Per The Hill, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) delivered some memorial remarks on the House floor Friday about his friend, the late columnist and contrarian Christopher Hitchens:
“I don’t think there was a more erudite, knowledgeable individual on the face of this Earth…to his friends he was loyal, gracious and fun. To his foes he was a feared enemy, a feared foe. The world was lucky for his being here and I was lucky for my life intersecting with his. The world shall miss him, a life well lived, rest in peace my friend.”
