The Return of the Hinds County Follies

 Hinds County Supervisor David L. Archie blasted Supervisor Credell Calhoun for hiring an interim county administrator..... right after Mr. Archie voted for the new county administrator.   Yes, you read that sentence correctly.

The Hinds County Board of Supervisors fired Interim County Administrator Scherie Prince and voted unanimously to hire former State Senator Kenny Wayne Jones of CMU fame at the March 1 Board meeting.  There was no discussion and the vote took less than a minute.  

However, this being the present edition of the Hinds County Board of Supervisors, quick does not mean peaceful.  Mr. Archie raised unholy hell about the vote after the vote.  He told Mr. Calhoun he didn't appreciate the Board President from bringing up the new hire for a vote without discussion. The word "disrespect" was used more than once. 

Of course, Mr. Archie must have forgotten he did not demand a discussion.  Mr. Calhoun would have been within his rights to gavel Mr. Archie down and move on to the next item on the agenda (as Robert Graham used to do to Credell's wife.) but he allowed the District 2 Supervisor to go on his rhetorical rampage.  

Just watch the video below.  You simply can not make this up. 

 

Kingfish note: Here is some advice for Mr. Archie. If you are really that aggrieved, then raise hell before the vote and actually vote against the motion.

Well, most politicians are dipshits, so what else did you expect?

No discussion and the vote took less than a minute. For the most important appointed position in the county. And with no non-public meetings taking place between supervisors prior to then? Ok, somebody needs to send an open records request for emails and texts.

it's a sad state of affairs in Hinds County when Graham the Legend is the smartest person in the room. God help us all.

I love how the CC kept calling him Kennywing.

Hinds Co/Jackson are doomed.

Fascinating how adding that 1.78 billion to Wicker’s restaurant bill, 90% of which isn’t covid relief, might give him pause on voting in the affirmative

These are the leaders that the people of Jackson elected. They are of them.
Sooo, what do you really expect?

David L Archie is as corrupt and fake as anybody can be. His son is just as bad or worse.

This should just about round-out the court-house gang. Archie, Graham, Kennywing...who am I leaving out?

For those of you who can't figure it out...At the polling place, a county gets what it deserves.

So sad we just can’t be civil! This is not the way adults act, we have to do better! Is this the example were are sending to our future leaders?

We are in the shit hole drain, waiting for the rats to eat us, if we don’t self destruct first! ( I don’t know where that came from, just me rambling)

The way we communicate with each other is just embarrassing!!!

Mr Archie, you stated you didn’t like the way he manhandled you! Dang it’s alleged you manhandled your wife! Mr Archie, you need help, bless your heart!!!

David Archie comes across as the Black Mamba of Hinds County/Jackson politics. Wants to be feared as his bite is called the "kiss of death".

Hinds' future leaders are out spinning donuts in the middle of the interstate, twerking on top of cars and otherwise shooting the place up. Pretty sure they aren't paying attention nor give a damn.

In case you missed it, David Archie is "vice president of this board".

this is what we got because of a primary challenge to tate reeves.

darrell mcquirter is running for alderman in clinton--i dont think hes getting back into hinds county politics.

lets hope a responsible democrat (like mcquirter) can rise up against archie.

Yes, but with Jackson and Hinds already lost causes the incremental post-primary downside was projected by Waller (and his backer Hosemann) to be minimal. When voters have already dug a big deep Democratic dysfunction hole another few inches or feet in depth means little to the view looking up.

Archie knows that his "game" is always to play the persecuted victim even when he is not. That's the profile of the modern black democrat and it does not matter if it looks stupid or not. Play the game.

Clinton voters were clueless when they lined up to vote for Waller or Reeves. Neither gives a shit about Clinton because that’s Gunn’s town. And they cost Hinds County the best supervisor they’ve had in a while.

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.
