Jesse Helms Is Dead
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.

Big surprise
False morality from a phony soldier. But then we're talking about a slimy creep who follows a drug-addicted, Viagra-smuggling closet queen radio host.
Nice role model, Froggy. If I believed in Dog I would pray for your children. As it is, I'll just have to hope you don't take Rush TOO much to heart.
You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them.
