Washington Week in Review back in the day. Way back in the day.

RIP

8. When I heard it hit me that I really hadn't seen him on M$NBComcast

He must have asked them for privacy during his illness.

4. Oh no. This loss has touched me. Howard hasn't

been on any talk shows for some time. I always enjoyed his writing and opinions.
May he rest in Peace.

5. He was from Pittsburgh

Sound reasonings, well supported, stated down the middle. He sure made a lot of sense.

6. Man, that's a blow....he was a good one

Really bummed to hear that. EFF cancer, it's everywhere seemingly. Taking the summer off to try and help my Dad who has prostate cancer. Just can't believe we still haven't found a way to beat this dreadful disease yet.

7. Yes, he seemed like a good guy...

As to cancer, I, along with millions of others I'd guess, share your frustration and bewilderment regarding the lack of a cure...We've come so far with so many other things...I don't get it.
