Jackson Jambalaya

More virtue signaling. First, it was masks, now it's vaccines. It's interesting that Andy could actually stick it to the feds by participating in the Medical Marijuana program but he refuses to because it takes work AND it's more complicated than a Commissioner's order. I'm sure he'll pray about it!

He is choking on the anti-vaxxer kool-aid. He has hitched his horse to the wrong wagon on many issues.

And your point?

Comrade Andy is at it again...

I can just imagine this commish sitting in an office somewhere toking on a big cigar and thinking what is the most boss hog thing I can do today.

Pappy O’Daniel lives.

"I'm sure he'll pray about it!"

Well 7:07 PM,
No doubt he's already prayed about it.

I'm liking Andy more and more every day.

I hope at his next presser, he makes a point to say something about Popeye's fried chicken. After all, Popeyes buys "yard bird" from our chicken farms.

That would trigger the sissy-men and many other pronoun obsessed
groups.

Al Haig’s corpse is smiling right now. I am in control! Haha. I bet Tate has steam coming out of his orifices. He got out trumped. It’s basically a race to the bottom in the state GOP at this point.

Seems like Cowboy is jumping the line.

Trying to be meaningful. Sad. Just run the fair.

You’ve got a friend in me! You’ve got a friend in me! Nope, that’s not Buzz Lightyear. It’s not Randy Newman. It’s Andy sitting outside the Trump Tower crooning at the top of his lungs. Look aaaat me! Looook at me!

Seriously, what else do you got to do as Ag Commish?

'The Hat' has a hard-on regarding medical marijuana and will do anything to signal his hesitation to be involved in any part of 'the program'. Problem is, as a state employee, in an elected position, he can't make all the rules, just some of them.

This is another of Feel Brant Giant F-UPS!

Put Gibson and Hyde in a paper bag, shake 'em up, pour 'em out on a hush-puppy table and you got nothin' but a big grin that smells like boot-leather.

What a total waste of time. Who was imposing vaccine mandates?

Next thing you know All Hat Gipson will be organizing a protective detail made up of rodeo clowns and carnies to help keep the order police the morality of the fairgrounds and those who use them.

8:39 PM Mistletoe Marketplace

Commissar Gipson's fatwah puts the Junior League of Jackson on notice that they can be replaced!

A flea market, mud boggin convention, catfish noodlin contest. Gipson will leave no opportunity for chest thumpin on the table! It's freedum like you'd expect.

9:23 PM, can anyone figure out their schedule and mask requirements? Some events require masks and some don't. They have segregated times for vaxxed and unvaxxed. I think Gipson's order will be a smack of reality to their shindig.

pan·der
/ˈpandər/
Learn to pronounce
verb
gratify or indulge (an immoral or distasteful desire, need, or habit or a person with such a desire, etc.).

If at first you begin to feel a pang (or twang) of impending irrelevance, do something stupid to call attention to yourself. If'n that don't work, come up with a solution to a problem that don't exist.

If 'The Hat' really wants to upset the okra-cart, get him to outlaw panhandling within a mile of the Mississippi Agriculture Museum.

reading comprehension eludes many of you. the commissioner is not against masks, nor is he against vaccines. he is against mandates that force you to wear a mask or force you to get the shot to participate in a free society. if you want to wear a mask and/or get the shot, then he's fine with that, as that's your personal healthcare decision. if you don't, then that is also fine with him, as that is also your personal healthcare decision.

expect mistletoe to move to the convention center. pissing off the junior league is political suicide

If so expect Mistletoe attendance to plummet.

Mistletoe should move to Rankin County like the Mississippi Wildlife Federation did. All Hat is all ego. He probably has his eyes on taking over Mistletoe from the JJL and creating his own show—Farm Women Ganza!!!

@7:02 - G'mornin' Commish!

It's is funny he did this after the fair, but before Mistletoe. Seems like a specific demographic being targeted.

7:02 say it louder for the people in the back. To the people advocating for letting people tell you what to do, you're the problem. Want the shot, take the shot. Don't want it, don't take it, but don't tell me what to do. I am vaccinated, but I am still for people to do what they choose.

Wait. So the JLJ has spent weeks defending their vax requirements now to have them totally wiped out?

Barney Fife in all his glory!

The virtue signalers in the Junior League requiring proof of vaccination to enter the Mistletoe ball are going to be big mad. The same Junior League that was allowing the members to volunteer for Mistletoe to be unvaccinated while requiring attendees to be vaccinated - crazy hypocrisy uh?

Am I the only one who read in article 2 that "Private promoters with pre-existing rental contracts are not prevented from maintaining their private event guidelines"? Sounds to me like he's doing just fine solving a problem that doesn't exist without effecting JLJ or Mistletoe. Use enough buzzwords like "mandate" and "forbid" and "vaccine" and you'll get a little attention afterall. Andy does know his demographic afterall.

If the JJL truly wanted to be downtown at Jackghanistan's pink elephant they would have already been there long ago.

I thought conservative Republicans believed in free enterprise. Reagan must be spinning in his grave.

@7:02 - G'mornin' Commish!
October 19, 2021 at 8:13 AM; 7:02 here, i appreciate the promotion and the raise that would come with it, however, i hate to disappoint you. i'm not the Commish. nor am i fanboy of his. i heard him speak at the anti vaccine mandate rally, so i've heard him first hand; he's anti vaccine mandate, not anti vaccine. there is a big difference. just trying to clarify. he can be criticized, but at least keep the criticism honest. and as for his hat; it looks better on his head than a mask on someone's face that's driving in a car all alone.

The Fair and Farm Animals Czar gets hisself crossways with the young ladies of the Junior League? Mississippi can't grow enough popcorn!

This dude is the white Kenny Stokes. Exact same playbook with different ignorant audiences.

Stock Buy Alert! Buy Midol! Whole lotta PMS on this board.

If you want to wear a mask and get vaxxed, do it. If you don't want to wear a mask and get vaxxed, don't do it.

But quit cramming your ideologies down our throats.

Comment of the week at 9:33 AM!

Oh my, messing with The Junior League is dangerous!

More than a few politicians have found that out in the past.

It's not just the old adage " If Momma ain't happy, then nobody's happy". Fact is more than a few Mississippi women actually control the money...it's theirs by inheritance.

It's not just Junior Leaguers but a surprising number of Republican women in general have used up their tolerance for the men and women who are anti-vax and gullible to right wing excesses and stupidity.

Not only do women vote in large numbers, they have even more control in about social acceptance.( For you guys, it means not being invited to those things that would help you cement important connections...there's a difference the superficial male contacts on golf courses or in bars or men's groups, and being close personal friends. Friends get preferential treatment.

I actually am surprised daily at the high rate of the GOP who have " had it", especially with anti-vaxxer nonsense and bald face lies and bad behavior. Even the women who are very anti-abortion, understand rape see that Texas took it too far.

Our children are being threatened and affected.

Us Southern women ( especially Momma's) don't bother to argue with boneheaded men when we have better ways to " win" an argument.

Andy, like McDanny boy, ain't that cute and we are tired of seeing the ones everyone despised in high school for good reason run things...it's not "Revenge of the Nerds", it's "Keystone Cops".

Now that you mention it, 9:33 a.m., they both like to wear ridiculous hats as well. You are on to something.

9:48 City, county, state, and federal ordinances meant to serve the greater good by codifying someone's ideology fill hundreds of thousands of pages. I presume you prefer to pick and choose which should be "crammed down our throats" as opposed to those that make good sense to YOU because they primarily apply to other people.

9:33 for the win! I agree totally.

Gipson proudly representing for the cult of stoopid!

10:27 I'm rather fond of the constitution.

To 10:27 "my body, my rights" only applies when you want to kill babies.

He has bigger things to do like possibly consider running for Govnah

I'm just curious as to how the FDA can "recommend" we get COVID boosters, but can't "recommend" actually approving the vaccine in the first place. Seems odd.

Gipson just wants people to decide for themselves whether to play along with the daily changing “science” or not. Sounds reasonable to me.

Purely political posturing. Did you read the last sentence?

"He is choking on the anti-vaxxer kool-aid. He has hitched his horse to the wrong wagon on many issues."
October 18, 2021 at 7:27 PM

Actually, Jim Jones used Flavor Aid, which was FORCIBLY administered to most of Jones' captives (and former followers). Few ingested it, voluntarily, on that fateful day. Little brainwashing or deluding was involved, at that point. Possibly, you should inform whoever's generating the shabby little "Talking Points" and insults you're being paid to post.

Andy Gipson's been a surprisingly GOOD administrator, and he's doing the right thing, here.

Oh, and BUCK FIDEN!

Then why have you done nothing but stood by while the globalists rape and murder the constitution for the last 100 years?

A couple of questions, 2:10:

Please define “globalist;”

Please identify the specific “globalists” to whom you refer in your post;

How can you “rape” or “murder” a non living object—is this your way of admitting that the Constitution is “a living document;”

What specific actions did any of the “globalists” take against the Constitution that you are complaining about;

How long have you been off your meds;

How is the internet in the mental facility at which (we hope) you are housed;

How often did you sniff glue and markers as a kid to end up the way that you are?

I look forward to your prompt response?

I read it to say the Junior League is exempt from this order.

The convention center is a better space anyway. Hopefully the National Guard is available for security.

I am grateful for the Jackson Junior League and the wonderful charity work they do.

I am also grateful that I do not live in the insane lifestyle that requires their approval for my livelihood or my happiness.

@3:28
You know damn well that Kingfish will censor any accurate response to you.
I will just recommend that you pick up a copy of “A History of Central Banking And The Enslavement of Mankind” from Barnes and Noble (Amazon banned it) if you are truly interested in learning the truth.

Comment of the month goes to 9:33 AM

Speaking of Mistletoe, while did KF never post the white girl wasted fight? Fear of repercussions from one’s daddy? He wants to post Jackassery, but just certain jackassery.

8:18
Kingfish wouldn’t be able to show his face at certain Metro dinner parties if he told the whole truth all the time.

" The convention center is a better space anyway "


If you think the convention center is a better venue, you must have lost your rabbit mind.

(Yes I am using a radio strong-man phrase).

4:49/2:10 yesterday:

I thanked you in advance for your prompt response, and I’m glad that I did. You certainly don’t disappoint when it comes to timeliness. I guess one could say that you always come early. Another way to look at it is that you spend way too much time commenting anonymously on blogs, but I’ll let you be the judge.

No, I’m not interested in reading your anti-Semitic propaganda that is so far afield that even for profit companies (Amazon) won’t sell it. Maybe I should take the opportunity to inform you that I’m part Jewish (you jerk).

In any event, your response was incomplete and renders my last three questions even more pressing. For easy reference, they are:

How long have you been off your meds;

How is the internet in the mental facility at which (we hope) you are housed;

How often did you sniff glue and markers as a kid to end up the way that you are?

Once again, I can’t wait to hear from you.

@5:37
How is someone “part Jewish”?
Either your mom is Jewish and you are Jewish.
Or your mom isn’t Jewish and you are just a mentally ill mutt like Jussie Smollett.

9:33 's critical thinking skills need honing

The same way you can be part Irish or part Russian.

Did that really have to be explained?

9:39, the fact that you don’t know how wrong you are proves how much of an outsider you are.

"Andy does know his demographic afterall. October 19, 2021 at 9:13 AM"

You just go right on calling him 'Andy'. The rest of us will continue to call him 'Barney'. If he were fond of 'the recipe', he would be a natural for 'Otis'.

Meanwhile: @ "How long have you been off your meds"...Can I assume you were asking that of half the posters commenting here?

One post is accurate...The one pointing out that the reason he wants nothing to do with the marijuana issue is because it would require work, and a good deal OF it. He's lazy. Wants to do nothing more than 'talk the talk', tipping his hat with that Ipana smile and issuing memos and orders. No work involved. He should have been a politic....WAIT!

PS: Tennis skirts, Twelve Dollar Wine, BMWs and Junior Leaguers are all over-rated. Pardon the redundancy.

All COVID-19 vaccines in the US are EUA-authorized. The is no FDA-approved vaccine available in the US. For the media, public health authorities, UMMC to say otherwise is a bald-faced lie. A condition of EUA is that the decision to receive or not must be voluntary. See the FDA "Vaccine Information Fact Sheet For Recipients And Caregivers About Comirnaty (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) And Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine To Prevent Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)".Revised August 23, 2021. More bullshit...the footnote on p.1 and p.2 state that "the licensed vaccine [Comirnaty] has the same formulation as the EUA-authorized vaccine [Pfizer-BioNTech] " while the following sentence says the two vaccines "are legally distinct with certain differences". The "same", yet "different". What a crock-o-shit. You would have to be an idiot allow this shit to be injected into your body.

Will some of you better tech guys place a Stokes hat on Gipson and post. I want to see that image.I wish I had a Stokes cap.

I hadn't really thought about this but the coments to this post did help me realize that the voters behins Stokes and the voters behind Gipson are more alike than different.

Low information voters all the way; they think Stokes and Gipson are giving them a ride in a fine chauffered limo but in reality they are really getting a ride on the short bus.
