Hey, remember when Orrin Hatch stood up for
the anti-war protesters who were accused of being un-American traitors who should be sent to Gitmo?

Hey, remember when Orrin Hatch stood up for

In this weekend's Republican address, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) said that Republican do support meaningful reforms in health insurance -- and attacked Democrats over their health care plans and for belittling protestors at town halls. . .

"I am disappointed about the attempts to characterize the behavior of Americans expressing their concerns as 'un-American,'" said Hatch. "Although I strongly encourage the use of respectful debate in these town halls, we should not be stifling these discussions. There is nothing 'un-American' about disagreements. In fact, our great nation was founded on speaking our minds."

Oh, wait. Neither do I.
