"On Tuesday, Hatch said he may have misspoken at the event, and he was speaking of conditions in post-Hussein Iraq and the terrorist network led by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. "Saddam clearly had a long history of supporting terrorists, but I was not talking about any formal link between Saddam and al-Qaida before the war," Hatch said in a statement. "Instead, I pointed out that the current insurgency in Iraq includes al-Qaida, under the leadership of al-Zarqawi, along with former elements of Saddam's regime." "

I DIDN'T MEAN IT LITERALLY, K?

No fuck that. You need a clearer juxtaposition:

Quote :

"Orrin Hatch (R): Nobody denies that he [Hussein] was supporting al-Qaida."

"Orrin Hatch (R): I was not talking about any formal link between Saddam and al-Qaida before the war"

I remember several years ago when Orrin Hatch was convinced that West Nile virus was bioterrorism.

I also remember when he tried to start a campaign to allow foreigners to be president.

Personally, I think that the guy is off of his rocker. I mean, come on, he's from Utah.

o ya ur right, he very well could be

Here are some quotes from Orrin.

Quote :

"The Federal government does not have any information about extraterrestrial life to conceal, and there are no secret projects for me to investigate. "

Quote :

"Capital punishment is our society's recognition of the sanctity of human life. "

if you're talking about the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, that was a government inside job.

That is a 100% proven fact.
