Can someone explain this to me?


Republican senator Elizabeth Dole has just submitted legislation to name an AIDS bill after Jesse Helms.

What.
The.
Fuck.

Just as a refresher, Jesse Helms thought gays and lesbians were the scorage of the earth and that "the government should spend less on people with AIDS because they got sick due to their deliberate, disgusting, revolting conduct."  
This makes no sense to me.  

What a slap in the face to the millions worldwide who suffer from AIDS.  What a slap in the face to everyone period.  To name any bill in the honor of this evil asshole is insulting.    Fortunately he is not alive anymore to foster his hatespeak, but Ms. Dole feels it necessary to attach this piece of shit's name to a bill to, for some reason, continue the rotting senator's legacy.

Now this is the same Senator Dole who is married to Bob. Maybe we should attach her name to the "The Impotent Husband" bill.  Perhaps he doesn't need Viagra.  Maybe he is turned on by intelligence.
