He knew the score and tried to warn anyone who would listen. I miss him and can only imagine what he’d have to say about the current state of affairs.

NY Rep Peter King was quoted as saying "Shut it down!"

Chuck was saying "Don't let the door hit ya"....politely.

They'll all say something "nice". That's the statesmanlike thing to do

*Nope* He said that Peter King stood for PETER KING'S convictions, not his own.

It was a statesman's "See ya"

Praising someone and saying you’ll miss them is not any kind of ‘don’t let the door hit ya’ sentiment.

"And don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out."

Screw Peter King, one of the biggest liars in Congress.
