It was much too brief, but on point.

The Delta does deserve better, however, Marcy isn't the man to make things better...

yup, the delta does deserve better...I think that Mr. Marcy would be well served to investigate just where benny "fat cat" thompson made his millions of $$$$$ and make the facts public. I heard that when he went to washington he was flat broke...

Are they saying Thompson is a millionaire because of corruption or something? The salary of a congressman is over a hundred thousand a year and thompson has been there more than ten years? I would be more disappointed if whomever is elected was not handling his own monies right let alone the taxpayers. I don't agree with evrything thompson says and does but you can't fault the man for benefitting from the position as long as everthing is on the up and up. And besides, Mississippi gets more federal dollars than all the other states. Somebody is doing something right.

So what's with the wedding video at the end of this upload?

Jack said...

Can any of you actually explain why you hate Thompson so much?

10:41, do you know how many of our nation's politicians went to DC as middle class people and returned as millionaires? Hint: Thompson's not the first.
Not that that makes it OK, just making a point. Look at Trent Lott and Thad, too. Guess it's OK for them because they're Republicans.

6:32 - believe you ought to check your facts.

1) Bennie went to DC a millionaire. He was able to parlay his $14k/year salary as mayor, and his $29k/year (later raised to $32k/year) as supervisor, and during his first year in Congress filed a "statement of economic interest" showing a net worth of $1.5M. Guess he had a very good investment advisor (understand Robert Graham is using the same investment concept!)

Trent did go up middle class and came back a millionaire, and is cashing in big since leaving. But don't think that Thad has joined that millionaire club yet.

Yeah, I can respond to the 'why I don't like Bennie' retort: how about sending 14 reasonable, well thought-out emails asking for reasonable answers to my "representative" with nary the 1st form email; response of any kind; nary a damn peep from the man. Further, a Mississippi elected official that refuses to display the State flag in D.C. engenders less than respect from this proud MS voter. That's been my experience - how about yours?

Kingfish said...

Because Bennie pilfered Hinds County while on the board. Look at the jail. His friends made out like bandits while we pay the price. Then when it hit the fan, he let them off the hook with an easy settlement. He's opposed reasonable national security measures while he chaired the committee on HOmeland Security (search my blog for those votes). He voted against giving immunity to passengers who stopped terrorists on planes. There isn't a spending hike or tax hike he hasn't supported and if he opposed it, its because it wasn't enough for him. Then there is the fact he's a racist. Good luck getting any help from him and his office if you're white. Not going to happen. Most of the corrupt politicians in Hinds County are backed by Benny. They are his boys. Look at Doug and check his relationship. Jimmie Lewis was raised by him.

he's no different than the white good ole boys that ran Hinds 60 years ago. They are all the same. Just different colors and they hate each other. We just get put in the crossfire as they fire at each other, one from the past, one from the present.

I dislike Thompson because of his results and for reasons that are, on a daily basis, more real and apparent and relevant than those given by Kingfish. Who cares now about a jail Benny was associated with or what his position (as a lackey) was on national security?

All one has to do is look at his results in the District in order to form a reasonable opinion of his intent and his (lack of) success. He has not brought the first job to his district in twenty years. He's not collaborated with any industrial development groups in the Delta. He's not alligned himself with the job-providing efforts of any governor. He's concentrated on associations with HBCUs that could result in the naming of chairs and departments in his name and perhaps the naming of a few campus buildings. He's thrown annual fish fries but has never brought a bunch of job-providers together. He has shown himself to be anti-business through his alignment with union efforts in the district.

"he's no different than the white good ole boys that ran Hinds 60 years ago."

Slight difference - the city wasn't a third world cesspool when the white racists ran it.

His district was almost the poorest, least educated, and least healthy district in the US when he was first elected (Starr Country, TX may have been the absolute bottom). After 12 years, it still is. His constituents are too stupid to realize nothing has gotten better for them, although he has made out like a bandit personally.

As that eminent philosopher Charles Barkley has put it: "Black people have been voting for Democrats for 50 years, and they're still poor."

10:14 am...you are right about the make up in "the good old days".. city hall was run like a business and it ran well. the ignorant third world people were shut out...well, the fed's turned that well oiled machine over to a bunch of tards everything came to a grinding halt...how stupid can they be?

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.
