Subject: Jesse Helms, come on down.

Written By: Foo Bar on 07/04/08 at 2:02 pm

First George Carlin, he's the class clown,
Then came Bozo, the built-to-last clown,
There's one more type of clown who's passed on,
It's Jesse Helms; he was an assclown.

And with that personal note out of the way, I'll leave the rest of the euologizing to MC Hawking, who finally got his wish.

Jesse finally gave up the ghost.  Will he be buried with copies of all of his asinine bills?

RIP You old blow hard. :\'(

Do I detect a note of hostility? Surly everyone must be so distraught over the passing of such a illustrious statesman.

Helms' father was a policeman and a fireman, and police chief and fire chief.  I am sure it was all above board and honest.  Now we definitely know where Jesse got his ethics.  ::)

With the slight attack on Ted Kennedy.

Jesse Helm never said he wasn't a bigot.

I believe in a merciful God...so Jesse will just get a bunch of NEA-funded B&D leather performance artists peeing on him for eternity!

So Karen Finley goes to hell and Jesse Helms goes to heaven?  The mind of God truly is inscrutable to us mortals...

Finley Trivia Fact #1:  In addition to being an almost-cover of Anne Clark's Sleeper in Metropolis, Karen Finley's Tales of Taboo will render you unable to eat Belgian Waffles (or yams, for that matter) without bursting out in giggles.  Thanksgiving dinner will be... amusing.

Finley Trivia Fact #2:  Putting (Radio Mix) beside the name of the song on the 12" vinyl immediately lends itself to one of the funniest pranks you could ever play on a DJ.  "Play that mix.  It's the one that's safest for radio."  Hilarity ensues...

I know all about Karen Finley and "the canned yam jam" (I don't mean preserves here), and the chocolate syrup.  Self-parody sells!
She did indeed once get an NEA grant, so she was fodder for Unca Jesse's senate floor diatribes.  It's not so much that Jesse didn't like dirty pictures (he probably had a pr0n collection that'd make Larry Flynt blush); what Helms hated was ideas threatening to the good ole boy South.  The NC senator was none too fond of anti-smoking activists either!
