The Madison County Journal printed a rather colorful editorial about Madison County Board of Supervisors President Gerald Steen yesterday:
Madison County’s self-appointed Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khamenei Gerald Steen, would love the peasantry to believe that every decree he issues is for the glorious betterment of the realm. He projects an image of unimpeachable character, dismissing any whisper of dissent as “fake news” devoid of substance.
Calculated and meticulous, the Supreme Leader usually plays 3D chess while the rest of the board plays Go Fish. He is a master of the “surprise” road plan—items conveniently left off the agenda only to be rushed to approval by the loyal majority he holds in the palm of his hand.
Those who dare defy the Supreme Leader, like Madison Mayor Mary Hawkins Butler, find themselves swiftly scolded and corrected.
The Supreme Leader knows the agenda before it’s written. He knows the votes before they are cast. And he certainly knows who will be enriched when the gavel falls....
That's just the opening. Read the rest of the editorial here.

Interesting double standard you have. Would you ever publish anything mocking Jews in such a way? Of course not because you are unapologetic hypocrit!

Steen is as crooked as a dog's hind leg.
It's easy to be magnanimous when someone knows they're going to get their way.
But when push comes to shove, that's when one's character is revealed.
Pretty great art work. But petty content.
This seems really greasy.
Go take a cruise missile up your ass.
I don't really have an opinion about this guy, but it's depressing that a publication would vomit out what is clearly an AI generated image of a lazy, vague metaphor, accompanied by copy that reads like it was written by a high school student (e.g., a person is "calculating"; a plan is "calculated").
Steen is the worst.
"Would you ever publish anything mocking Jews in such a way?"
Why is it anything directed at a theocratic tyrant, who happens to be muslim, is perceived as an attacked on muslims in general?
And to answer your question, KF would absolutely "mock" someone who is jewish. But I don't think he would do it BECAUSE they are jewish. That's a huge distinction.
While we're asking questions, maybe you can tell me why muslim political/religious leaders demand to be held beyond criticism.
12:05, Has KF sinned against God by "mocking" the Ayatollah, punishable as a crime in Iran?
If the answer to that question is "yes," then that is why we have the First Amendment, and that's probably why it's at the top of the list of the Bill of Rights.
POS he just has not been caught someone is going to turn on him
Seems pretty accurate to me.
Steen. What a snake. BTW, this is what newspapers of old used to do when they brought the corrupt and powerful (often the same) to account.
But but Mr. Steen says the case is closed. Is it?
" cruise missile up your ass."
Gawd ... that's funny !
Watching Mayor McGee, and Mayor Morrison suck up Gerald Steen made me want to puke. Next time you see MeGee and Morrison some give them some Kleenex to wipe of the brown shit from their noses.
Steen is as corrupt as they come. Self-interest is always priority number one. Purposely screwing citizens of Madison The City is his second priority. It will be a great day for Madison County when he is replaced.
Steen clutching his prayer beads of pork-barrel cash, sneering ‘fake news’ at anyone who notices the fix is in. Every ‘surprise’ vote magically enriches his buddies while he plays the pious public servant. Madison deserves supervisors, not a self-anointed ayatollah running a racket. Next election needs regime change, baby!
I would hate to know that so many people felt this way about me.
The day Gerald Steen is gone there needs to be a ticker tape parade down Highland Colony Parkway.
8:54 with the post of the day!
8:54: "The day Gerald Steen is gone there needs to be a ticker tape parade down Highland Colony Parkway."
12:05 - The cartoon isn’t making fun of Muslims, you dumb shit. It’s making fun of Steen.
Stupid groyper.
@8:45 - It's got to be harder for him to live with himself than to realize so many think about him this way. But, every time he gets twisted around his own mental guilt, he changes churches and calms down.
Baptist voters will go along with anything as long as you bring them donuts.
7:08 PM is on the right path. Ridgeland Mayor Gene McGee is a real problem as he could have kept Democrat Steen out of office. How many apartments were built on McGee’s watch? And look at what it’s done to Ridgeland.
And pro-speed trapper anti-civil liberties Gluckstadt Mayor Walter Morrison is like Steen and McGee; another ____ e___r RINO little man, sucking at the public trough.
Let’s make sure we spread the word as much as possible that McGee, Morrison and Steen are RINO Democrats teaming up with the other Democrats to harm the City of Madison and the area between Gluckstadt and Canton.
The Democrat cancer that literally destroyed the City of Jackson is spreading in Madison County via these 3 RINO’s…so where’s the next move?
Haters are going to hate. You all can pound the sand at his feet.
7:25...Hi Gerald, click an ad while you are here.
"You all can pound the sand at his feet."
Surprising that you suggest doing anything at Steen's feet other than worshipping.
I am no fan of Gene McGee but to mention him as an enabler of Gerald Steen without mentioning Mary Hawkins is a joke. Mayor Mary ran the Board of Supervisors for years until Gerald Steen was elected and new boundaries were drawn. He was elected after Mary had her hand picked and contracted Supervisors move Highland Colony paving funds from the Ridgeland district to Madison so Madison would be finished first. Steen at that time said it would never happen again, and it won’t. Baxter and Brannon are Mary’s little soldiers and if they want to keep their positions they will do what she says. They couldn’t think for themselves if an idea hit them in the head. They both have claimed they wanted to work with Steen, just like Banks and Griffin do and that is simply not true. Mary would never allow them to help Ridgeland. If anyone believes the voters in Ridgeland are going to vote Steen out of office, they are nuts. He has only done to Mary what she did to Ridgeland for years and now she can’t. I don’t know if Steen has done all of the things he is accused of, but I doubt it. What I do believe is the Madison Trio has created many of the accusations. Kind of funny when one’s actions come from behind and bite you in the ass.
That is an ignorant comment. Before Steen joined the board, the Queen had one vote: D.I. Smith. The others were John Bell Crosby, Karl Banks, Tim Johnson, and Paul Griffin. yeah, she told them what to do.
Wrong, Crosby and Johnson were lock step with her and DI could not say no despite his tough talk. It cost him his spot. You think Brannon and Baxter could get elected with ou her?
5:17 PM you are INCORRECT. Tim Johnson became a RINO that teamed up with Karl Banks and Paul Griffin long before RINO Gerald Steen came along.
But, Republicans aren’t called the stupid party for no reason so you are likely correct about the Ridgeland voters leaving Gerald Steen in office, just like they have with “Mr. he was for the apartments before he was against them” Mayor Gene McGee.
Their too shortsighted (dumb) to understand that turning Madison County over to Democrats Steen, Banks and Griffin like they have is putting the county on the same path Kane Ditto put Jackson on many years ago.
Speaking of stupid Republican voters, you can thank the idiot fool tools that wanted somebody else’s prime development land to be their little nature preserve, and when the vote didn’t go their way, they got “inherited wealth” Jim Harreld to run and beat David Bishop in the Republican primary…..only to lose to Democrat Karl Banks in the general (Banks picked up votes due to the insanity of Harreld and his “everybody wants to be the last one in” supporters not wanting any further development). Then later on, RINO Gerald Steen helped Democrat Banks get his district just right so he will never be defeated again.
Like the CMU group (that allowed sewage to run into a lake where children swim on multiple occasions for extended periods) is filled ineptness, Madison County Democrats Steen, Banks and Griffin are filling the county with their incompetent pals that can’t even correctly fill a pothole.
Mary has always determined the Dist 1 Supervisor. She touted the excellent qualities of John Bell Crosby (Kroger Mgr) and talked him into running. She got the entire district turned against the incumbent and got John Bell elected. In less than a year, John Bell bit into the apple offered by Banks, Steen and Griffin and *POOF* he was corrupted. Mary then got Crosby defeated by Jones and has now gotten the spouse of the city attorney in the Supervisor spot. So, yes, she controls the position and is out of favor with Magee and Steen and most everybody else.
None of this diminishes the reality that Gerald Steen is half turd and half slime-ball.
11:37 sounds like Mary Derangement Syndrome but does get the Gerald Steen turd slimeball right.
RINO Ridgeland Mayor Gene McGee is the real snake Ridgeland’s voters keep electing. How many apartment units were built on McGee’s watch since being elected mayor almost 4 decades ago? And after he approved the permits for his then developer buddies, McGee’s actions were so egregious they made national news with the conservative Wall Street Journal writing about his “government abuse.”
RINO Ridgeland Mayor Gene McGee is far worse than Democrats Karl Banks and Paul Griffin (and likely tool RINO Gerald Steen), because McGee knows better. And we need to make absolutely certain everyone is fully aware that the Democrat Cancer spreading through Madison County, is largely due to RINO Gene McGee and his lapdog tool RINO Gerald Steen.
When Magee's spandex britches cause enough discomfort and he retires, Steen is his heir-apparent and this has been known for years.
When the Taggart-D.I.Smith stink got Smith elected to the Madison County Board, it was that stink that allowed Steen to send Smith to the house in defeat. But D.I. wound up being seated in Ridgeland so, after Magee's retirement, D.I. will once again be confronted by the Devil Incarnate (Steen).
Next up, Karl Banks moves to a Ridgeland apartment and is elected to City Council.
12:50 PM: this is news to some of us but what’s almost certain is Democrats, assisted by RINO’s Gerald Steen and Gene McGee, are in the process of slowly but surely destroying Madison County. And it sounds like the Ridgeland voters are ill-informed of this path we are on.
Someone within the Republican Party needs to step the ___ up and educate the Ridgeland voters in order to get these two ousted before it’s too late.
@7:01 - So, reminding ourselves that the mayor of Madison controls the District 1 Supervisor seat signals "Mary Derangement Syndrome"?
The proper way to rebuke that claim would be to point to someone in the past 40 years she has not put in that seat.
@4:39 the "Mary Derangement Syndrome" seemed an appropriate assessment since Mary Hawkins controlling one supervisor DOES NOT NEGATE the fact that RINO Steen and DEMOCRATS Banks & Griffin are now totally in control of Madison County.
In other words, WHO CARES about Mary and her one supervisor while Madison County residents face disaster via the spreading Democrat cancer due to RINO Gene McGee supporting RINO Gerald Steen that’s teaming up with Madison County Democrats Karl Banks and Paul Griffin. Think about this:
The Democrat controlled City of Canton Public Schools graduation rate was 57% not that long ago. This disastrous graduation rate allegedly “triggered state attention and accountability measures.”
Via the Magnolia Tribune: Canton Democrat Aldermen Andrew Grant and Canton Democrat Alderman Eric Gilkey pled guilty to conspiracy to commit bribery with none other than former Madison County Engineer Rudy Warnock. Canton Municipal Utilities Commissioner Cleve Anderson was convicted of similar charges as the two Canton Aldermen Grant and Gilkey.
As previously mention herein, Democrat controlled Canton Municipal Utilities allowed sewage to run into an 835 acre lake (where children regularly swim) on multiple occasions for extended periods of time. Total incompetence!
RINO Steen and Democrats Banks and Griffin hired as Madison County Board Attorney HARD CORE DEMOCRAT Mike Espy…..that could not possibly have this Board Attorney position without RINO Gerald Steen’s vote, and Gerald Steen could not possibly be a supervisor without RINO Gene McGee’s support.
Yea this is the same Mike Espy that in 1994 resigned as Agriculture Secretary amid allegations that he accepted gifts from companies regulated by said Agriculture Department.
This is the same Democrat Mike Espy that around 2010-2011 allegedly admitted to taking $750,000.00 in lobbying fees from the country Ivory Coast led by Laurent Gbagbo that faced allegations of murder, rape, and torture of political opponents and later charged with crimes against humanity at the International Criminal Court.
This is the same Democrat Mike Espy that while hanging out with now convicts former Madison County Engineer Rudy Warnock and former Canton Aldermen Andrew Grant and Eric Gilkey, had a pair of boots purchased for him by Rudy Warnock. Here’s a Mike Espy quote via WLBT: “I called Rudy, said the boots [didn’t] fit, would you give me your credit card number, so I could credit the sale back to his card, and I did.”
Under the heading of incompetence and via JJ: Madison County’s comptroller Na’Son White was tricked into sending more than $2.7 million of county funds to scammers, then the Madison County Board of Supervisors, led by RINO Steen and Democrats Banks and Griffin gave Na’Son White a _______ raise.
The above is just some what you get with Democrats. And RINO Gene McGee’s lapdog tool RINO Gerald Steen is teaming up with Democrats, i.e. giving Banks and Griffin what they want in exchange for Ridgeland getting what it wants. And due to Ridgeland’s pure unadulterated greed, Democrats like Mike Espy take over the Board Attorney position, and incompetent Democrats are put in control of more and more county positions.
Democrats destroy everything. Look at the corruption in Jackson with the former Mayor and the current DA under indictment. Look at the corruption in Canton with 2 former aldermen and a former Canton Municipal Utilities Commissioner being convicted of bribery. Gerald Steen and Gene McGee together are in my opinion 100% to blame because Democrats CANNOT control Madison County without them. So, the Ridgeland voters had better wake up and stop giving a ____ about Mary and her damned one supervisor! Rid yourselves of the Mary Derangement Syndrome in order to save Madison County. Otherwise, be prepared because as sure as the sun came up this morning corrupt and incompetent Democrats WILL DESTROY MADISON COUNTY! It’s what they do.
Sounds like Magee Derangement Disorder to me. Except the Mary analysis is accurate and can't be refuted.
The Ridgeland Elite are pre-occupied with the monthly task of moving money around to make the house note, setting tennis-times and getting the Land Rover detailed.
As I scroll, I keep stopping at this link and am amazed how much that caricature looks exactly like Ole Gerald. Kingfish makes my day on a regular basis!
Nothing at all petty about the corruption of elected officials raping and pillaging the county strongbox.
Good Lort, Goober! Take a breath and eat some prunes. All I said was she controls the only seat she can control via the votes she controls in Madison, MS. If she could control more seats she would. But, it's a farkin' fact that she controls ONE and that does not signify a derangement. Remember, Goober, 3 = 5.
