That one is taken out of context, I said McCain should be attacked on his other issue stances. I do however stand by my statement that Jesse Helms is racist scum. The man voted against a nonbinding resolution opposing apartheid in South Africa. Conservatives oppose apartheid, Jesse Helms is just a weasely racist demagogue.
"The man voted against a nonbinding resolution opposing apartheid in South Africa"
There were reasons other than race. What do you know about the ANC? Not much, I'd say.
"Jesse Helms is just a weasely racist demagogue."
How do you "feel" about Robert Byrd?
Jesse Helms always said "no" to communists, which was all the anti-apartheid crew in South Africa were--and are. Check out where their funding came from, and who took over that sorry country after most of the whites were chased out. (I've spoken to many of them; thousands ended up here in N.C.)
You need to get your head out of television land, and start doing some serious research before shooting off your mouth.
I think it would help you to become better informed on what "apartheid" in Africa involved.
