Orrin Hatch came off as exactly what he was, a health insurance employee, a paid professional liar for the corporate interest. One of many!

You're part of that 9% congress approval rate, Hatch!

If we only could have gotten that Public Option. It would have given the insurance industry some competition. Did you ever see such a temper tantrum when the insurance industry was faced with the threat of the Public Option and a few reasonable rules like the pre-existing conditions provision? OMG! They invested millions of dollars to create a fake astro turf outrage industry that eventually morphed into the Tea Party.

That whole health care mess was like nothing I have ever seen in government.

"Hatch" a few more laughable numbers out of your a**, Orin!

(Isn't it sad that they kept using the same tired, disingenuous talking points to oppose a plan for universal health care that the majority of US citizens supported?!? I grow tired of witnessing the steady disintegration of our system of government...)
