The way I looked at it was when he attacked Patraeus and thereby our actions in Iraq he was working to create another Holocaust. Iran takes over southern Iraq and would then strike Israel.

I thought it was very old Testament that a traitor to Israel would be stricken by cancer against the throat from which his words of betrayal came from and fairly soon after he attacked Patreaus.

There is nothing lower in my regard than someone who went though a horror such as the Holocaust that would encourage another Holocaust on others for their own political power.

It’ll go to ultraleft rodent Jackie Speier, a staffer for the 1970s occupant of the seat, Leo Ryan (who went with her boss to Jonestown, he was assassinated, she was wounded). She was already planning to challenge Lantos this year before he decided to retire.

You got that right. He was an America hating communist. All of you need to do a little research on this piece of work before you eulogize him.

He was also a major champion of Planned Parenthood and pro-abortion to the core. That alone dishonors him.

Good point. God's word is true.
