Frankly, I am offended that Steve brought Bozo into this thread.

Perhaps he has a Bozo phobia. He should be directed to MMSC's thread in esoteric.

Clowns have that wicked, sneaky, perverted thing going.
People are, for the most part, terrified of Clowns.

Most of the inmates here are afraid of sexually aggressive women...which is why you don't get a lot of replies.








As you know......................

Why would you say he was not patriotic? By the way, I am not an expert on Helms. I don't know that much about him. I can't say for sure that he wasn't a racist.

But in general, I am always hearing people accuse conservatives of being racists and most of the time the accusations are completely unfounded. Just because a person is against affirmative action, etc., that doesn't make them a racist. In fact, you could argue the exact opposite.

If Helms was such a racist, why did he have a black press secretary?

I don't think Helms cared about the black press. He knew he wasn't going to get the black vote. There was no reason for him to appease the black press.

Pgardn said, "Helms was not a politician. He stated his views rather clearly."

If Pgardn is right, then Helms would not have been the kind of guy to hire a black press secretary for political reasons. He must have hired the guy because he thought he was the best guy for the job. Someone who will hire the best person for the job, regardless of race, is not a racist.

Don't recall you ever saying you lived in NC. I, however, did.. Like most of the current neo con phonies, Helms masterfully traded on fear to stay elected, a prequel to the playbook for the current scum in office. He eagerly blocked progressive measures in the Senate for years. Evil? Yeah, I'm funny that way. I tend to find those that go out of their way to inhibit the quality of life of others, evil.

Spyder reporting from the Carolinas';

When I came down here from Cleveland in 1974 I was shocked to realize that the Civil War had not ended.

Visiting my Southern girlfriends parents in Smithfield, NC I was welcomed by a sign coming into town..."The KKK Welcomes You to Smithfield"
.......oh boy!

Many people here hated blacks and Northerners. It was obvious.

Helms was from that mold and used that wedge to motivate these people for years and years. It was quite sad to see such limited vision by actual human beings. I found it quite refreshing when a friend was asked why he was here by some of these people to reply...."I just wanted to come down here to see what we won!"

But times have changed. It seems most people are from Ohio, PA, and NY.

Still in the backwoods, and there are plenty, these attitudes still exist.
