the first time I heard him speak, I was awed that a man of that high calibre had even managed to get into the Senate.

You may disagree with his basic politics....but he cared.

R.I.P.

There is an even more extensive, excellent write-up of him now at this site

Sorry, toadfrog, hit a raw nerve.

An elegant, articulate, and brilliant man who was largely responsible for the horrendous regressive tax legislation of 1996.

toadfrog, I CHOSE the OBIT label, as the drop down menu indicates one should do in these instances. I do NOT consider it BS, however I don't have a problem with moving it. Just know that if one does the proper thing and chooses OBIT, this, the top of the forum is where it lands.

No offense Kat, but why is this not properly labled as BS?

That's a real shock. And a loss. Unlikely that his succssor will ever fill his shoes.

One of the great and decent politicians of our times has passed away. I wish we had some like him serving right now.

Rest well, kind sir, and thanks for all that you did.
