Sen. Hatch re: Attorney-gate: "It's a waste of time. They have no evidence, just innuendo."

http://www.washingtontimes.com/national/20070329-114720-2749r.htm

<snip>

"It's a waste of time. They have no evidence, just innuendo. They're just looking for anything they can use to hurt the White House," said Sen. Orrin G. Hatch, Utah Republican.
Mr. Sampson, however, did say that Mr. Gonzales has made inaccurate public statements in explaining the firings, prompting Sen. Arlen Specter, Pennsylvania Republican, to say that Mr. Gonzales has "many questions to answer."

6. Being the good "christian conservative"
orin has to have his nose in everybody's crotch. Obstruction of justice, treason, damage to national security, lies, selling to the highest bidder, no big deal, as long as it doesn't involve a sex organ.

2. Hey, Orrin! Where's that bi-partisan spirit?
Help us out to find out the truth instead of performing for the circus crowd and then we can talk.

3. Orin, you ignorant slut
One does not have to look very far to find "anything they can use to hurt the White House."

Pathetic conservative garbage being all honorable and supporting a drug addicted, lying, military deserting, corporate criminal sack of shit. Yo Go Orin. You should be so proud. Does rove have pictures of you with a dead boy?

5. That's the sound bite he's giving to Faux News. They'll ignore
everything else, and the lemmings will be the "victims" again.

8. Hmm. Maybe Orin Hatchet is the "anonomous senator" who shut things down yesterday, managing to
leave the Republicans with even more egg on their faces than was already there. Maybe he should just quit his day job and cut another gospel cd with John Ashcroft.

11. Then why did Goodling take the 5th? Why did Sampson answer "don't remember" to yes or no questions?

12. Lying snake. He knows about * dismantling DOJ. Link to Salon's top story.
http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2007/03/30/civil_rights/ There's no reason to believe Hatch. He's a blatant ass kisser from way back.
