SOS mid-afternoon update

Latest from Secretary of State on election day:

"No significant issues are being reported.

“Our Agency sent observers to thirty-two (32) counties. After checking with staff positioned across the State, light turnout is being reported,” says Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann. “A few hours of voting remain and I am hopeful Mississippians will head to the polls and cast a ballot for President.”

The turnout was extraordinarily light in my precinct which is a Republican precinct.

I was the only one voting and no one was coming in or going out. The total had not reached 100 as yet and it was nearing lunchtime.

I also noticed the names ahead of me were entirely male.

Pete, Bill...if you're reading... you might want to check out who voted as the women I've subsequently spoken with today are going to stay home in November as well. They won't vote FOR Obama, but they'd rather have him by default than risk having " the Pope in charge of contraception". And, don't be surprised at the women you know who " forgot" or had " something come up" so they didn't get around to voting.

Those are some incredibly stupid women.

4:59 I totally agree. I'm a woman and can't believe anyone would believe that crap.

Stupid women.

The women don't like that Santorum's wife lived with an abortion doctor out of wedlock and that Gingrich's wife is " the other woman".

The women have SPOKEN when it comes to positions that effectively end birth control and in vitro.

The women get that Rush has 4 wives and no children and couldn't get laid if he were broke.

The women aren't stupid.

The women ...the older ones anyway...watched Arsenic and Old Lace so dial it back guys or don't eat dinner.

yes...well...it's the " stupid women" attitude that will get you.

Men actually believe they can control women.

This is hilarioius. A whisper campaign on a blog. hey, I hear this, and everyone is saying it, oh my, women wont vote and here's all the details, shhhh, oh my....

Get a grip.

I wouldn't overrate it, but a perfectly intelligent and conservative (tho not terribly political) woman I work with has said she's turned off by all the GOP candidates because of the contraception issue.

Those of us who follow politics tend to forget what a small minority we are. Voters tend to decide based on single issues or general impressions, no matter how "stupid" they sound to us.

Anonymous said...

Anyone, female or male, that says they will leave the country to Obama for the next four years because they believe that contraception will somehow be made unavailable, is indeed incredibly stupid.

Anderson said...

Case in point:

Only about three-in-ten voters (29 percent) can identify Rick Santorum as a Catholic. This includes 32 percent of Republican and Republican-leaning voters and 27 percent of Democrats and Democratic-leaners.

... 1:17, it's not about whether "contraception will be made unavailable," and if that's all you took away from the kerfuffle, maybe it's you who is "indeed incredibly stupid."

But by all means, keep insulting your potential voters.

Gee Anderson, since I was clearly referencing the comment 4:44 made about some Republican women not voting I'm not sure just which kerfuffle you are talking about. I didn't see anything in that post about Santorum, other than the reference to the Pope. Please point me to the line that has his name in it.
I take it you wouldn't have voted for John Kennedy, since he was Catholic, right? I guess that makes you a religious bigot.
Little children, such as yourself, certainly do enjoy hearing yourself speak.

2:48 pm JFK made it crystal clear that he wasn't going to impose his Catholic beliefs on our Nation.

Santorum's positions and statements make clear he will adhere to his Catholic faith politically as well as personally. Which means he will be a great President for those who share his religious beliefs and a horror for those who do not.

I wish evangelicals, Catholics, and fundamentalists would get the memo that not all Christians and certainly not all Americans share their interpretations of The Bible. That is WHY there are many denominations and WHY Martin Luther split from the Catholic Church. There is NOT this catholic ( the lower case letter is on purpose) view of Christianity beyond those narrow agreements reached centuries ago by the Nicene Councils.

Come down off your self-righteous stump and provide the links statements that support what you say about Santorum.

Anderson said...

Santorum favors the states' being able to outlaw birth control.

Anonymous said...

Anderson,
Nowhere in that article did he say that he favored outlawing birth control. What he clearly said was that the states had the right to pass whatever they wanted to.
Try again, little fella.

Anderson said...

Where did I say Santorum favors outlawing birth control?

Try again, little fella.

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.

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.
