GOP Congressman Dies

Rep. Charles Norwood of GA has passed away after a battle with cancer.

Not being from Georgia I don't know anything about the man except one bit of useless trivia associated with his name.

Remember that Bush-Gore debate in 2000 when Bush was rebutting an answer that Gore gave and Gore - the "alpha male" - walked right up to Bush and got into his personal space?

Bush just kind of gave the Gorebot a quizzical look over his shoulder and went back to his answer. There was nervous laughter from the audience (probably because they were wondering if Gore was going to push him or something) and Gore, erroneously thinking they were laughing with him, just gave this dopey smile and pressed Bush: "what about the Dingle-Norwood bill?".

I believe that this gentleman is that Norwood.

R.I.P.
