Rep. Hall was a staunch conservative, reflective of the East Texas Democrat that dominated Texas for decades. When my DILs father was working in the Middle East and his compound was hit, his office worked to find out his status when we could not contact him, finally letting us know he was safe. You would see him driving his district, behind the wheel, no possie of aids, etc.
What beat him was his age. Just time for him to retire.

I agree. He retires with honor. And he leaves his district in good constitutional conservative hands.
