FF RIP

This is really a sad sad day, especially for his wife and young children, but we all feel the loss on this one.

Good man for sure.

Hopefully he had access to the best available healthcare before he passed away, which is something he repeatedly tried to deny to everybody else during his career.

Is this the same Tony Show that perfected the "I already answered that question before" non-answer routine? I wonder if he had to pay royalties to Bill Clinton for that.

May God bless and comfort his family.  He fought hard and I hope and pray we can find a cure some day.

You're an idiot - and I'm being kind and restrained right now.

Rest in peace - he was a great man and an influential speaker.  I am glad that I had the opportunity to meet him - he was a nice man.  My thoughts and prayers go out to his friends and family.

I was worried this was going to happen soon. Everybody liked Tony. He was smart, with a sweet heart, and had a great sense of humor.  It's sad this happened with him having young children in particular. RIP Tony. Sad

Such a loss.  I'm sure we were all thinking that he was nearing his end when he retired last year.

He did always look ill. Screw politics; that's a ghastly thing to happen to anyone. RIP.

The poor man died of cancer in his early '50's. Repeat that sentence over and over in your head and then you might understand why everyone here is so disgusted with what you wrote.

How dare you?  He was a good man; just becasue you don't like his politics, doesn't mean you should disrespect him when he dies.
