And it's a shame some very ungracious FReepers see the passing of a political opponent as an occasion to speak ill of the recently deceased. This thread has some comments that made me blink to make sure I wasn't accidentally on another forum. FreeRepublic is supposed to be conservative, and conservatives are supposed to have manners.
Thanks to those FReepers who understand that when someone dies, it's best to respect that solemn event, and leave any judgments of the person's character and politics to God, before whom all our puny opinions are as dust.

I suppose this includes Hitler, Lenin, Stalin, Mao Tse-tung, etc.
