Hatch silencing Republican corruption stories - I smell conspiracy!
My revolting Senator is Orrin Hatch. Once before I sent him a news link to a story on ABC News that exposed White House wrongdoing, only to find the story mysteriously disappeared soon after.

Today, I sent an email to Hatch with the link to the Wilkes ADCS scandal: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=2292039&mesg_id=2292039

Now the link to that story no longer works: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x2291706

Methinks my revolting Senator has been busy covering for his crooked pals by getting a story killed.

Did this story get stored in the archives before the link was killed, by any chance?

If you're "represented" by a 'puke, keep an eye on 'im. If there's one that isn't crooked, I haven't found them yet.

a staff member assigned to this sort of 'work'. Let's keep this story kicked!

8. I wouldn't put it past him.
I've despised him ever since I called his office to talk about Social Security, and when I told one of his aides "what are you going to do next, execute people?" (meaning the poor and disabled, and me specifically). She said "I'd press the button."

If he encourages aides like that, he no longer deserves to hold office.
