Even in death Helms rids state of commie bastards

Rodg,
    Here we go again. Another asshole who calls policies that he disagrees with 'hate', and cliams a higher law forces his disrespect. A happy ending though.

RALEIGH --
L.F. Eason III gave up the only job he'd ever had rather than lower a flag this week to honor former U.S. Sen. Jesse Helms.

Eason, a 29-year veteran of the state Department of Agriculture, instructed his staff at a small Raleigh lab not to fly the U.S. or N.C. flags at half staff Monday as called for in a directive to all state agencies by Gov. Mike Easley.

When a superior ordered the lab to follow the directive, Eason decided to retire rather than pay tribute to Helms.

In a string of e-mails with his superiors, Eason, 51, was told he could either lower the flags or retire immediately.

He pleaded to be allowed to stay.

A registered Democrat, ... Eason said he had no problems lowering the flag for former ... President Ronald Reagan. But he remembers wondering whether he would be able to lower the flag after President Richard Nixon's funeral.

He never had to make that decision, since it rained both days.

But it was sunny Monday. And Eason is now out of a job.

Another moron that just gives rise to the question, "why aren't most government jobs contracted out to the private sector?"

Love it! The nation is a better place today with one less moron on the government tit. Wait 'til he has to find a real job. ;-}

Kinda makes you wonder how much he was getting paid to raise and lower the flags. I might be willing to relocate if it pays more than I'm getting now, seein' as how there's an opening today.

Me too, pal.

Like thinking about those 35 million dead babies everytime I see Ted Kennedy.

I won't be lowering any flags when his day comes.

Molonlabe28, it's a matter of perspective.

On that fateful day go ahead and lower that flag. The flag will be at half mast because you can mourn the fact it took too long for that day to come.
