    If you want to know more about Helms, there is a very interesting article on the first page of The New York Times today that you should read. I had no idea that this man was so stoneaged. he hated Modern Art and did not want to fund a cure for AIDS. Even Regan didn't go that far.

    ……..NOT TO WORRY! I GAVE MY FAVORITE REDNECK OL' BIGOTED SOUTHER SENATOR HIS CHOICE OF PUNISHMENTS HERE IN HELL.
    …………………
    ……1ST WAS MY "DOGS OF WAR ROOM"! JESSIE NOTICED REPUBLICUNTS, FOX NEWS ANCHORS, AND RIGHT-WING RADIO GAS BAGS WERE BEING RIPPED APART BY RABID DOGS. ……..HE DECLINED.
    ………….

    …….2ND WAS MY "FALSE PROPHET" ROOM. SANCTIMONIOUS REPUBLICUNT EVANGELICALS, LED BY REV. FALWELL AND OTHER G.O.P. DONORS & POLITICIANS WERE BEATEN AND SLOWLY CRUICIFIED. AFTER DEATH, THEY ROSE AND IT ALL STARTED OVER. ……….AGAIN, JESSE DECLINED.
    ……………………..
    …………LAST WAS MY "SEX ROOM"! …..ON A SUMPTUOUS SATIN BED I HAD PRESIDENT NIXON HAVING HIS DICK SUCKED BY LEONA HELMSLEY: "SATAN, AT LEAST THIS IS BETTER THAN MY OTHER CHOICES; THIS IS THE PLACE I CHOOSE TO SPEND ETERNITY". I ASKED, "ARE YOU SURE"?…. JESSE REPLIED, "HERE IS WHERE I WANT TO SPEND ALL OF ETERNITY."
    ……………..SO…………I SAID AS I PUSHED HIM IN: "LEONA, YOU ARE RELIEVED."

    This was the same waste of oxygen whom in the 80's said "if every gay man stopped their activity, we would never have another case of AIDS other than the ones presently." What a stupid twat.

    Re: Wendi
    WENDI, HOMOSEXUALITY IS AN ABOMINATION TO GOD. BUT IT'S NO WORSE THAN ANY SEXUAL SIN OF MANKIND. DID YOU HAVE PREMARITAL SEX? DID YOU FANTASIZE ABOUT HAVING SEX WITH SOMEONE? IF SO, DO NOT BE TOO SELF-RIGHTEOUS. ONE IS THE SAME AS THE OTHER. GOD DID NOT WRITE THE TEN COMMANDMENTS AND SAY-"BUT, YOU KNOW, 4 AND 5 AND 9 ARE WORSE THAN 2 AND 7." WE ARE ALL SINNERS. CHRIST IS OUR ONLY HOPE FOR SALVATION.

    A few classic Helms' quotes:

    *"Homosexuals are weak, morally sick wretches."
    *"All Latins are volatile people. Hence, I was not surprised at the volatile reaction."
    *"They should ask their parents if it would be all right for their son or daughter to marry a Negro."
    *"The Negro cannot count forever on the kind restraint that has thus far left him free to clog the streets, disrupt traffic and commerce, and interfere with other men's rights."

    That's alright. If this was truly a "Free" country, I propose we take his body, hang it to a tree, cut his d*ck off, burn him and then have a bunch of Black people take a happy picture under his useless body. Give him a taste of what his sick ass constituents, who he loved to serve, did to innocent people.

    One thing about Jesse Helms is that whether you agreed with his position or the complete opposite of his position, you always knew where he stood, so unlike most politicians, including our two current Presidential candidates, who will say practically anything to get elected. Also, let's not forget that near the end of his political career, Helms helped Bono raise money for AIDS relief, proving that no man is beyond redemption.

    Rest in peace? Are you crazazy? This intolerant bigot is a stain on our nation, our Senate, and the Carolinas.

    If his hatred were directed at gays the way it was against Black people, would you be so generous, Perez?

    And by the way, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) is still alive and, no doubt, still wearing his "garments."

    How come Jesse Helms opinions are "racist" and "bigoted"…..and those of Reverend Wright and all the other white-hating, America-hating people with whom Obama surrounds himself are "free speech"???

    Re: Mark – Well, number 6,…Mammy sure knows this man.
    Big buddies with the religious lunatics Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson. And others.
    This man was one of the many old school conservatives, rapidly becoming extinct, that stood for sexism, racism, bigotry, and homophobia. A militant ultra-conservative who stood for archaic protestant absolutism and literal interpretation of the bible—and legislating according to that.
    God rest his soul.
    But one day, thank the Lawd, all of these racist, sexist, bigoted homophobes will all be dead—and the USA can begin to make giant strides into a modern world of equality and equity for all.

    Jesse was my ex-lover. I shall miss him. He loved my to dry fuck his asshole while I tweaked his nipples with a car battery. Our safe word was Rosa.
    It became a hassle to fuck him later in life. Trying to remove a colostomy bag with one hand, with a bottle of poppers in another is more work than I wanted to do.
    Now he is jacking off with the best of them. Dahmer, Falwell, and Chuck Heston.

    dinos…..how old are you? 12?

    Ted Kennedy is a very liberal senator STILL ALIVE from Mass. and the brother of President Kennedy. Ted has a malignant tumor on his brain and they do not think he will beat it.

    Please try to read and learn more about the world before you call someone obviously smarter than you, a "dumbass".

    BTW will you rejoice when he is dead?

    I am not a fan but I won't be happy and wish he suffers for eternity like most of the hateful people here.
