Cheering anyone's death is silly -- but Van Buren's point is _not_ silly. Too bad he died, but if he was a creep, that fact should not be obliterated by his death. Anyone who gave significant help to building up support for the current holocaust in Iraq is certainly as much a creep as anyone sitting in death row someplace.
