This article does not exist for the purpose of advertising for any candidate for political office. The external link to the democratic candidate Christine Cegelis's website is inappropriate. I find it interesting that Goethean, who on his user page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Goethean seems to be SO concerned about being neutral, found it necessary to include it. Where is the link to the republican candidate's web site? I have decided the only neutral thing to do is to delete it again.
I reverted the deletion of the picture of Hyde & Snodgrass. There was no reason given for its deletion on the talk page. Also it was not described in the edit summary. If there was a valid reason for its removal, please let me know. Otherwise, I think it should remain. 01:48, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
People under-rate this guy, he's one of the best "old school" reps left in the entire house. (repost of deleted comments) EZZIE 07:57, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

This paragraph needs a citation. Also, did it the Times really endorse Hyde to succeed Hastert, when he'd already announced his retirement? That doesn't make a lot of sense. - Pete 10:14, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
I removed the statement in the infobox that said Hyde remarried in December 2006. I scoured the Web and also ran a search on ProQuest and found no mentions of Hyde getting married. If he actually did, a reference confirming it should be added to the article. Dce7 06:58, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Image:Hydesnodgrass.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot 00:32, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
This should be better noted with the citation of the Washington Times article dated, January 25, 2001 by Tom Knott, titled - "Member of Hyde family lives in fear of Alec Baldwin"
The news article noted this direct quote by Alec Baldwin on the Conan O'Brien Show:
"I'm thinking to myself if we were in other countries, we would, all right now, all of us together would go down to Washington and we would stone Henry Hyde to death," Mr. Baldwin said two years ago. "We would stone him to death. (Crowd cheers.) Wait. Shut up. Shut up. No, shut up. I'm not finished. We would stone Henry Hyde to death and we would go to their homes and we'd kill their wives, and their children. We would kill their families."
I am looking for others right now, but the point is Mr Baldwin was not "tongue-in-cheek" but his threat was serious, with long term consequences for Hyde and his family. This makes it notable and should be included. Willie Peter 00:53, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
Hyde was largely responsible for blocking British access to some F-35 Lightning II technology which threatened to scupper British participation in the project. i think it is worth a mention in his political career but i don't know enough to write an authoratative edit.

Would you believe (not knowing he was ill) I checked this article yesterday, to see if Hyde was still alive. GoodDay ( talk) 22:32, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
The news articles relating to Henry Hyde's death are now no longer available. Perhaps there is another source that can replace them? GreenReaper ( talk) 17:45, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Is there no mention of the major foreign policy legislation in the Hyde AcT? Lihaas ( talk) 02:03, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
I added the POV tag to the top of this article. My complaint concerns the treatment of Hyde's role in the Congressional investigation into the Iran-Contra affair. The article makes Hyde a principal in a conspiracy to protect President Reagan and Vice-President Bush from the consequences of the drug crimes they knowingly set into motion. This claim is tendentious and extraordinary, and is supported only by one article, written by a fringe journalist. I propose that this section should either be expanded to take more conventional interpretations of Hyde's role into account -- and frankly, his name doesn't often come up in the literature as a significant player -- or removed entirely. Innocent76 ( talk) 00:27, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
There are issues with the references given for re the "suppression of that contra-cocaine probe" that is implied of Hyde. The NY Times ref does not mention cocaine at all, the second is a blog from a self-published attack book and does not meet
WP:RS. I would appreciate being notified of the ANI case if you decide to put it forward. Thanks.

I thought Propol raised an important point above, although I think he put the cart before the horse. Hyde spent six years as the ranking member on the House Intelligence Committe; he was an energetic defender of broad Presidential discretion in intelligence matters. Perhaps it would contribute to article balance if we did a better job of placing Hyde's efforts to defend Secord, North, et al. in the context of his record? I think the evidence better supports the claim that he consistently defended covert operations notwishstanding the threat they pose to open government, than it does the allegation he was a partisan hack who "suppressed" the truth.

Dear readers-
Yes, Henry was a good man. Question? What happened after? Did his family lay him to rest in the town of Gevena, Illinois where he moved after he retired or was he creamated? Many folks out there would like to have a closer to the story or even visit his grave to pay respects?
With respect,
