5:54 - because these appointments are so much different than what 0bama did. Get real.

Personally, I like Mike. A real family man with lots of experience. He was a Federal Prosecuter, I think. Should be good for law and order.

I believe Mike would do a great job!

Congrats Mike. Good guy. Thank you Senator Cochran for using your clout to get us a federal appointment from Mississippi.

He's a douche

Licking boots

He could be a partner at a major firm but instead he's sucking tits at the public trough......on purpose.....to later groan on about what a public servant he has been.....

Jesus it's pathetic

Did you think they were going to appoint someone from mars instead?

For 5:54...Gee, ain't it sad he didn't pick a left-wing lunatic instead.

Might be worth noting that Trump is depriving Mississippi of one of its seats on the Fifth Circuit, replacing Judge Jolly with a Louisiana pick. (Philip Thomas has more at his blog.)

Great work by our two senators, letting that happen!

At the very least he's not a scumbag from Oxford, at best, he's going to go after the corruption in this state like a firestorm. There are literally billions to be recouped across numerous agencies, and too many needed indictments to count.

If you're a Republican don't fear a corruption indictment.

Don't be too sure. Could Hurst become corrupted? Yes. Is he a crusader that many in the corrupt "Republican" Oxford/Jackson inner circle call a former persecutor rather than prosecutor? Yes. He ain't scared of them MF's. By the way, who and where is "Chad" Lamar? If anyone's not likely to touch the Plantation, it's one of their own.

Mike Hurst was breve enough to call this state one of the nation's most corrupt. And it is. For anyone to suggest that Mike is part of that corrupt cabal entrenched establishment (comprised of low-life parasites from both parties who feed on government, our state's most lucrative industry) just doesn't know Mike. Here's a guy who worked for everything he got. He is the son of a log truck driver who put himself through George Washington University law by means of his own intelligence and determination. I hope he indeed does aspire to higher office one day, too. He caliber and character is far and away superior to some of our state's current leadership. The only down side I see is that Mississippi's most touched-up faux Republican, Lynn Fitch, could likely run for AG with the bespoke blessing of Jim Hood now that Mike will be US attorney and she has failed to secure any federal appointment In Washington. That's ironic, but watch out MS GOP, a Trojan horse lurks in your midst.

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.

Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. 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.
