Ouch! Marshall nails it again.

Marshall Ramsey was on his A game today in this cartoon published in the Clarion-Ledger.




If you were buried under a blizzard for the last few days, here is the recap.

State Representative John Moore (R- Gold Coast), resigned his position Friday afternoon, citing health reasons.  The problem is, no one bought the story since the press release was issued at 5 PM on a Friday when everything was closed due to snow.  Politicos also knew that he had attended a legislative conference across the country two weeks ago-something one would not do if suffering from ill-health and expecting to resign from the house.

It turns out the Chairman of the House Education Committee had a sexual harassment problem.  Legislative sources confirmed to this website that the House leadership received complaints about Mr. Moore.  The leadership consulted an attorney and informed Mr. Moore an investigation would commence.  Mr. Moore resigned.  Thus the matter is now between John Moore and his accusers.  The House can no longer take action against the former Representative since he is no longer a member of the legislature.

John is very smart and thought he had figured a way of not making the news with these allegations---he got fooled.

I predict that many many many more such allegations will surface. I can remember that the republican candidate (RP) was doing the same things back in the sixties with several very young female employees at the republican headquarters. This harassment of young females is a common thing among our elected officials. I suggest every woman that has been taken advantage of by an elected official...SPEAK UP!!!! Tell on these sorry Bastards. If anyone sends their child to Washington or Jackson to be a page, you have to be a total POS.

JM (which stands for John Moore) ain't the only sleaze bag in the Capitol

1:09,

Tell me 1:09 does that makes it right just because there was no law covering sexual harassment? Several young women's lives were ruined by promises that were made be guys like RP, JM, and many others over the years.

What a stupid comment that you just made.

Sorry about this situation with JM, but glad to see that this Speaker is willing to deal with this situation in a solid, and forceful, manner. Unlike previous Speaker, Billy McCoy. When a much more serious issue arose during his term invloving two members and two (underage male) pages, the Speaker acknowledged the problem. He called the two members into his office, slapped them on the wrist, and told them don't do it again. Probably added something like, 'at least don't get caught'.

One of the two is still sitting on his fat behind as a member of the chamber; the other got defeated at the next election. Nothing ever made it to an Ethics Committee, or involved good legal advice.

There are so many situations like you described with Pages that never get brought up unless the victim tells. The power of the positions they were elected to gives them the right to do anything they can get by with---I would be willing to bet that 80% of our Washington officials have sexually harassed someone and 90% of our local officials have sexually harassed someone. I'll go back to the sixties again---I know of one young woman that cut her wrist because one of our representatives made promises he had no intention of keeping. This still goes on everyday---the Bastards need to go to jail.

I remember when Musgrove was chasing tale when he was governor. One of his assistants I believe. The press hid it. They knew it , but never reported it. Contrast that to how they covered Fordice's affair. The CL stalked him trying to get a picture.

This crap happens every single day at the Capitol. I hope that those who are harassed will come out and speak up. I have never seen a bigger collection of scum in my life. From “Mr. I was drunk on cough syrup” all the way down the line, these creeps need to be ousted.

Kingfish's radar is working overtime for those posts that don't quite fit his narrative.

I don't know much about this subject but I do know that
Marshall Ramsey is a tool. Ramsey was good a few years ago but he is really weak now.

If Ramsey nailed this one then it is a matter of the blind hog finding an acorn.

Agree 100% with 2:12. His political leanings have skewed his subject matter.

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.
