Hehehehe

I don't know if I should enjoy this one or not:

George S. Smith (Dem) 2305 45.571%
Kenneth I. Stokes (Dem) 2753 54.429%
Total 5058

At least Kenny doesn't know how to use a bluetooth. Or email. or twitter. or Facebook. or a treadmill.

Don't look now but I think Doug is in a runoff. Now THIS will be interesting.

Now all we need is Dot Benford to join the Supervisors at some point...

Should this be viewed by Stokes as a promotion or just (more) perpetual job security?

Stokes views it as a meal ticket.

Get ready for all the county roads to be renamed.

Smith is an idiot. He did nothing to stop Graham's running roughshod over the Hinds Emergency Mgmt Dept and Graham's repugnant overreach regarding siren maintenance and the Byram radios.

Then, as board president, Smith played the absolute buffoon -- as fully exposed by JJ -- in trying to cover up the malfeasance, incompetence and nepotism.

So it doesn't hurt to rotate a different idiot like Stokes into the job to see if the results improve however slight the improvement may be. I applaud the Byram voters who voted for Stokes in an effort to do something, anything, in order to get rid of Smith.

BTW, Charles Barbour's "everybody else was doing it" excuse (on Kim Wade's program Monday afternoon) to explain away his many votes for interest rate swaps while a Hinds Sup earned Longwitz my vote yesterday.

I was undecided until that very moment when, instead of admitting his mistake, Barbour wimped out. Nope, sorry Charlie.

The upcoming BOS meetings will be a "bootiful" thing.

Free BA-BA-Q comin up! Heaven help us all. Does he get to keep the city council position?

Anonymous said...

10:35 I sure hope not. I know everyone hates to see him on the BOS, but I hope that means he's off the Jackson CC!!!

Let's hope there's no loophole...

Someone said last night that Stokes thinks he can serve in both positions. Hope this can be clarified.

KF, knew you would enjoy this: "Democratic Party officials discovered well into the count Tuesday night that some votes apparently were counted twice"

Shadowfax said...

Wasn't there a gentleman in Canton a few years ago holding down as many as three or four different high paid county positions?

Will Stokes get a plaque from the city?

Will Ben Allen move into Stokes ward and run for that seat?

Will Stokes submit a letter to Harvey ending with, "My work here is did"?

Stokes cant serve in two "legislative" bodies in the state at the same time. Both the City Council and the BOS are considered legislative bodies.

hot dog! now they will start re naming all the county streets, roads, bridges, culverts, ditches, fire plugs, intersections, creeks, rivers, buildings, trees......

lol @ 2:18 might want to throw in some stop signs and red lights too!

It's rebranding time! Jackson will become Medgarton, county seat of Evers County. That will erase all that perception of crime!

Shadowfax said...

Will Metro Medgarton be in competion with Bennie's Deltaland for a contract with Jefcoat Fence for a eight hundred thousand acre fence surrounding the kingdom? And, whose moat will be the deepest?

A stepping stone for Kenny on the way to replace Benny. Remember when Benny Thompson was on the BOS and he won the congressional seat he said he was going to Washington to "bring home the bacon".

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.

Trollfest '07

Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
