Fey foe dead on the 4th of July...From NYT:

Jesse Helms, the former North Carolina Senator whose courtly manner and mossy drawl barely masked a hard-edged conservatism that opposed civil rights, gay rights, foreign aid and modern art, died early Friday. He was 86.

The White House said that "America lost a great public servant and a true patriot today." Among the inimitable  comments delivered by this great public servant:


That the University of North Carolina  should be renamed "the University of Negroes and Communists;"

That black civil rights activists are really "communists and sex perverts;" and

That gayz are "weak, morally sick wretches."

I'll leave you with the true patriot's classic "Hands" ad from his racist 1990 campaign.
