Ummm... where are the voters? Is the incompetency just now starting to show? I think not. We had our chance, but then somebody stood up in sacrament meeting, and it was all over.

He was one of only two senators to vote against the recent ethics bill. Hatch said he supports ethics reforms but didn't like the process used with the bill the Senate passed. I have no idea what that means. And, now Hatch is against the war but supports Bush's troop surge. In other words, mistakes have been made, perhaps we shouldn't have attacked Iraq, but stay the course anyway even though that course clearly isn't working. We need a senator capable of reasonable thought, not one who merely follows the polls. We need a senator willing to take a stand. Instead, we're stuck with Hatch for another six years. Par for the course in Utah. After all, state senator Chris Buttars is returned to office over and over again too. Until many Utahns stop viewing the Republican party as the party of God, we will have idiotic representation. At some point, you have to ask yourself this question: are most Utahns idiots?

It lasted about 15 minutes and we talked about a lot of things. He seemed very willing to listen to other ideas and was genuinely respectful of my views but unquestionably dogmatic. He seems to think Politics works on the same principles as Physics. There are certain True Principles that simply work every time. Like Tax Cuts. They don't cause deficits - they grow the economy and create more tax revenues than we gave up. Really? Where did those Trillions of dollars in debt come from? I fear that Senator Hatch's mild aknowledgement that things have not gone perfectly in Iraq is more polite listening. The real problem is that those who have pushed this war think that Iraq is really France in 1945. Its not. You can't go in and reform a country you refuse to understand. And by the way, who said remaking the Muslim World in our own image was our right to do anyway? I can only claim one face to face conversation with Senator Hatch.

(sorry,I keep forgetting Robert Mugabe). Maybe Utah has the voice it deserves. Maureen Dowd had one of the best descriptions of Iraq.."Bush hit a beehive with a baseball bat and doesn`t understand the result". I`m afraid the new "surge" is going to result in nocturnal Little Big Horns in Baghdad,with our troops taking really serious casualties. Remember Mogadishu ? There is such awful circularity in this...Vietnam 2 Bush`s compentency level makes him ideal for mayor of a small Texas town..population 500 max. Why he could even have Orrin as local D.A.

I'm fed up with the lies, distortions, stupidity, civil rights violations, hypocrisy and secrecy. We are no longer a Democracy. I have to go to the March on the Pentagon next month. My brother and I will be there and being loud. Bush and his crowd thumb their nose at the constitution and I'm going to finger right back to them.
