It's been reported that Utah Senator Orrin Hatch, while addressing a gathering of the conservative group, "The Federalist Society" said recently that progressives are just "dumb ass liberals". Well, I have a little address to that group of my own. I only wish I could have been there to deliver my address, to give some counter balance to his remarks.
Oh, alright. I may well have gotten booed off the podium. But it would have been worth it.
Ladies and Gentlemen. And best wishes to my very self esteemed colleague here today, Senator Hatch:
Yes, I concur with Senator Hatch. I say ........ "Damn those annoying liberals". In the late 18th Century, they were pushing that silly idea that people did not need a monarchy. That they could actually govern themselves. How dumb could they be ? Some dumb ass liberals in the middle of the 19th Century actually thought that we could do away with the degrading institution of slavery, even though slavery had existed since biblical times. How dumb ass was that too ? Right Orrin ? And then, as if all that wasn't stupid enough, they even started this ridiculous idea that women should take part in politics and should be allowed to vote. It was an radical liberal idea back then. And look where that has led us today. But it just shows you how dumb ass these dumb ass liberals can be. And then, not content with all THAT stupidity, in the middle of the 20th Century, they started enacting incredibly ridiculous legislation. Such as laws to insure that people would have some financial security in their old age. And laws to protect them from having to live without medical care when they are old and in poor health. Yes, they called it "Social Security" and "Medicare". What WILL those "dumb ass liberals" think of next ? I'll tell you this, Mr. Hatch. With all that stupidity, it's a wonder that those dumb ass liberals even have the nerve to show their faces in public. But they do. With their crazy, dangerous ideas, it's a wonder people don't just spit on liberals when they are seen on the streets.
