Sen. Orrin Hatch: ObamaCare Is A “Stupid, Dumbass Program”
Republican Senator Orrin Hatch from Utah gave a speech at Utah State University where he seemed to be testing out some new stand-up comedy material in front of a receptive audience as he trashed President Obama’s healthcare reform program. Although Hatch slightly hesitated before unleashing the harshest description of the bill, after he did, he jokingly apologized for his word choice, but seemed completely sincere with his sentiment.
Hatch’s description of “Obamacare”:
“Every state has different demographics, every state has different problems. It’s good to allow them to work out their own problems rather than a one-size-fits-all federal government stupid, dumbass program.”
Hatch apologized if people thought that was a swear, and backpedaled only
slightly, instead suggesting “Obamacare” is an “awful piece of crap.” The idea that more power should be shifted to the states and away from the federal government is certainly a strong belief of the Tea Party, and most Republicans fearful of Tea Party primary challenges (like Hatch) can probably be expected to be sounding very similar in the near future.
