In Memoriam

I just wanted to take a moment to remember Stephanie Tubbs Jones, the Ohio Congresswoman who died after suffering an aneurysm on Wednesday evening. She was 58.

Congresswoman Tubbs Jones was an active and vocal member of the House, and co-sponsored legislation to help working families, students, and women. A strong opponent of the war, Tubbs Jones was one of only 11 members in the House sane enough to vote against invading Iraq. She was the chair of the Ethics committee, and served on the powerful Ways and Means committee, as well.

Out of respect for her memory, I'll be saving my angry rant post about John McCain for tomorrow. Today, let's remember Rep. Tubbs Jones, and all the good work she did for Cleveland, and for our country.

Rest in peace, ma'am.
