As Jesse Helms slipped into incontinence and dementia and finally death, the left finally seemed to find the ability to fight him. Posts all over the web went up noting the virulent vitriol that spewed from Helms' "talkin' hole" throughout his years. The time to fight him and mock him isn't now though. At this point he's simply sliding into the footnote on American zealotry that over time he will become. (History tends to remember those that bring us forward and forget those that held us back.)
Now is the time to deride our current bigots. Their hypocrisies and haterations should be called to the forefront now. Or, as the call goes in the video for New York born and bred band Knock 'Em Alive's video for "Golden Bulletproof Parachute": Become a bigot bigot. Now.
