Helms action in refusing to even allow a committee vote on Surgeon General was an arrogant display of power.

This must be the "code words" translation of which three eyes speaks.

Arguing as you do that Helms was not a racist shows what a nonthinking, partisan, right-wing extremist political hack you are.
If there's probably one word to describe you, it's nonthinking.

Here's a little bedtime reading for you. An ode to Jesse that I pulled off the Internet. I did a google search for racism and Helms and found more stuff than I could shake a stick at.

"Its the flag of the old confederacy
and it's waving to this day
over the capitals of the south
and the graves where slavery lays

It's the flag of the klan
and of white supremacy
the flag of death and oppression
and the flag of slavery

the flag that cost untold lives
the flag of broken laws
the flag of the white citizens council
and a racist cause

the flag of the confederacy
the flag of a twisted past
the flag of lies and hatred
and the flag of a dying class

it's the flag of jesse helms
and it's smeared with racist slop
it brought shame to millions
and it's better left forgot ....
