RIP John. Many people can honestly say that they left this nation a little better than they found it. Relatively fewer people that actually DO so, have the humility not to talk about it very much. Unfortunately, fewer still succeed in politics. Thanks for everything. Hope I see you topside, Sir!
Let's keep the threads separate with emphasis that this one is for the memory of the man. The other one is for: Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears; I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him. The evil that men do lives after them; The good is oft interred with their bones; So let it be with Caesar. . . . Bob Wilson
tochat had requested another thread because of the political nature of that one, and much disrespect for the dead.
