FOOD FIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!

We got a good one here over at Folo. Alan of Y'allpolitics.com and Lotus get into it over Paul Gallo's radio show:

"Did any of y’all hear Gallo this morning?

My impression is that the folo crowd may be a little light on Paul Gallo listeners, but somebody just called to tell me that on this morning’s show Gallo supposedly said that an “unnamed U.S. Senator” is being indicted in Scruggs II. Did anybody here hear that directly? If so, how did he phrase the whole sentence? What else did he say?
Pretty skinny limb to crawl out on, isn’t it? My caller interprets “unnamed U.S. Senator” to be a currently-sitting one (therefore not Trent Lott, Joe Biden, or Hillary Clinton — but possibly John McCain, I guess). I’m not inclined to narrow it that much myself, but then I’m also not inclined to believe Gallo knows more than anyone else outside the case. Anyhow, just curious whether we have any folo ear-witnesses . ."

My caller didn’t hear the show either but was told about it by a close relative, who quoted “an unnamed U.S. Senator” as Gallo’s exact description of this purported indictee."

Email from Alan Lange:
“FYI. I talked with Gallo. This was not nearly the case. He was openly conjecturing about what would’ve happened had Lott’s favor to DeLaughter paid off in a federal judgeship.”
Thanks, Alan. I’m still hoping for a direct ear-witness . . ."

Jan,
I guess no good deed goes unpunished (yet again). You’d think I’d have learned by now in trying to help you. Though I didn’t expressly ask you not to post my email (as I certainly could’ve just posted the correction), I wrongly assumed you would exercise the discretion of an 8 year old and just fixed your error.
I have no real problem of you quoting me, but leave the context in tact.
Here’s the email . . .
“FYI. I talked with Gallo. This was not nearly the case. He was openly conjecturing about what would’ve happened had Lott’s favor to DeLaughter paid off in a federal judgeship.
My suggestion would be to kill the string, but thought you would at the very least want to correct it.
Alan”
Guess not."

Alan, I don’t understand this chip you’ve got about me, but what-evs."

Funny, Jan. I could say the same thing. Run my name in your search and EVERY REFERENCE from you about me is negative or just snotty in a real junior high school girl sort of way. And not in a “I disagree with you and be cool about it” tone. Tom and I don’t agree on a lot politically, but he’s always been straight up. Hence, no tension between us at all. In fact, quite the opposite. Candidly, I’d encourage him to seek out greener blogging pastures. I think you’d find out incredibly quick who has the real talent on your site. My sense is that he’s too good a guy to do that to you, but if he did, I’d predict about a 70%+ traffic fall off. But I digress.
You seem unable to disagree without being disagreable. I’ll let everyone else decide for themselves. I don’t know what gives. But after all of the time while you were getting started that I helped you and spent substantial time on the phone with you, helping you through tech snags, throwing you (lots of) traffic and exposure and helping you every way I knew how, the petty swipes and personal digs and just candidly the way you carry yourself toward me have just grown real old. That’s especially true because I don’t know the source of your bitterness. I don’t know if you do it to draw personal attention or extra traffic to make a buck, but it’s just old.
Trust me, I have now learned the lesson."

Alan's such a pussy. Who gives good hot damn if Lotus makes snide remarks. What does he expect? Does he not read her drivel? Two fools met and this "food fight" is the result.

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.
