Deepest sympathies to his family.
To every one else who has any decent values ...
Another good example of they why they say, only the good die young.
He was a very, very, very, very bad man. A hate monger. A pock mark on real American values.
Full Version: Former Sen. Jesse Helms dies at 86
Hyp-o-crite.
You mourn the soon death of a murderer but you call someone whose political views clash with yours a fascist when they die? Oh wait, 'Ted' just killed one of those whores, not much of a lost eh?

The Lion of the Left, a great American hero, is having a crisis.
I hope he pulls through so he can live to see President Obama and a big majority in the Senate and the House.
Now, lets watch you fascists attack a man when he is really down.

Huh? What murderer are you talking about? Has Ted been convicted of murder?
As far as Jesse, there are no words strong enough to condemn that dead hate mongerer.
Murderer as in your precious Teddy. Man, I thought even you would know about Mary Jo Kopechne!
This sums it up nicely.

Now that I've supplied my reasonings, it would be nice of you to explain why Jesse is a hate mongering fascist.

That is self evident. Are you not familiar with the man and his filthy deeds? He was a bad man and we can only pray America never sees his scummy kind ever again.

What is unique about Helms -- and from my viewpoint, unforgivable -- is his willingness to pick at the scab of the great wound of American history, the legacy of slavery and segregation, and to inflame racial resentment against African Americans.
To the best of my knowledge, Helms has never done what the late George Wallace did well before his death -- recant and apologize for his use of racial issues. And that use was blatant.
"Racial epithets and standing in school doors are no longer fashionable," Peterson wrote, "but 1984 proved that the ugly politics of race are alive and well. Helms is their master."
All year, Peterson reported, "Helms campaign literature sounded a drumbeat of warnings about black voter-registration drives. . . . On election eve, he accused Hunt of being supported by 'homosexuals, the labor union bosses and the crooks' and said he feared a large 'bloc vote.' What did he mean? 'The black vote,' Helms said." He won, 52 percent to 48 percent.
That is not a history to be sanitized.

"...there are no words strong enough to condemn that dead hate mongerer."....
Hate mongerer? Well, I guess Jesse will have to wait in Hell for another hate mongerer to join him----Jeremiah Wright!

Don't forget that other Jesse...Jackson.
He's the one with the sharp knife.
