Tom Lantos is retiring due to esophageal cancer, leaving the field open for Jackie Speier to take his Congressional seat. I wish him the best with his health, but I'm glad he's leaving the House. Link below the fold.
Note: I edited this based on comments, but the bottom line is that there's really no nice way to say that you're glad someone's health is pushing him out of office. I wish something else had done so, but Lantos refused to retire despite his considerable age, and his voting record on foreign policy has been simply awful. I will not be sorry to see him go, but I hope he lives many more years quietly, in retirement.
