Update: Judge Louis Guirola, Jr asked the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals to assign a judge to the case.
U.S. District Judge Henry Wingate recused himself from the lawsuit True the Vote et al v. Secretary of State Dibbert Hosemann, the Republican Party of Mississippi et al today. Judge Wingate cited his long friendship with Senator Thad Cochran and the fact that Senator Cochran nominated him to his position. The order is posted below.
Kingfish note: So who does True the Vote want for a judge? Judge Dan Jordan, III will probably not take the case. Judge Barbour? He's out for obvious reasons. That leaves Lee and Reeves. Keep in mind Reeves ruled against the Hinds County Republican Party last year in a redistricting lawsuit. Could they assign it to Starrett? Stay tuned.

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.

Trollfest '07
Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee?

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. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.

A senior status judge, like Bramlette maybe?
I think any judge will do, personally.
Reeves is in bed with the tea party isn't he? I think he has been on tv with them. that rules him out.
What judge is " not" politically tied????
Southern District Federal Court Judge LOUIS GUIROLA, JR. has sent the True the Vote Case to the 5th Circuit for appointment of a judge.
If being nominated upon Cochran's recommendation matters, and I don't think it does, is there a judge in the Southern District who can hear the case? Reeves, maybe?
Either Judge Judy or Joe Brown would be about right for Chris.
You got the wrong Reeves. In more ways that you know. And all Federal judges are at least passed by US Senators for nomination and are nominated by at least one formally. So, since it might be the case that some folks are unusually sensitive and throw out all sorts of "conspiracy" accusations, this ball is going to get tossed around for a while. Which doesn't help them, but, would be pretty par for a "shoot yourself in the foot" "cut your nose off to spite your face" agenda in the first place. Unless they just want to keep it in the papers and fund raise and drag things out. Hard to believe that would ever happen.
Judge Reeves and the Tea Party have nothing to do with one another. Perhaps you're thinking of John Reeves. BIG DIFFERENCE, in so many ways, between those two. The similarities end at the last name.
You are right there 2:01. John Reeves is the super conservative the Tea Baggers call a RINO because he won't dance a jig to their complete and crazy agenda
They are so easy to despise.
They are so easy to despise.
Pity your pathetic soul. No doubt you also find it easy to hate.
As are you, 2:11
1:35 I think they believe the attention from it is a positive. I saw where John Pittman tweeted out the GOP answer to the TRO where Wallace blew them to bits, and they had a few Tea Party people "re-tweet" that, including one named in the suit! Another Twitter user called this out; I found it highly amusing as well.
It's like they expect nobody to actually read it. Which... seems about right. Just spread a bunch of lies via Twitter and get the brainless ones to latch on. Excellent theory.
Question- how long can they stay in this suit before they can't pull out? I'm wanting to see some sanctions.
Thank you 2:11. Finally some sensible comments about the Baggers.
It's judicial Hot Potato.
If True the Vote is truly a 501(c)(3) and therefore not supporting a candidate in this b/s of a case, then why would it matter who appointed the Judge?
Obvious answer - True the Vote is nothing but a shill for the Tea Party crazies and for Candidate McDaniel.
Hope they end up with Reeves - would serve them right for filing such crap
There is no such thing as a hot potato in federal court for life-time appointed judges. This case will be over shortly after a judge assumes duties. Any judge.
More babble from the RINOs who don't believe in due process or constitutional rights or the American system of justice.
"First, we silence all with whom we disagree, especially those who cause our assholes to tighten up." (me)
Their not trying to convict Thad for all those indecent things that he did with animals, are they?
HITCH BRITCH---
ARE YOU KIDDING?
NO ONE IS INTERESTED IN SILENCING YOU CRAZY MCDANIEL FOLKS OR THE MS TEA PARTY.
THE MORE YOU CARRY ON AND EXPOSE YOURSELVES, THE LESS CREDIBILITY YOU HAVE HERE IN MS OR ANYWHERE ELSE ON THE PLANET.
BRING IT ON-KEEP IT UP-CAN'T WAIT TILL YOU GET YOUR DAY IN COURT!
WE'LL ALL CONTINUE WATCHING YOU DELUSIONAL SELF-DESTRUCTION. IT'S LIKE GAWKING AT A CAR WRECK-ONE REALLY DOESN'T WANT TO LOOK, BUT JUST CAN'T HELP IT.
THE ONLY PAINFUL ASPECT TO THIS IS HOW YOUR EFFORTS REINFORCE THE NATIONAL MEDIA'S HYPER-FOCUS ON STEREOTYPING MISSISSIPPIANS IN A NEGATIVE MANNER.
ENJOY YOUR 15 MINUTES OF FAME!
Yes 4:45....the Tea Party members are RINO's. Thank you for pointing this out (finally).
No disrespect for Wingate but he won't rule. Things sit on his desk forever. The 5th Circuit has all but spanked his rear and nothing happens. The guy was classmates in law school with Bill and Hillary Clinton and I think they are friends. He could have been objective in this case. I bet he can't tell you the last time he talked with Cochran and I'd up that bet by saying no communication has occurred in the past 10 years...
Wingate is a very nice man and when he works he is a good judge.
1:35 Feaux News has been doing this for years. A study confirmed more people who watched no news where better informed than those who watch Feaux News.
Sorry 5:45, but it's not the Tea Party folks who are in favor of stifling justice and who want to shut those up with whom they are in disagreement. It's YOU. But you already knew that.
I applaud Judge Wingate's decision to recuse himself. In my opinion his honor would have ruled fairly and according to law if he heard the case, but for the reasons given by him some could have believed that there was the appearance of bias or impropriety, no matter how he ruled.
1:55AM, I believe that you hit the nail right on the head with your comment. This issue will be settled in a court of law and not by the rants of those who have no respect for the legal rights of others. If you like Chris McDaniel or dislike him, he has the absolute right to his day in court.
A study confirmed more people who watched no news where better informed than those who watch Feaux News.
Post a link.
"1:35 Feaux News has been doing this for years. A study confirmed more people who watched no news where better informed than those who watch Feaux News. "
And another study confirmed that sophisticated, erudite people who got their information from Fox News were much more likely to know that the correct spelling for the French word meaning "false" is "faux".
Epic fail, poster. KF has nicely asked us to refrain from commenting on examples of glaring intellectual deficiency by using the epithet "dumbass".
So I won't.
When is Judge Wingate going to rule on the Jackson AEO? I believe the lawsuit was filed in 2003.
The Judge on "Laugh In" sounds more than qualified.
