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.

Yeah, you love to talk about
Yeah, you love to talk about people "going too far", but how quickly you forget telling someone to make sure to let you know when one of their family members dies so you can laugh at them, telling them to think about you laughing while at their loved one's funeral. Your standards only apply to everyone else, you love to claim the moral high ground, but you throw low blows every chance you get. Your party is rightly ashamed of assholes like you two.
