Comments on: Senator Hatch is lost in a haze of delusional dementia, considered unarmed yet dangerous. http://jmbell.org/blog/2007/05/23/senator-hatch-is-lost-in-a-haze-of-delusional-dementia-considered-unarmed-yet-dangerous/ The internet is my playground - politics, media and entertainment Thu, 08 Jan 2009 21:06:41 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 By: JM Bell http://jmbell.org/blog/2007/05/23/senator-hatch-is-lost-in-a-haze-of-delusional-dementia-considered-unarmed-yet-dangerous/comment-page-1/#comment-393 JM Bell Wed, 23 May 2007 19:35:00 +0000 http://jmbell.org/blog/?p=398#comment-393 I have very little doubt that he was only in very, however temporary, secure places. In fact, I have none at all. Knowing that there was a delegation coming, I figure that security planners threw them in a helicopter and spirited them the hell away from the Green Zone. I don't call political posturing brave, and I never will. The men and women that Hatch visited, that had to stay when he flew home; those folks are brave. Hatch took a calculated gamble for a political end, and has since been given "false credibility" by the press. He's using that to parrot a false message about how spiffy things are going, even in the face of casualty rates raising almost 50%. That's criminal to me.

The day after he visited some Utahns serving in Ramadi they had another chlorine truck bomb.
