Think the headline is over the top? Read this passage from the Clarion-Ledger earlier this month:
Six years after a federal judge banned Noxubee County Democratic Executive Chairman Ike Brown and his associates from having a role in running elections in the county, Brown is back as chairman.
“Nothing has changed; I’m back as head of the Noxubee County Democratic Executive Committee,” Brown said last week...
Brown said last week he wants people to know he is back. And he is making no apologies.
In case you didn't get the point, this video will spell it out for you:
Just in case you really didn't get the point, here is a letter he wrote to the newspaper in 2007:
Ruling lets 'progressive' Democrats lead
The current debate about U.S. District Judge W. Allen Pepper's ruling on primaries is about a power transfer.
For years, Mississippi had been controlled by Dixiecrats in a one-party structure called Democrats; blacks and poor whites were not allowed to vote. In 1965, the Voting Rights Act empowered the two groups to vote. In 1964, the Goldwater revolution began the rise of the modern-day Republican Party. It is controlled by former Dixiecrats.
The present day Democratic Party, of which I am a charter and the only remaining member still on the board, was controlled by "Blue Dog" Democrats with help from Dixiecrat cross-overs.
This is now being brought to an end.
As a result of Judge Pepper's ruling, progressive Democrats will control all statewide and local Democratic nominations; they constitute 85 percent of the party base. "Blue Dogs" like Eric Clark and Jim Hood, Sheriff Malcolm McMillin, Barbara Dunn, Jack Gordon, etc., have won their last Democratic nomination,
What is the basis for this claim is a surging black population, mainly on the eastern side of the state. In DeSoto County, minority population has increased 300 percent; south Madison has doubled; Rankin, Lee, Lowndes, Obtibbeha, Lauderdale, Harrison counties, etc., all have seen huge jumps in minority population.
What's needed is a voter registration, voter runout drive to bring 500,000 African Americans to the polls; there are more than 850,000 eligible African-American voters in Mississippi - roughly 41 percent of the eligible electorate.
As for voter ID, bring it on in the primary; we can handle it. Republicans may find it to be a double-edged sword.
Finally. in many rural counties like Noxubee, Kemper, Winston, Pike, etc., voters will have to start giving state and national Democrats some support or get out of local races entirely. Think about that.

Welcome back! That Judge is a joke...anything to supress the minority vote! 1st order of business, investigate any of this puke's past rulings! #stillthinktheywonthecivilwar!!!
I love these little girly hats these guys wear. And those those matching shirt and pant outfits with it that look like PJ's.
I hope someone will clip that comment from the gubment employee and mail it to her Human Resources office and supervisor. Reminds me of the Homeland Security supervisor who was running the black racist website and was only suspended with pay.
And she has no clue she owes her very job to (unpublished) affirmative action quotas.
Apparently one can "Analyze Programs" for Veterans Affairs without a basic command of the English language:
"Every1 of these non-factors on the bandwagon 2 throw daggers @ Obama about Syria were know where 2 be found when George Dumbya paid taxpayers' $ 2 flee Bin Ladens from country on 9/11/01 & diverted a fictious war on Hussein w/no proof of weapons of mass destruction! God chose a true leader, not Repukes or TeaBaggers who can't even agree on shiggidy! #racismstill amuck!USAJokes!"
Casandra Young's Facebook Page, yesterday.
She sounds like a perfect candidate for a high level position within Chuckie's new administration.

She has the "right" to express her opinion, but not on my dime. Our tax money is paying for Cassandra Young · Program Analyst at U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs computer.
Bitch to your reps about such. Not that they will do anything,
Better yet; whoever has the tech ability should report it (with proof) to the VA IT Department, HR Department, her supervisor, her manager with a copy to HER. Date and time stamps are, of course, essential. However, on or off the job conduct on social media can getchu disciplined or fired.
Next point: Can't wait to see photos of Ike in camo and beret at next cupcoming election polling places in his area.
We all have one person to thanks for Ike Brown - and that person is former Lt. Governor Eddie Briggs. When good ole Eddie was a state senator, he introduced a bill which would restore the suffarage of Ike Brown. Without this act, Ike Brown never could vote again. Thanks EDDIE BRIGGS!
