In an appearance before the American Enterprise Institute, GOP Senator Orrin Hatch calls Obamacare a stupid dumbass bill and anyone who likes it is a stupid dumbass. Hard to believe but watch for yourself at the following local news website.
Here’s the direct quote:
"We [...] finally did away with the individual mandate tax that was established under that wonderful bill called 'Obamacare.' Now, if you didn't catch on, I was being very sarcastic. That was the stupidest, dumbass bill that I've ever seen. Now, some of you may have loved it. If you do, you are one of the stupidest, dumbass people I've ever met. ”
According to polling released today by Kaiser Health, that would mean Hatch views 54% of Americans as stupid dumbasses.
I wonder how Hatch, who is president pro tempore of the U.S. Senate and third in line of presidential succession, would describe his 52-48 majority GOP Senate that was not able to repeal this dumbass bill.
This is the leadership of the party that Democrats are supposed to work with in good faith?
