Hatch: Terrorists are waiting for Dems to take control!
Hatch says Demo win could help terrorists
By Matt Canham
The Salt Lake Tribune




Sen. Orrin Hatch, who continuously decries the bitter partisanship in Washington, implied this week that Democratic success in November's election could result in terrorist attacks on America.
Hatch was quoted in Tuesday's Tooele Transcript Bulletin as saying Middle East terrorists are "waiting for the Democrats here to take control, let things cool off and then strike again."
Democrats are criticizing Hatch for what they see as "ridiculous" partisan hyperbole.
"There they go again trying to use smear and fear to win in November," said Stacie Paxton, spokeswoman for the Democratic National Committee.
While Hatch now says he does not recall making the reported statement to the Tooele newspaper, it would not be the first time he tied terrorist action to Democrats seeking office.

1. In other words bushco will again ignore intelligence reports and let
another terrorist attack to happen, then invade Canada because Canada has muslims in it.

4. Sounds like ol' Orrin

...is in touch with the terrorists, after all he appears to know what they are thinking. Seems to me he should be picked up for questioning.

Cheers
