Two idiots.

Most of the time dignity and decorum are priorities for public discourse. We should expect as much from our elected leadership. But there are a few times when the voice of someone unrestrained by such order is necessary to remind us that there are those among us who are neglected. Right or wrong Kenneth does that.

6:17. Did that comment make you feel "smart"?

I'm torn. Suddenly I'm thinking about Jonathan Winters. Then I'm trying to imagine a group of businessmen arriving in the capital city, sitting down to discuss bringing a 400-employee industry to town. And there sits Kenneth, wearing his STOKES cap, about to convince these businessmen Jackson is your next best bet...He opens his folder, wipes his brow with a Holiday Inn towel and begins....

@ 7:39, you bring up a good point, but Stokes is who he is, and frankly, he is probably the best council person we have at this moment, and probably displays the most leadership of all of them.......I have a hard time taking Foote seriously as I glance over and see the image of him in a hardhat with a sledge......Jackson is in just a really bad place and I hate it, b/c, as an example, I see good people with small restaurants, and there is no doubt they are struggling with getting customers in the door b/c of the city...........(***shameless plug for "Siam Thai" in Fondren!! excellent pad thai***)

I like Stokes. Wish he would run for mayor.

Neither is an idiot. Rita Brent could make a better life for herself if she moved to LA. She’s got talent. Stokes learned well Aristotle’s first rule of rhetoric: know your audience.

Where can I get a Stokes cap?

@7:33. No. My two Ph.D’s and my multimillion dollar cryptocurrency holdings do that for me.

Like it or not...like him or not...wish him to be mayor or not...When industrial prospects consider a new location, interviews with local leadership are key, essential, always take place.

In multiple ways, the current mayor would nix any hope of a prospect choosing Jackson.

In multiple ways, a character-actor like stokes would nix any hope of a prospect choosing Jackson.

Sadly, neither of them or the past ten mayors of the city have been able to think beyond the boundaries of Jackson. All Grifters.

This was a very entertaining video. Their love for Jackson is unquestioned. I liked the fact that Stokes could get candid. He called out both sides of the aisle as he sees it. Oh yeah, the song was hilarious ! Thanks for posting this video Kingfish.

What is a hog headed lying bastard...hahahahahahaha

She mentions whether the next mayor needs to be white to clean up Jackson. Perfect answer from Kenny----it shouldn't matter about race. What you need is somebody that's not gonna be a thief.

Great interview.

love or hate Kenny, get over the idea that he should be Mayor. He has never run anything (something that could be said for most of the candidates running for Mayor this time, including one that many folks thinks is qualified because he has spent a career in government, but I digress). As has been noted before in these comments, Kenny's agenda has nothing to do with attracting any new businesses, much less any major employer, and if it did the image projected by him as one of the seven is bad enough - if he was d'mayer, there wouldn't be any meetings with prospects. They would turn and run as quickly as they could to get away.

He is entertaining, though, if that's what lights your day from your elected officials.

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.
