The Cool Kids are back this week. Y'all Politics published its list of the "Top 50 Influential People in Mississippi" and even had a fancy shindig for the winners earlier this week. See the list. Not to be outdone, the Clarion-Ledger, actually Jimmie Gates published his list of the top politicos under the age of 35. Since it is hidden behind a paywall, here is the list.
Representative Jeremy Anderson
Rachel Canter, Executive Director of Mississippi First
Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba
Evan Alvarez, student. Um, student?
Representative Lataisha Jackson
Hattiesburg Mayor Toby Barker
Moss Point Mayor Mario King
Ocean Springs Mayor Shea Dobson
Representative Robert Foster
Representative Roun McNeal
Grant Callen, Executive Director of Empower Mississippi
Rebekah Staples, Contract policy analyst
Kathryn Rehner, Project Director for Mississippi Health Access Collaborative
Elliot George Flaggs, Lobbyist

Note: Dear Jimmie Gates: No John Morgan Hughes? You put a student on this last but not someone who is a lobbyist and has managed some successful campaigns?

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.

Trollfest '07
Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? 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. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
If you get tired come relax at the Fox News Tent. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag.

Jeramy Anderson. Hahahahahahahahahaha
His greatest accomplishment is getting the lighting just right on his 23rd selfie of the day.
where is Carlos the Clown???
Uh-oh...the Tot and his Sweet Tater are BOTH on the list (POW!-er coo-PEL!), as is (snicker) Hayes Dent, but Strom Cochran, Pheel and the Joshster didn't make the list. Well, just bless all their hearts...
It’s a shame he included Staples in that list. She is much better than this group of no names Gates came up with. 9 dems and 5 Republicans. Nice try.
Without Josh or Porter on the list, it's not credible.
I can't tell which list is worse...Nice morning laughs.
Hope our foreign enemies don't see this list in the CL. If they do, they might be more emboldened by the perceived weakness/softness of that generation.
I don't see any on this list who would storm the beaches of Normandy.
JJ, is Josh under 35? He may be just over the limit.
I can't believe Hugh Freeze didn't make the cut.
Hoe is josh a politico— I dont see where he as registered any clients with the SOS’ office.
@8:35 Best comment
Porter is even better. He only has a few registered clients and you know what? He represents them for free!
NORMANDY?!?! I don't see any that COULD storm the beaches of Pass Christian.
No but they might beach themselves on the beach.
Seriously - who are these people? They are the "power behind the throne" in Mississippi? Movers and shakers? The Captains and the Kings?
What a pathetic joke.
Porter? Really Kingfish? Porter has amassed a well deserved reputation of taking money from his clients and then delivering nothing, zilch, zero. They then dump him when their contract expires after being fleeced like a show-sheep.
Amazing how many of the "Kool Kids" are learning early how to "feed at the public trough". Isn't our conservative state suppose to be anti-government?
Read the column folks. UNDER 35. Pheel, Cochran, Josh, and Porter - don't qualify. Doesn't matter about their client list, filing, or whatever you want to bitch about. It's a stupid list compiled by the CL, but no more stupid than the commentators that want to include Porter.
Eliot George Flaggs is a lobbyist? Where's Bennett Malone's grandson?
Other than little Chucky Lumumba Jr I have never heard of any of these folks.
Porters mustache is under 35. Did it not qualify?
5:51 gets it right
