I'd probably have a bigger reaction to his death if he'd been relevant or meaningful at any time in the last few years. And meanwhile, we have people like Representative Myrick representing us nationally and making us look like 'tards. Which maybe brings up point two on the God score: if there was a God and she wasn't going to take Jesse from us (and who would want him?), maybe she could have at least afflicted the racists who voted for him time and time again with boils or locusts or boils that released locusts when they burst open.<BR/><BR/>Helms was one of the worst things to happen to North Carolina since the Civil War. He made us look like trash, he brought our our worst citizens' worst behavior every election day, catered to this state's racist and paranoid elements and rubbed salt in their wounds, and he didn't even bring home the bacon--he was at least so consistent in his principles that he regularly voted against government spending that would bring money to North Carolina.<BR/><BR/>He was a fool and a rotten, vicious little prick and I had to live with him as one of my elected leaders for the first thirty years of my life.<BR/><BR/>Hell's too good for him, and I'm not going to say anything more about the matter.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18275812152895151542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243351006478134285.post-71089502030858353122008-07-05T18:46:00.000-05:002008-07-05T18:46:00.000-05:00Nah.I hope God is as you describe.
