I like it that Scott's alias, "The Silver Fox," is recited in Franks' complaint.

I love a good catfight.

Wow...this is truly an example of "What a tangled web we weave"...!!!

times like these, we should just bring duels back.. and hope they both hit their target.

politics in MS never ceases to amaze

Seriously? "Casting a poor light and unfavorable character on all Democrats" is a reason for asking him to resign? I can think of a lot of Democrats who need to resign then.

Well, Franks, Hampton and others in the Dem party better watch out now. Anything and everything they do or say can and will be used against them. Morality police indeed. Geesh. I'm so glad they are perfect.

If proved to be leaked by his office, isn't Hood guilty of violating the attorney-client privilege?

Shouldn't he be brought up on ethics violation charges before the state bar association?

All right knucklehead, you know why.

"One can only imagine what Democratic Party elders are thinking right now."

Too easy. Seems that ol' Bubba can't keep his wife satisfied in the sack.

Well, I think we've established one thing about Franks. Can't control his women, whether black, white, named barbara or something else.

As for the pic, should I?

Keep mentioning her name and I will keep zapping.

That pic is wroooooong.

Hey - Musgrove did it and while in office. What's the deal?

Jamie Franks needs to go home, take off his $3,000 suit and his really bad wig and get over his wife divorcing him. Next he needs to face the fact if it's OK for him then it's OK for his wife, too. You can't do what you don't want your wife to do and then start filing lawsuits. You look like a fool.

Mr. Franks is just super mad because he wants to run for a state-wide political office. Big family man--I don't think so.

Sounds pretty damn hypocritical of Jamie.
He should step down, as well. What a fine example to have as the leader of the Democratic Party of Mississippi.

And with regard to state-wide office, someone should go back and look at his election returns last cycle. From what I remember, they were pretty pathetic.

When thinking of little Jamie about 10 years ago, that name keeps up in my mind...

Seems to me that Franks should be careful. If I recall correctly his loss of consortium claim makes his sex life, or lack thereof, with his ex-wife fair game and open to examination. That means his ex can take the stand and be asked questions like, do you suspect your former husband was a switch hitter?

And the stories ARE out there.

Wow! Democracts in MS should really pay attention now. Hope that change is working out for y'all.

After my husband I read the complaint, we literally laughed out loud. SERIOUSLY MS Dems, THIS is the leader of your MS "party".

Jamie? Good luck in the statewide elections. Such a fine example of leadership.

Persoanlly, if I were in the MS democratic party's shoes, I'd be soliciting and recruiting a certain Jackson/Arkansas socialite for some solace and pure financial funding with some of the same morals.

This is just unfreakingbelievable... yes that was one word. But then, Mr. Franks and Mr. Scott have how many words to say, "I'm willing to give up everything the greater good has given me for what? A piece of donkey?" At what point do intelligent people say to themselves, I'm gonna really f myself and any chance at a future. I mean c'mon, did he really think with his....oh yeah, he did.

Sad state of affairs when the Democratic party would be better off handing over the reigns of the party to their opposition as their own leadership is not just making them look foolish, they are destroying the party!

I was listening to the radio today and it sounds like a lot of administrative folks in the Dems are considering flip-flopping...wonder why?

Don't shoot the messenger on this video...it was just too good to pass up.

Need to see this "pic", JJ.

Just thinking. You could not make this stuff up if you tried. Just think what must be going around in Tupelo about this with school just a few weeks away. Wow Wee.

While serving in the legislature, Franks sexual exploits were notorious. What a hypocrite...

Oh where oh where has Sam Hall gone to, oh where, oh where can he be?

Affairs. Always fun, always. Especially when handled in such a dumb butt way politically (Franks). Did this man not have any advisers? "Sir, we don't think you should give any appearance of extortion, or throw stones. Just a thought, sir."

hmm - Drudge changes his font to red and blue letters every July 4 - how long are we going to get to enjoy the new title on this page? ;-)

@ KF 9:22--he's going back through his notes, all the way back to that March 6th meeting when there was a knock down, dragout fight over the last Franks' fiasco (going to have a secret meeting, get those votes in, get this person elected quickly, etc.) Remember? Eric Stringfellow had a pretty strong column about all of that. I thought you had written about that too.

What a great person you are to add Jamie Franks's name to the title of your site...

"One can only imagine what Democratic Party elders are thinking right now as Mr. Franks took what was a private feud between he and Mr. Scott and managed to drag the Mississippi Democratic Party through the mud with them. "

Hey, "correspondent." It's "...between HIM and Mr. Scott."

It is?

Why didn't this bonehead at least try to file it "under seal"? Oh, he wanted headlines. Well he got 'em.

11:56 AM - If it was between HIM and Mr. Scott, it would have been handled privately, not by bringing in the Party, the School Board and coercing individuals to cooperate in his "private" matter.

He WANTS the publicity or it would have been handled another way. Just wait until his skeletons come crawling out now.

Jamie Franks and Jackassery - Perfect Together!

He and Rudy could pass fro brothers.

Kingfish, that was so funny. Poor Rudy he is the brunt of all jokes! Now him and Elvis will think this is the Queen. Maybe one day they will figure out why they are targets.

nice rack

9:51..I agree, typical Junior Leaguer, I wonder if she sent a thank you note to Mr. Scott

No answer has been filed yet. Called the circuit clerk this morning.

Holy Shiznit! I haven't been keeping up with JJ very well, thus, the delayed comment.

What kind of dumba&& would purposely put it out in the media that he doesn't have what it takes to satisfy his wife--emotionally and SEXUALLY?

He needs some viagra, some serious therapy, and perhaps a stay in the Sate/Federal Pen to think about his role in treating his wife like shi% and for extortion and retailtion for political/personal reasons?

Jaimie Franks has always been a low life pos. Even in school, it runs in his family. He's a sorry person, father and obviously husband. True colors always come to light. He loves the attention. Other than that he's alright in my book. Think the world of him
