Orrin Hatch Admits The GOP Plan

GOP Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah knows what the GOP Plan is and why the GOP needs it:

Hatch asserted that the health bills, which he believes is a "step by step approach to socialized medicine," will lead to Americans' dependence on Democrats for their health and other issues.

"And if they get there, of course, you're going to have a very rough time having a two-party system in this country, because almost everybody's going to say, 'All we ever were, all we ever are, all we ever hope to be depends on the Democratic Party,'" Hatch said during an interview with the conservative CNSNews.com.

"That's their goal," Hatch added. "That's what keeps Democrats in power."

That claim led Hatch to suggest that some Democrats are "diabolical" in their pursuit of health reform.

In other words, if the Democrats can take credit for health care reform, people will vote for them in the future. The fact that Republicans could have done this and instead chose to give Big Pharma a multi-billion dollar gift with it says volumes.

Hey Orrin, doesn't this mean that Republicans would still be in charge if they passed meaningful health care legislation?

Of course, affordable health care doesn't matter to Orrin Hatch. If you're a Republican, the only thing that matters is raw political power. This is the only reason why Democrats could want to pass a bill like this in the eyes of a Republican like Hatch.
