I thought you mind find this amusing, at one time, Rick Flair went to a Jesse Helms fund raiser (they are friends), at this time, Ted Turner owned WCW, he supposedly went ballistic. Turners hatred for Helms knows no bounds, and he had donated money to Helms opponent, so having his employee stumping and helping to raise money for Helms drove him nuts. Anything that could piss off turner like that always will make me smile.

As I recall, in 1985, Helms and Turner joined forces in an abortive attempt to buy CBS and make it into a "conservative" network. Thereafter, Turner turned far to the left.
