Down the Hatch

It’s hard to see the humor in making the Keystone Kops to stop in the middle of handcuffing the poodle who caused caused the paddywagon to crash into the lake, just to file a report in triplicate to the chief of police — but then Orrin Hatch never came across as a funny guy. He is however politically astute:

Sen. Orrin Hatch, a Republican from Utah, wants Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to update Congress once a month on the progress of the Affordable Care Act.

“No more excuses,” Hatch told her during a Senate hearing Wednesday morning. “No more spin, just give us the truth.”

He wants Sebelius to give him the truth? I take it back — Hatch is a funny guy.
