Ike Brown: Democrat Party Official, Republican Ally

In a blatant show of racism, this leading Mississippi Democrat shows his true colors (several entendres intended) in a June 24 letter to The Clarion-Ledger:

Ruling lets 'progressive' Democrats lead
The current debate about U.S. District Judge W. Allen Pepper's ruling on primaries is about a power transfer.
For years, Mississippi had been controlled by Dixiecrats in a one-party structure called Democrats; blacks and poor whites were not allowed to vote. In 1965, the Voting Rights Act empowered the two groups to vote. In 1964, the Goldwater revolution began the rise of the modern-day Republican Party. It is controlled by former Dixiecrats.
The present day Democratic Party, of which I am a charter and the only remaining member still on the board, was controlled by "Blue Dog" Democrats with help from Dixiecrat cross-overs.
This is now being brought to an end.
As a result of Judge Pepper's ruling, progressive Democrats will control all statewide and local Democratic nominations; they constitute 85 percent of the party base. "Blue Dogs" like Eric Clark and Jim Hood, Sheriff Malcolm McMillin, Barbara Dunn, Jack Gordon, etc., have won their last Democratic nomination,
What is the basis for this claim is a surging black population, mainly on the eastern side of the state. In DeSoto County, minority population has increased 300 percent; south Madison has doubled; Rankin, Lee, Lowndes, Obtibbeha, Lauderdale, Harrison counties, etc., all have seen huge jumps in minority population.
What's needed is a voter registration, voter runout drive to bring 500,000 African Americans to the polls; there are more than 850,000 eligible African-American voters in Mississippi - roughly 41 percent of the eligible electorate.
As for voter ID, bring it on in the primary; we can handle it. Republicans may find it to be a double-edged sword.
Finally. in many rural counties like Noxubee, Kemper, Winston, Pike, etc., voters will have to start giving state and national Democrats some support or get out of local races entirely. Think about that.

If I was a Republican hack and wanted to write a letter that made the Democrats look stupid and sign a Democrat's name to it, this letter is exactly what I would've written. Mr. Brown has declared war on all White Democrat office-holders in Mississippi. Is this guy stupid? He considers people like Eric Clark to be Republicans in Democrat clothes? If he wants to pursue this course, get out of the way. His racism will merely drive moderate white voters in Mississippi who vote for Democrats to the Republican (bringing back memories of when the NAACP kicked out the Jews).

Some advice for you Mr. Brown. You are a MINORITY!!! That means you don't have enough votes. In order for you to achieve political goals, that means you have to actually work with others instead of throwing bombs or inventing a Black version of the KKK. People think of the Klan as being very stupid and are going to start seeing you in the same way. You are nothing but a racist and will be the Mississippi Democratic Party's worse nightmare if you are ever allowed to run it. If I'm Governor Barbour, I would be doing everything possible to make sure you took over the Democratic Party in Mississippi.

It remains to be seen if so-called "progressives" like The Jackson Free Press or any other Black elected officials criticize your remarks.

Racism is alive and well in Mississippi and it does have a face: Ike Brown. Welcome to the new Mississippi.

Update: Mississippi Democratic Party Officials take action against Brown.

This is precisely what Weeksville Trading Post owner Byron Weeks was up against in Noxubee county when attorney Richard Burdine advised him to plead guilty because a white man cannot get a fair trial in Noxubee county.

Juhnny Redden is in the headlines(Commercial Dispatch and the Columbus Packet) again for assault. Word on the streets is that Jim Hood is personally involved in the Redden case and will hold Judge Lee Coleman's feet to the fire. And, too, former Pro-football player Vernon Studdard has been charged with sexual assault on two females. Studdard has a history of assaults on women, including his own family members.

Who are these former "racist democrats" that fled to the republican party? George Wallace? Nope.

Democrats like to use this line, but with the exception of David Duke (was he ever a democrat), they can't name anybody.

I never knew Vernon Studdard played pro ball. He was a big hero at Ole Miss.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
