Jackson Jambalaya

Another good reason to leave Hinds County. Any fool that would vote for Stokes is just that - a fool. Stokes is an embarrassment to his entire race.

I guess all those years building the machine finally paid off for him. Now if he'd only study government...

Hey, Hey, Hey...I'm fat albert.

@1212....In reality, what happens at BOS will not impact most of the people in Hinds County. If you want to leave because of your own racism then do so, but don't blame it on the election of Stokes.

I thought I felt a tremor in the force.

Hey! How do you folks like your Democrat Party in Mississippi now?

Woo-hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

@12:48 --

I'm shocked that an apologist for the welfare-state sewer that is Jackson/Hinds County would level a charge of racism! Shocked! Even more so that you do so anonymously.

Is it racist to point out that Stokes can't craft a simple declarative sentence in the English language? Or that he substitutes "wif," "dis," and "dat" for "with," "this," and "that"?

Finally, what does your race radar tell you about YO Sheriff's campaign supporters telling people to vote solely on the issue of race? Was that "racist"?

I'll wait.

12:48, where did you study ninth grade civics? In government, the lawmakers who are closest to the people have the most impact on their lives. A huge portion of the laws and regulations that run our daily lives were passed by someone who you can get in your car and drive to see in under an hour.

Kenny and his fellow BOS are responsible for a budget of $119 million. That, in and of itself, should make you sick to your stomach.

Well, actually I'm feeling a little better about Kenny. The City's proposed budget is $317 million....sooooo....maybe he won't do as much damage with the County as I thought. Hold the pepto....

Kenny told the Free Press last week that he would resign from the City Council and only hold one office. I guess he will be running his wife, Lanita, for the Council seat.

"Stokes is an embarrassment to his entire race."

The human race, that is.

And she will win going away.

@1:10 I am shocked, just shocked that there would be another person trying to tear Jackson down. If someone you do not like wins an election most people just get over it, if that person is black in Hinds County it becomes "another execuse to move".

I have heard that Mr. Stokes has children at Harvard. Unless that's an urban legend, maybe we could tone it down a little.

From what Kingfish has exposed about the current Board of Supervisors, I will take Kenny Stokes any day. Next I hope to vote against Robert Graham.

I have heard that Mr. Stokes has children at Harvard.

Don't believe it. Anyone reputable can confirm this?

99.999999% certain Stokes' daughter either attends or recently graduated from Harvard Law.

The City of Jackson is finally getting rid of Stokes and soon he will be County wide. God help Hinds County............

Got mixed thoughts on this one. George is respected by many and is a gentleman, total opposite of Stokes but.........

there are all the crooked deals,the way he has run the county into the ground. He and Doug have done more damage over the years in a polite manner than Stokes could ever dream of doing at his worst.

I seem to remember when 'Tokes filed for bankruptcy a few years ago...He never did pay his creditors...as a matter of fact, he even gave a speech claiming to be proud of the fact...now that buffoon is in charge of county money?

Bankruptcy not his fault. Caused by "The Man".
