Well well well! Now we know why the sudden endorsement! I guarantee you that Othor Cain was promised a job as well. From the look of Archie’s job title, they are just making up titles now.

Ole Gut bucket…Corinthian Sanders called him out a plenty on social media and radio for being in Lumumba’s pocket.

This guy can’t do this job. He has a resentment and disdain of white voters and citizens of the city of Jackson. He will not service ward 1 at all I can assure you this is Chokwe paying those people back. He’s a racist and hateful person

no shame. so what is this like a 45 day gig? Servis! pull the records and see how much this pays. Hohrndawg will fire him in his first official act of business.

High four baby!

Addicted to the grift. Archie gets the shakes when he's off of it. This little jerb right here will get him through to the next 15 minutes of shame.

Supposedly he started right after the election. We just found out about it.

Can you say QUID PRO QUO? I know you can. Can you also say NO SHOW JOB?

Anonymous said...

Does he have a job otherwise. What does he do normally. Is he a preacher or something?

Kingfish said...

He is famous for being famous.

See Archie at Char a lot..one time he was bellowing about getting a contract "because we're a minority"...I wanted to ask him in what city?

Anonymous said...

His racial animus perhaps exceeds that of Shok-Way.

The one month job he was given equates to the value of his support in the election.

Meanwhile, Chokwe won't appoint anyone to the two seats open on the Civil Service Commission and they haven't been able to meet for maybe three months.

Would love a list of all employees and salary! This is too funny

Archie the Berserker, a danger to City buildings and furnishings.

A racist appoints a racist.

Probably the cheapest payoff for Lumumba. Only has to pay him for a month (if that) before he probably gets the boot. If Horhn isn't smart enough to fire him it will show that he's on the take as well.

Just another one of Jackson's "NO SHOW" city jobs.

Not really much of a “payoff” considering the pay is probably below the poverty line. I hope he has other irons in the fire.

WIth help like this maybe it's better they have no show jobs rather than showing up and making things even worse.

I imagine the next Mayor will vacate many of the current hires like this one.

Anonymous said...

Whose "staff" is he going to assist?

Antard is Going to Jail said...

Makes sense. Lumumba was a no-show Mayor.

What fool would give and or take a job in an Administration that lost an election! Now you see why this asshole lost the election! Archie I have trucks coming in from Mexico that need a driver pays fast good money. I know you’re desperate! $50,000 per load!!! If caught might have to serve 260 months in federal prison. Oh I forgot you talk too damn much and you will be banging on the steering wheel.

Did he get a nice new fancy city SUV?

Maybe Archie will open a brothel when he looses his "no show" city job, but he will have to run it by hand initially.

Anonymous said...

"Loses," not "looses." My typo, my bad.

Anonymous said...

Hope there isn't a slip and trip injury lawsuit with plaintiff Archie for the city to defend!

Or a wrongful dismissal...

Anonymous said...

So the city counsel voted unanimously for a hiring freeze yesterday. Guess that cockblocks Archie and that new public works guy.

How much is Chowke's "commission?" Asking for Rukia.

A competent 'correspondent' might use his knowledge and mechanisms to find out what these two 'jobs' pay.

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.
