Good riddance. He lived 82 years too many. He was a self-serving weasel. He came up with a bill to try to ban violence in movies in Hollywood. ..Then he turned around and voted for real life violence when he was one of the first senators to vote for the Iraq war before he even knew what the war was about.

Best comment on the board. He served them, and sold out Americans who needed health coverage; while he enjoyed free unlimited government health coverage, which we paid for.

I think our civil servants have lost their way… instead of being humble, recognizing the sanctity and true weight of the trust and faith they are given… we have self serving, ego driven power hungry people that are much more interested in ruling by their own needs than the will of the people who give them power… they are truly lost in their function in society and have absolutely no respect for their own position, the constitution or the people they supposedly serve

Also this guy later in his political career would regularly jump from one political party to another whenever he felt he wasn't getting his way.
