Trivia: The last time there was nobody over 80 in the U.S. Senate was in 1981 between Milton Young’s retirement on Jan 3rd and John C Stennis’ 80th birthday on August 3.

Lautenberg was as much the enemy as any NVA/VC that my generation had to deal with, and I mourn his passing to the same degree that I would mourn the passing of someone shooting at me.

I like that. Well said!

No telling how many babies and women were killed because of his progressivism.

I'm sure he's finding out exactly how many babies and women were killed because of his progressivism right now as we speak. I'd pray to God to have mercy on his soul but there are so many others we have and have not lost that have done more positive things for mankind I'm too busy praying for them. I'll refer Mr. Lautenberg to the prayers of the leftist socialist to ask that God have mercy on his soul.

Perhaps Christie’s appointment can stay on until Nov. 2014:

May he rest in peace.

I, too, wonder what is next.

This gun-grabbing liberal did a lot of damage to our Republic. I don’t wish one second of Hell on anyone, but I am glad to see him gone from Congress.

Actually, I agree with you!!! Christie is in bed with Obama!!! However, choosing an Obamabot will kill his chances to ever become the Pubbie POTUS!!! He’s DOA if he licks Obama’s boots, which he just might do!!! On the other hand....if he has any brains and street smarts...he will appoint a conservative Republican to fiinish out Lautenberg’s remaining term.

If he does this, he will still will re-election to Governor. No Democrat will beat him and, in reality Obama is now a full blown “Lame Duck” and totally damaged goods!!! We shall soon see....if Christie has a real profile in courage or is just another Obamabot America destroyer!!!

I was taught if you can’t say anything nice about someone... but we’ve degenerated so far, I say that dog don’t hunt anymore. Good riddance to bad rubbish!

I have been told by doctors that pneumonia is a very peaceful death.

I once had a full blown case of pneumonia when I was in my early thirties. Let me tell you, it's not peaceful in any way. Damn frightening, if you ask me.

“...This gun-grabbing liberal did a lot of damage to our Republic. I don’t wish one second of Hell on anyone, but I am glad to see him gone from Congress....”

Most won’t talk bad about the dead, but I have absolutely no problem with it at all....so I will do it for ya’ll.
I hope hell had to widened itself and crank up the flames ten-fold just to take this sick, liberal, communist, gun-grabbing, POS in. Let him suffer his just reward and burn in agony forever and ever in a devil’s eternal hell. This creature was an outright enemy to this nation and to all the freedom-loving people in it. Good riddance of some very bad rubbish. On a more positive note, my sincere condolences go out the family.

SO? Proves that you can be a Senator and senile at the same time.

I would not even ask the question..

Christy is and always has been a populist..

To try and fit him into the round or square peg hole is not really possible.

A populist is a politician that essentially rolls with the flow, doing and saying things that make him look politically popular.

If Bill Oreily was a politician, he would be a populist. But since he is not, he calls himself a independent.

This is what Christy is...and there is nothing you or anyone else can do or say to change someone like this. They don’t follow any party dogma, and they are certainly not Conservative and never will be. To say they are therefore liberal, would also be a mistake.

“But I’m a realist, and it’s Jersey...”

That’s my thinking on the matter too.

The old Laut didn’t even rate a link on Drudge, all day long. I think that’s a first.
