This just in: Jesse Helms making himself right at home in his new room in HELL!
He was a despicable man. He referred to blacks as "niggers" and asians as "slants". He hated gays, and blamed them for the AIDS epidemic. He fought against giving blacks the right to vote. He threatened the life of a sitting president. And now he's dead.
Whoopee! Hooray!! Hallelujiah!
If there is a hell, Jesse Helms is surely roasting in it right now. And all those who heap praise on him, from the Heritage Foundation to FoxNews to conservative politicians, are just as racist and hateful as he was.
Why do we have to speak kindly about someone just because they're dead? I'm glad he's gone. He was a terrible American and a terrible human being.
