"In a democracy people get the government they deserve"

Benjamin Franklin (or someone equally wise)

I believe he said, "I didn't sign anything."

So who did Stokes pay? I thought the bus company was the only business that was owed money in this deal. And who told him he could use county money to charter a bus and then said he couldn't use the money. He of course uses the "they" word often. He is worse than Jello when it comes to getting a firm answer.

Interesting that when the news story first broke last year that Mr. Stokes said the bus company would be paid and that he was asking some churches to help pay the bill. Now, over one year later he vehemently denies signing anything. In his words, "The lies must stop".

One wonders with his proposal to hire an outside investigative team to look into the funding of the emergency operations fund and the dispute over how long the money will last, that he has not hired someone to investigate this and prove his innocence with the bus bill. No wait, they might find him guilty of not being entirely honest. "The lies must stop".

How long are the citizens of Hinds county and Jackson going to tolerate this type of buffoonery from the married duo? Someone please find him a tailor or tell him to grow longer arms.

Given that the signature is not in crayon, I'm inclined to believe Kennuff on this one.

Look, dat moneys went in what we calls de 'flexibility fund'. It can be use for all sorts of purpose. Dis partica-lahr time it were use to offset the hat fund which have run dry. You peepuls needs to get out my face! You ain't nuthin' but racimist comin' up in here axin' me dis.

Is there no law enforcement in this state??

Does he really speak like that?

He kinda looks like a Mon Chi Chi and I wonder where that $1000 dollars in that check went. Hhmmmm Maybe it went to buy his wife some new hats or dental work to cover up that gap in her teeth

11:43; Worse. Listen to the video.

So he solicited money from 2 churches for one thing, then gave the money to something/someone else? I believe that is fraud.

I would hate to see how much Sir Kenneth would sweat in July or August. The temp on the day of the video was what, 40 degrees.

I guess the stress of leadership is just too difficult for a mere mortal like me to comprehend.

And shadowfax, is "woods" (as in Ms Woods) more than one syllable? I am pretty sure that "peepuls" has at least four or five.

I promise that if Kenneth's constituents see this video and hear the details, his approval rating will go up. His supporters think just like he does. They are cut from the same cloth. That is why the man is unbeatable at the polls.

Sad but true.

Every time I see him mop his face with that hanky I'm expecting him to hold up a trumpet and break into Hello Dolly!

Yesterday, I noted that he lied during the "stop the lies" speech. Looks like 3 or 4 more folks have picked up on that.

HAR! @ 2:28!

Here's my question. If the signature isn't his, why hasn't someone been arrested for forgery? Are there other county documents available to compare signatures?

Trust me that ain't CLOSE to his sig. Not close.

Figured it was secretary or wife.

Point being, Stokes doesn't give a flyin' crap. He knows if the company sues him, the matter will handled in Jackson. And those who decide the outcome will be his 'peers'.

Plan 'B', if he gets sued, is to prevail on the church community to cook some chicken and raise some money to donate to him and the matter will be settled without him paying a personal dime. And since this whole thing is obviously 'racist', he will have no trouble raising the money to save himself.

Resume' building 101.

Please, cut Sir Stokes a break! He is my mentor and his wife is a hottie. Like Kenny, I am also a visionary. Below, I have outlined a 3-point plan to bring Mississippi out of its doldrums:

1). Buffoonery: demand a drone strike on at least three metro car dealerships. However, a reprieve will be granted to those who cease their cornball comedic routines. Plus a full year of penance cleaning toilets at the local animal shelter will be required. Note, no reprieve will be granted to "Crazy Mike" and team. Immediate ground intervention is necessary.

2). Marketing: Mississippi has the best looking women in the U.S. Capitalize on this by selling their used undergarments on the internet at an enormous markup. (Common practice in Japan.) If the price is reasonable, I may even purchase a few.

3). Blues Heritage: kidnap black males and hold them hostage in the Delta. Beat, starve, and force them to pick cotton seven days a week. Within six months, the cottage blues industry will be transmogrified into an entertainment megalith. American Idiot may even audition in Jackson.

My doctor told me on Friday that I may be certifiable. I agree. I hold multiple certifications.

um, I had no idea 'tokes could even write ????

Only in Jackson or Hinds County could Kenneth Stokes be elected to public office. There are people out there who want to send Jokes like Stokes to Rankin and Madison County. Tell you what......why don't we send Kenny Wyne Jones, Furr Smith and the Blackmonds down to Hinds County and you will have public entertainment 365 days a year. The bus company will never get its day in court. Judge Wise will put the case off for 100 years.

Maybe Mrs. Stokes should have taken her hat and fanned him because the more he lied, the worse he sweated,

This behavior continues to be unbelievable. I can't stand to watch the local news because of things like this.

Did this ever get resolved?
