Walter sounds like a cry baby. If you don't like it, donor read it

Speaking of buses, wasn't MCDaniel asked by a reporter in fall 2013 or earlier if he was running for US Senate and he quibbled about it and then she photographed the big ole bus that had already been painted? Folks forget that? That is what the investigators call a clue. About "integrity."

These are the most miserable people in all of the land.

Racist dick

Walter is spot on, and you all know it.

Spot on? Hey Eichelberger your tattoo nails you.

I have always suspected that the average McDaniel supporter would be very comfortable at the local Klavern. Walter may be the Grand Kleegle

68,000 paid subscribers??? Thats about 60,000 to many.

yeah, ol' walter needs to lay off marshall....after all, marshall's just doing his job as an ad hoc member of the CL roundtable....

This letter is just like I would imagine a letter from a McDaniel follower would be, it's just not in crayon. It's just typical animosity against anything good for this state, mixed in with the most obvious tinge of racism. As a Jackson resident, who does not live far from the Fortification Street that he mentioned (the part that goes through my neighborhood is complete by the way), I am delighted by the ironic fact that voter turnout in this very county was instrumental in sending McDaniel back home (as soon as he gets off his crybaby tour).

Oh, and Mr. Lewis, you don't live here. Keep our name out of your mouth. I'm willing to bet a lot of money that my community is a better place to love than yours.

Have a nice life in the free state of jones (kept it lower case because some things don't deserve capitalization).

Oh, the irony...
We know the TPs and McDaniel don't like the Highway Fund or any federal funding and then they like to blame others for the consequences when funds to cities don't exist and the city budgets get wrecked.
And, they wonder why they are the subject of political cartoonists.

This place takes on more the qualities of the JFP echo chamber with each passing day. Sad.

Someone mentioned the highway funds. Why do the highway commissioners spend untold sums of their budget showing their mugs talking about littering? Is this where our highway funds need to be spent or is it a way for these commissioners to have the people of Mississippi pay for these veiled political ads?

We should send Mr. Lewis a copy of the video " Making Mississippi Happy"

I suspect Mr. Lewis is some poor old curmudgeon who grumbles about everything and is certain everyone is out to get him while the rest of us enjoy life and try to make Mississippi better.

Poor Mr. Lewis! How awful to be so angry and frightened that you'd write a nasty letter about a cartoonist!

The real life inspiration for Jeff Dunham's puppet revealed!!

People who complain about transportation funds are clueless. All of you in Rankin and Madison owe about half of your property value to the subsidized interstates, highways, boulevards, sewer systems, etc. that make it possible to live their and commute to good jobs. Nissan is where it is because of transportation and other subsidized infrastructure.

Half of Jones County's economy is based on the luck of having I-59 pass through between New Orleans and Birmingham and Atlanta. The other half is public support for Ellisville State School, JC Jr College, Medicare and Medicaid providing two-thirds of revenue for the regional hospital, and the public schools, county and city services. Everything else is just chickens and chicken shit. If you want to see what Jones County would look like without all the federal support go to Jasper County.

9:06, maybe Chuck Johnson's or Clayton Kelly's blogs would be more liking to your taste?

Seriously, one would have thought that this past election would have taught you Tea partiers that you will not get any of the results you want when you are so antagonistic towards every. single. freaking. thing. My suggestion to you is to lighten up, francis.

Leave Marshall alone. His cartoons are the only thing making this mess tolerable.

That letter itself sounds like a great idea for a cartoon.

One of the errors in the campaign was not looking up Federal highway funds and showing that McDaniel supported the road to his fave college JCJC (and employer of his Dad) built under Federal highway funds. It's there. The ultimate "I got mine but you don't deserve any" hypocrites are the Tea Party. Look up the number of "disabled" in Jones County and see if they don't receive Federal SSI, "crazy money" and all sorts of Federal tax dollars. A CDC site lists over 32,000 Jones Countians with disabilities. That's right: 32,000 out of 68,641 population. 47% Exactly what Romney described as "takers." Where's the Oppo Research on that? McDaniel stickers on all the cars subsidized by Medicare, Medicaid, SSI, and other HHW, Dept of Ed, Highway Funds, etc.

The good news is that Walter, based on his shaky signature, is 70 plus years old. He and his ilk will soon be dead and gone.

Walter was being so much more than kind. Marshall Ramsey has run out of talent well before the Cochran / McDaniels saga came along.

Clearly none of these McDaniel supporters enjoy the "company of another" or "warm touch of a woman as someone described in Chucky Johnson's case" on a regular basis. I've never seen such a sour angry people. Y'all need to workout all that anger and tension with hot sex a few times a week. Enjoy a glass of wine before and after. Maybe even a smoke here and there. Don't let Jesus take all the fun out of you. Damn.

Marshall is a dick. What's odd about that is he enjoy's that status. His 'work' could have been much more politically relevant had he focused on the last forty years of Cochran's shenanigans. But, after all, he's a contract or part time contributor and can't afford to piss off the CL elite intelligensia.

Cool. "If you don't like it, donor read it."

so....i guess fish don't know about the CL's round-table

Given some of the cartoons the Tea Party sends around the Internet that they think are humorous but rather are purely derogatory in nature, it's more than a little hypocritical to attack a legitimate political cartoonist who understands the definition of satire.

Satire holds a human vice or folly up to ridicule.

Depicting a human as an ape or attributing to a human other animalistic traits ,for example, is derogatory and has nothing to do with an individual's behavior or actions.

Humor makes fun of human traits that are shared. It's purpose is to have us laugh at ourselves. Attacking a race or religion by suggesting the worst behaviors are typical of the entire group is not humor, it's racism and demonization.

You just described George Carlin.

I guess Walter is finally ready to accept the fact the Mont Royal (North & South) will not be rebuilt after the fire. The Southern way of life, the heritage, the statesmen’s honor, the southern gentility, AND we know how to keep our blacks in line DAYS are long over. Maybe the South will not rise again. Walter, we just crowd a new BLACK MISS MISSISSIPPI. And she is not available to visit when you wish you could make your visit down to slave row. You Bigot.

I find it amusing to read the derogatory posts criticizing and ridiculing the Tea Party and Chris McDaniel "conservative" voters.

The most ironic point is that you believe we will vote for Thad Cochran in November after all this abuse.

All we have to do is sit this one out and let the Democrats pick the next U.S. Senator from Mississippi. You can bet this time around, there won't be any Dems voting for Thad Cochran.

You could have had a Republican... tisk tisk

A special THANKS to all of the butt-hurt bagger idiots who have decided to vote for Childers or to not vote at all in the November general election for US Senate representing the great state of Mississippi.

With Biden as the tiebreaker, 50-50 in the Senate will be as good as 55-45 for the next two years for President Obama. In addition, with any luck, the Koch boys on SCROTUS, Scalia and Thomas, will have a Payne Stewart flight the next time the Kochs flies them to one of their big-donor Kochsucker strategy meetings that they have attended in the past. Wow, allowing Obama to fill at least 2 seats on the Supremes in addition to Obama filling all the other fed court openings with hard-core librul judges would be a big win for the Teabag Party! And for us Democrats!

Thanks, baggers, for all the free stuff we'll be getting. At the same time, we'll be sure to reduce the amount of government appropriations in your bagger enclaves like Jones County, where HALF of the pitiful uneducated citizens claim disability.

Hmmm, I see some SS fraud convictions in your miserable future of guy of you "takers". In fact, we'll make sure that none of you "disabled" baggers even get a parking sticker or rear-view hang-tag without proper investigation and a complete physical. Y'all need the exercise, anyway, you bunch of old country-ass fat f*cks. Remember, Vote Democrat in November! Do it for Murica and Freedumb!!!

P.S. GOP insiders are leaking good news all around these days --- the latest is that they're already courting Romney to run again. Ain't life just grande being a bagger?
