Thank you for this post.

I can understand the notion that grave dancing is unseemly. If you feel that way, don't do it yourself. But learn the lesson of the unfortunate Helms, and leave others to do and be as they please, and not as YOU would have it.

As for grave dancing...Jesse Helms deserves a Coachella-sized Lord of the Dance revival while the earth is still fresh.

It's a shame I don't believe in hell, 'cuz I love the idea of those two d-bags arguing over how to destroy the country quicker while being butt-raped by Saddam and Satan.

Y'all should join the Westboro Baptist Church. You have very similar belief systems.
