Hatch Closed to Plight of Poor

Orin Hatch continues the long tradition of the Republican Party in championing the wealthy and the corporations. I can only guess Senator Hatch has no poor constituency, because on the Sunday after the burial of his good friend, Senator Ted Kennedy, instead of thinking of those without health care, he reiterated the need for the health insurance industry as it is, because it is 1/6Th of the United States economy, something, I'm sure he has helped to bring about in his time in the Senate. So, again, a Republican thinks "money" instead of thinking of those who suffer without adequate health care.
It is amazing to me that anyone who works for a living could stand with a politician such as Orin Hatch and the Republican Party.
It would help if we all remembered what Teddy Kennedy said back in 1968 in Alaska, because it is SO fitting today as it was then, "We have let the haters take the lead, and we are all paying for it."

Oh, puh-lease! First, it's "Orrin" Hatch. If you're going to trash the man, at least show enough intelligence to spell his name correctly.

Of course, it is an indication of the poverty of your ideas that you on the far Left dismiss anyone with whom you disagree as a "hater."

Your tone comes across in a "mean, nasty, Republican" way. Of course, this only serves to stir the pot and keeps folks divided so that the profiteers can continue to exploit everyone and everything for profit....
