By Barry Weisleder - I knew Ed Broadbent, who passed on January 12 at age 88. He was a plain-spoken fellow, and a decent man. The injunction against speaking ill of the dead is usually a good guide (although exceptions like Margaret Thatcher come to mind), but it does not imply an oath of silence. The establishment does not deserve to have the last say.
