Here's to You, Tom Lantos

Rep. Tom Lantos, a Holocaust survivor, died today at 80 after a fight with cancer. He died in Maryland of cancer of the esophagus.

Lantos will be very much missed in Congress, where he was a strong and consistent voice for human rights. Having lived through the Holocaust, he exemplified the saying "never again."

Here's to Tom Lantos, a man of character who firmly stood up for his principles.
