    CNN: Breaking News - US Rep Lantos (D-CA) Dies

    Hungarian immigrant, Holocaust survivor, US Representative for 30+ years dies of esophageal cancer.

    I'll post a link to a full article as it becomes available.

    [Update: Sorry, I originally attributed the title here as him being from New Jersey, but he is in fact from CA - sorry. Must have got some details confused]

    I'm sorry to hear this, even though he did have a NumbersUSA immigration grade of F. Lantos was scheduled for retirement from the U.S. Congress this year.

    Year after year I keep expecting news of Robert Byrd's passing, but the old goat just keeps on going. Heck, I hope he lives forever. He's one of the few Democrats in the U.S. Senate that has consistently voted against amnesty for illegals. Actually, he and Sen. Dorgan are the only two Democrats in the senate we can depend on where amnesty is concerned.

    R.I.P Rep. Lantos.

    Does Arnold pick a replacement for him? I hope they have a Numbers USA rating of A or B.
