Lumumba Inc. Tries to Expand

 The race to replace former State Representative Deborah Gibbs will be um, rather interesting.  Mrs. Gibbs was unkind enough to become a Hinds County Circuit Judge, thus creating the vacancy.  The candidates for HD# 72 are: 

Synarus Green (Bennie Thompson Protege)

Justice Gibbs (Son of Robert and Judge Gibbs)

Ailien Stingley

Rukia Lumumba

Yes, Sista Rukia is running for the Legislature.  It's the perfect job for her as she gets to rant and rave to her heart's content without having to take responsibility for anything.  Hell, this race sounds like a monster movie.  JJ just might support her.  If she wins, she will be great for business not to mention, it might be fun watching her and the House leadership go at it.  

The best part of her candidacy is if she wins, Jackson can fire Quincy once and forever.  Why spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a lobbyist when the Mayor can just have his sister lobby for the city since that is part of her official duties.  This might work.  

Stay tuned.

I guess this family just wants to see how much damage they can cause Jackson and the state of Mississippi. Virtually every town in this state knows how to run a water system except the Capitol city run by this family.

Yes. Quincy needs to go. He is really bad.

10:02 Southaven would like a word about running a water system.. Oh yeah.. lol

Seriously, 10:02. If Canton can make money on its water system, any idiot can do it.

I don't mind being judged by my father, but I know some outstanding people for whom that would be unfair.
Most children learn from their parents failures as well as their successes.
And KF certainly remembers the woman he wrote extensively about who learned the social graces and had the pleasing looks of her family and ended up in prison. Sociopaths often come from "good" and "successful" families.
Any time we paint a group by the bad behavior of one or a few, we look foolish to those with common sense and adequate education ( self or formal).

Gibbs is the only one in this race without dirty hands in some aspect of the mess in Jackson.

Gibbs and Rukia have a thing in common: running on family money and name. At least Rukia has a platform.

I don't blame her. The morons will elect her.

It's like some bizarre, masochistic-loyalty blinds feeble minded folks to their own detriment.

I'm old enough to remember when voting based solely on skin tone was a bad thing. Seems like it is the single most important factor now.

Talent, brains and skills not required. What a time to be alive!

10:49 If we are being honest, this could be said for a majority of the Mississippi legislature. The large majority suck pretty badly but keep getting elected.

Easy now…. The mayor of canton has zero nada zilch to do with cmu. CMU is what keeps the city of Canton ie: the mayors office and its subsidiaries in business.

Amazes me these City and County Governments hire lobbyists when they all know their state House and Senate members and it’s their job to look after their interests. I heard a lobbyist once from DC say if you know a US REP or Senator you don’t need us. I even know a federal elected official asked by a local govt entity what they thought about hiring a lobbyist. The federal official told them to not waste their money cause that what they were for.

I am so happy to now live over 500 miles from those people. They are dumb, crazy and criminal.

I didn't know Robert and Debra even had a son, but if Justice is like them, he has my support.

Gibbs has broad-based community backing. Rukia has a crime syndicate. Green is just trying to be Bennie.

10:49 Why do single minded twits keep harping on this skin-tone thing as if that is the determining factor just because the candidates are all black. These voters vote PARTY loyalty. PARTY If all the Republican candidates were white does that mean the voters are voting "skin-tone"? This is a Democrat stronghold pure and simple. Give race a rest will you?

Anonymous said...

At least Rukia and Green are real Democrats.

Gibbs/Lumumba runoff…. Just like Trump vs. Biden.. no one wants it, please god no. But here we are folks!

10:49 for the win!

What are Ms. Rukia's credentials? Community organizer? Rabble rouser? Alas, I repeat myself.

The effectiveness of the supposed Lumumba political machine is overrated and doesn't extend into Ridgeland.

Gibbs wasn't educated in Jackson and is out of touch with the district.

Get your popcorn ready, folks. I hope they have a debate.

11:05 is cute enough to think a super qualified White Dem would get a single black vote against a unqualified black Dem candidate in Jackson.

Its so adorable, I cannot even be angry at the naivete.

I'm not sure why everyone is so disrespectful toward Mayor Lumumba and his kin.

There is plenty of clean drinking water in so many other places than Jackson. Since when is it the city's job to take care of the city?

Potholes make driving more fun. Imagine a boring morning commute without having to dodge sinkholes and vagrants covered in their own waste.

And as for taking a walk in the city at night (or even during the day), is it really reasonable for citizens of the Capitol City to expect not to be gunned down by the disadvantaged and misunderstood victims of White America?

I prefer my delicious CS's burger with a side order of possibly getting murdered by a youthful gang of aspiring hip hop artists and NBA stars.


VOTE LUMUMBA!!!

Water System 101:
1. Build a water plant
2. Provide clean water to customers
3. Bill for volume of water used
4. Collect bills owed for water used
5. Cut off water to non-payment
6. Maintain water plant to ensure future water supply

It’s not rocket science for anyone with an elementary education, but Jackson leadership sure effs it up!

Canton made enough money through CMU to share with various CMU commissioners. They paid a little back, but still need to be looked at and prosecuted. But, as I understand it, several commissioners were “politically” connected, Even so far as related to a long time deceased sheriff.

How much scrutiny can Rukia's multiple nonprofits withstand? When will Poser Pickett run for office or would it be a pay cut?

Anonymous said...

I know Justice Gibbs, and he's a nice young man. He's young and inexperienced but a good person who can learn. And he's got great parents who would/could be good advisers when necessary. He won't have an "agenda" and would do what he thinks is best for Jackson and the State. He'll get my vote.

Y'all residents of Ridgeland - enjoy your new Marxist representative.

@12:16 - exactly! Ten's of thousands of towns and cities across America somehow manage to do it. And have been for over 100 years.

I think Green pulls this one off because Gibbs and Rukia will destroy one another.

Anonymous said...

The people are better off with Rukia. She will be a non-factor in the legislature. She can't anything or anyone. If will be fun to watch her throw fit after fit. She will have to match wits with people that are a lot smarter than her and won't cater to her.

NEWSFLASH! THIS IS A GOOD THING!!!

"Gibbs wasn't educated in Jackson"

Meaning he was taught to read in school?

This is kind of off-topic, but politician + law degree does not equal qualified for circuit judge.

Anonymous said...

10:29 Not so fast. For many years Canton Municipal Utilities was operated by honest, competent men. However, that day is gone and has been for the past 12-15 years. CMU Board members, appointed by the grossly over-paid Board of Aldermen, are either totally unqualified or are outright crooks or both. The current CMU Board will run it into the ground in the not to distant future.

I’m in the House and would love to Ruk’s ego get crushed when she walks through the Chamber ! You won’t hear a word out of her.

I found her home on Google street view and it has burglar bars on all of the windows. I guess that's for the "perception" of crime. Right?

3:25 pm - that's my point. Even a bunch of incompetent crooks can run a water system. Anybody but Chokwe.

Rukia is already out campaigning. She’s got Green’s frat and Gibbs’s ex girlfriend talking for her. This so messy already!

Anonymous said...

Green was a former Hattiesburg Police Officer and one of the best! Very helpful young gentleman to all, and especially the elderly! He had a great impact on our Aunts (Ella Craft) Foster kids.

Officer Green is the real deal and was a great Community Police Officer in Hattiesburg. He can’t and will not be bought. A young man beyond reproach.

@11:46 PM No, she lives off I-220/Hanging Moss, but District 72 is in both Jackistan and Ridgeland.

If Green is as moral and kind as 6:24 says, then he does not stand a chance of winning in Jackson.

Anonymous said...

Aside from this, I've not seen any campaigning or heard of this race at all. These candidates must not really want it. Knock on doors and give speeches!

Anonymous said...

Campaigning would involve the candidate explaining their plan for improvements.
Discussing their ideals and viewpoints, and maybe even a detailed plan of action if elected.

That is not happening here, 2:08. Nor is it necessary.

They will be elected on name recognition or who the preacher tells them to vote for.

@6:24. Sounds great. Just please tell me there’s no kinship to Tommy.

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.

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.
