Holocaust survivors should be respected in the same way we respect POW’s from Viet Nam. They have proven their strength. Remember professor Librescu who sacrificed himself to save his students at Virginia Tech? RIP Lantos.

Despite his political beliefs/actions, the first thing that came to mind when I saw this headline that he has died was the image of him when the Code Pink moonbat attacked Condi at a hearing a few months ago. Virtually EVERYONE else just froze dumbly in shock for a few moments before reacting, but Lantos unhesitatingly grabbed the loon's arm. As frail as he was, he just instinctively tried to intervene. I gained some respect for Lantos that day.

Condolences to his family.

Thanks for posting that picture and for reminding us that there is some good even in some of the most leftwing of congressional members. RIP, Mr. Lantos.
