Although most Republicans are more moderate than the right-wing loudmouths, just as most Democrats are more moderate than the left-wing loudmouths, I am always disappointed that extremists find their way to Washington--mostly by whipping the ignorant into a frenzy so they all get out and vote while others are so apathetic they stay home--or by successfully bringing pork to their constituents.
Helms truly was the epitome of all that is ugly in the far right. I don't believe in He11, except that I think people create it for themselves here on earth by their own thoughts and actions.
He and others like him seem to glorify ignorance as something to be cherished (I also see that occurring on the far left, only on different issues). I only hope another just like him doesn't pop up.
