    Glenn

    There is some symbolism in there somewhere -- that the death of Jesse Helms ends up delaying by one day the evisceration of the Fourth Amendment and the rule of law in the United States.

    I'll leave it to Little Brother and others to express it.

    I kinda wanted to stay in denial a little longer, but yes, that will be fun.
