The passing of a historic figure. I was not an absolute fan, but he really had a unique background among members of Congress.

Yes, he really dared to ask and tell the truth. Hopefully future politicians will learn. --Kent

"It is only in the United States that a penniless survivor of the Holocaust and a fighter in the anti-Nazi underground could have received an education, raised a family, and had the privilege of serving the last three decades of his life as a Member of Congress," he said. "I will never be able to express fully my profoundly felt gratitude to this great country." -- Tom Lantos.
