The mixed bag of nuts known as the Religious/Christian Right is now one nut short tonight.  Hatemonger and imbecile Senator Jesse Helms is dead today at age 86.  Helms(in the typical Southern style) began his political career as a supporter of segregation and later made the headlines for a controvercial commercial during his 1990 Senate campaign.  In the commercial a white man crumples up a rejection letter, having lost out on a job to a less-qualified minority "because of a racial quota."   This in an election where Helms was running against a Black man, Harvey Gantt.  Helms' racist side showed once more in 1983 when the Senator was opposed to the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday, citing that two of King's associates had "communist ties".  Also during the same time frame, Helms was a strong supporter of the tobacco industry and even received the support of companies such as RJ Reynolds and Phillip Morris.  Helms also once offended Senator Carol Moseley-Braun of Illinois by singing "Dixie" in an elevator with her.

     "Soon after the Senate vote on the Confederate flag insignia, Sen. Jesse Helms (R.-N.C.) ran into Mosely-Braun in a Capitol elevator. Helms turned to his friend, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R.-Utah), and said, "Watch me make her cry. I'm going to make her cry. I'm going to sing 'Dixie' until she cries." He then proceeded to sing the song about "the good life" during slavery to Mosely-Braun (Gannett News Service, 1993-09-02; Time, 1993-08-16)."

What a shame that a hemorrhoid like this died on a national holiday like Independence Day.  A despicable man does not deserve such an honor.  Republican Christians are like cancerous tumors: when one goes away, they continue to multiply and regenerate.  And there's no shortage of Republican polyps in our world today. 

Good bye Senator Helms.  If you thought the South was hot in the summer, just imagine how hot the palce you're headed for is!

And democrate are mindless. That can't make their mind what to add to a bill or how to pass it. Thats why demo never accomplish anything.They like to spend and tax the people.
Which political party starting giving annity payments to immigrants and they received social security at 65 without paying anything into it. THE DEMOCRATES.That maybe why some of you wont ever receive social security. I guess some people don't care about that. The Demo party took social security from the independent fund and put it into the general fund so congress could spend it.They are responsible for taxing social security annuities. They are idiots, they are not for the people.

I guess you were happy when Ronald Reagan died too, right Polar Bear?
Senator Helms may not of been the greatest person that have been in government...but he did his job to the best of his ability. Of course, you don't mention Senator Byrd who thinks he's the authority on the Constitution even though he had a past like Jessie Helms did. I think that Supreme Court Justice Anton Scalia has a better grasp on the original meaning of the Constitution than Senator Byrd has.

You're kidding, right? Scalia is the perfect example of the "activist judges" they like to talk about. He interpreted the constitution to fit HIS needs.

A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

He(and the other four conservative morons) completely ignored the part about "a well regulated militia" just to overturn a gun ban that has kept DC safe for the last thirty years.
