. Oddly enough, he supports stem cell research

Weird.

2. What a tool

[acmavm]

3. That's because he knows that he's got some kind of mental

defect and he hopes they'll find a cure.

Stem cells won't cure his ethical defects though.

4. You Know the Saying: He May Be an Asshole, But He's Their Asshole!

That's the problem with not having any ethics--you never know when you've gone too far.

5. Link??

6. Hatch has always been the right's water boy.

Don't you remember his faux outrage during the Anita Hill hearings? He's always among the first to rush forward towing the party line whatever it may be.

Mormons are sheep. The church runs everything and yes does strongly urge it's members as to whom they should vote for.

To be fair there are a few independent thinking Mormons but they are the extreme exception to a very strong rule, especially within the boundaries of Utah.

I still thank my lucky stars to have escaped the state 8 years ago. Most of my extended family still lives there so I return often, only to be thrilled to leave again.

7. Are you kidding, he gets reelected with a vote percentage...

that almost exactly matches Utah's Mormon population distribution. I know there is crossover, but it's still uncanny.
