Comments on An American Hero

that totally made my day. thank you.

That's very awesome.

That's the kind of spirit that makes this country great. That guy just gave up approximately a quarter of a million dollars in wages (if he were to retire at 55) to give Helms the finger.

Yes.

It will never be said enough that Jesse Helms was a total piece of shit.
However, at least we still have some true patriots like L.F. Eason III.

@3 --- what? How did you get that figure? He is not 29 -- he worked already for 29 years.....

An inspiration to stand up for your beliefs. Amazing.
thanks for this post.

I waited for Helms to die for a long time. I waited a long time for that pope to die too. It was, I'd like to say, worth the wait. Very satisfying. Yes indeed. Evil old men must die. And the living get to flip them off. Suck this Helms!

Thanks, that made my day, too.

That man deserves a salute.

Wow! I would love to give that man a million dollars if I could. I'd also like to shake his hand and thank him. can't do that either. Guess I'll just sing his praises here in slog! Rock on Mr. Flag Man!!! Yah!

Now someone will burn a cross on his lawn.

We need to come up with something that's the OPPOSITE of lowering the flag to half-mast, if only to be ready when some other disgusting person dies, to indicate how much better off the country is...

A special extender rod that flies the flag at mast-and-a-half?

A much much bigger flag?

A flag where all the stars are replaced by smiley faces?

Lowering the American flag for a shitstain like Jesse Helms is the ultimate act of flag desecration.

There really oughta be a law....

This beats Brooks calling Helms a white racist.

oh seth, you are inspired! i adore you. great ideas, all, but personally favor the first one.
