Jesse Helms Is Dead

By talkleft

The AP reports:

Former Sen. Jesse Helms, who built a career along the fault lines of racial politics and battled liberals, Communists and the occasional fellow Republican during 30 conservative years in Congress, died on the Fourth of July. He was 86.

We do not speak ill of the dead at TalkLeft, at least on the day of the death. Keep that in mind if you feel a need to comment.

RIP, Jesse Helms.

Your hypocrisy is amazing.

Your hypocrisy is amazing. Weren't you and fu bush the ones bitching about some dumbass on the Carlin board not being respectful on the day of his death? I guess you both went to the Al Gore school of standards where you learned that they should only apply to others, never yourselves.
