Progressive Democrats wasted no time eulogizing the legacy of Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-Ariz.), a progressive lion of the lower chamber who died on Thursday at the age of 77 after a battle with lung cancer.

Huddled at the Democrats’ annual retreat in Northern Virginia, the melancholy lawmakers remembered Grijalva not only as a fierce champion of the environment, immigrant rights and economic justice, but also as a mentor to like-minded lawmakers who viewed him as a hero and role model.

Grijalva, said Rep. Greg Casar (D-Texas), the chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC), was “a real giant of the House and of the progressive movement … a champion of the environment and environmental justice …  and he was a real mentor and friend to me.”

If liberals "eulogize" someone, it's a pity party for losing another communist.

I never heard of him.  Yes, a real champion!  That is their problem, every wanker is a champion, that is how bad their ranks are.  They have nothing, they are so bankrupt!

May he RIP, none the less.

He was a giant something all right.
