He'll be joining Pat Robertson as a cockroach in his next life.

I don't have kind words to say about most current politicians since they're usually in a range from bad to terrible. Freedom Fighters who earn truly respectful comments from me are far and few between.

I wouldn't go so far as to claim that but I'd say he's at least guilty of manslaughter plus DUI/DWI and adultry.

Then again the Kennedys are secular saints according to our betters, the bien pensants so they get away with multiples crimes that us mortals get heinous punishments for.

I wonder how much you'd have to bribe the pope to pull that off?

How could it be viewed as symbolic? Huh

It's a shame he didn't get to live long enough to see Barack Obama inaugurated.

OK.  I can't tell what is more tacky, people bashing Helms on his death day (only people who deserve that are murdering scum like Abu Musab al-Zarqawi) or DWTL turning this into another partisan bickering session.

Jesse Helms is dead.  My thoughts are with the Helms family.  Now is not the time to bicker over his legacy.
I agree with the sentiments in your post but I don't think Helms deserves any respect only his family does. I think most of the forum's LGBT group definatley has the right to show him no respect.
Also those of us who are nonchristian or nonwhite. We owe him zero respect whatsoever.

Sure you could and I'm sure you would. At least the guy in my sig never threatened to have blacks arrested for voting though. That's awfully strange, don't you think?

What.

He seriously did that?

What typical republican behavior. And keep in mind, Helms was one of the most liberal republicans in either house.

If you're non-protestant, non-white, non-heterosexual or female(I am the first 3) you have the right to say as much invective about the fascist goon that was Jesse Helms. May he enjoy eternal fire.
