Jack Kemp was a typical supply-side Reganish conservative. But to his great credit his personality didn't fit at all with the hatemouthed meanhearts of this decade. He was a 'big tent' kinda guy. The kind that always presents a respectful political argument. You might very well disagree with Congressman Kemp but never find him dissagreeable. He'll be missed.
Yup, typical supply-side conservative. Typically right.
Too intelligent for today's fashionable intellectuals.
Great guy. Great leader. Great mind. Truly a loss to our state and nation.
He was a Republican and a union member?? How strange.
