On the recordJune 17, 1997
I want to just note about Andy Jacobs, he was often a study of contrasts, and he was someone we needed to have in Congress and we need to have. He was a combat veteran who understood how awful war could be and always worried about sending, in his words, kids off to fight our wars. So he examined each cause for going to war carefully. He was someone who, while many might say he was a liberal Democrat because he believed in programs that helped people, he was probably the tightest person with the taxpayers' nickel that I have run across in a long time. And, finally, Andy was probably someone who, of anyone, would never ask that a post office be named after them.
