C'mon Kingfish, "Submitted without comment." Really?

"Submitted right above and next to other candidate advertising" would be more appropriate.

Priester is clearly saying that no other city in Mississippi is at the center of transportation with the I-20/I-55 crossroads AND an airport. We are a connected hub of travel, and should use that to our advantage.

I personally think he's right. It's time to stop making excuses on why we can't succeed, and start looking at how to succeed with what we have.

Waaaaaaaah. This site has had fun with Harvey, had fun with John Horhn, had fun with Ms. Quinn, and had fun with Chokwe Senior.

He did say that? Listen again.

I know what he meant but its too good to pass up. Quit taking yourselves so seriously. At least he didn't say 57th state.

And just to please you, I took down the Yarber post. I will put it back up when there are some posts between the two.

That is what you wanted, right?

Actually he said I-55 and 220. That was funny too.

There are a few other teaching hospitals in Mississippi with Family Practice residency programs, although nothing the size of UMMC, of course.

He doesn't seem to understand the difference between I-20 and I-220 either.

I don't know why he's bragging about "kicking out" Watkins - at least Waykins got the King Edward rehabbed and running as a private business again after 30 - 40 years.

And bragging about the airport seems like terrible timing, as the election with just about coincide with the largest carrier in Mississippi abandoning "the only airport in Mississippi".

I flew out of New Orleans the last time I flew, and might be getting used to it in the future. Discount airlines offering lots of direct flights - two of us saved $600 for round-trips to Denver over Southwest's cheapest fares.

Priester rocks! Does anyone on this blog have a degree from Harvard. Didn't think so. Most of the Anonymous bloggers need to hook up with the BLOG " I hate everything". I'll be Cup's in Flowood tomorrow. I'll buy you a cup of coffee. Wear a blue shirt.

Ironic since even the airport moved to the suburbs.

Nobody is hating on Priester or bashing him. Making fun of him for a slip of the tongue, yes. It's called political satire and humor. Happens all the time to both parties so get over it.

What percent of voters in the upcoming election might read this blog? Let's have a poll. My guess is 3%.

Actually, technically, although it's surrounded on all sides by the city of Pearl, the airport is in Jackson, located at 100 International Dr, Jackson, MS 39208. Just saying.

Hawkins Field sez wtf?

Don't confuse a mailing address with a physical location there 6:22. Google maps are your friend. JAN is firmly planted in Rankin County.

Free the land!

he probably meant the only "international" airport in the state

He's obviously not aware that we have two additional international airports, both on the Coast: Stennis International & Gulfport-Biloxi International.

Irrelevant though, . . . I'm waiting for Octavian's commercials.

Trent Lott International Airport in Jackson County.

7:23 is a dumbass. The city of Jackson owns the airport property that is firmly planted in Rankin County. Knowledge is your friend.
