Sen. Orrin Hatch, in a recent newsletter: "I have been trying to chart a reasonable path ahead to stop these massive tax increases."
I think that's great, but the sorry fact is that Orrin worked so hard to involve us in trillion-dollar wars and give massive sums of tax dollars to banks that were supposedly too big to fail. His own net worth — once estimated higher than $4 million — and annual income upward of $200,000 seem to speak loudest. His multi-billion dollar spy facility in Bluffdale (the Utah Data Center) will be using your taxes to possibly track your personal communications.
Yes, Orrin likes to bring home the bacon, but it seems terribly rancid for a country trying to get back on its feet — let alone become a shining light on the hill.

What you see is what you get. Too bad more people didn't see him for what he is before the election. Six more years of doing whatever it takes to get him reelected.
He will get elected as long as he is willing to run. We scream for change, but refuse to do anything more than that to get it.
Orrin has been reelected so he safe to regress to his usual tactics for the next 5 yrs.
