Senator Richard Lugar passed away today. We should all mourn his passing, as he was a decent man, and a politician that I wish others would aspire to be. He wasn’t afraid to cross the aisle and work with Democrats to forge important legislation, such as Nunn-Lugar, which provided funds to protect WMD technology and material in the former Soviet Union from being stolen or dispersed. Perhaps one of the most important programs of our time, which kept untold quantities of WMD out of circulation.

Well said sir. A non partisan Patriot senator-- seems a dying breed. Nunn-Lugar enactment in today’s reality would be a non event. We are worse off with his loss if his example of bi-partisan leadership is not followed by his successors.
Totally agree…

Dick Lugar has passed? There was a shot I might win my death pool, but now, that has been blown!

I’m normally all for all sorts of humor, but this seems in particularly poor taste. Good day, sir.
