Food Fight!!

Well, the Board of Aldermen for the City of Madison passed a resolution calling for Madison County District 2 Supervisor Tim Johnson to resign and Mayor Mary Hawkins-Butler signed it. Haley Westbrook of Fox40 interviewed several parties in this little dispute and posted some interviews online that were more in-depth than seen in the typical broadcast. I wish other stations in town would follow this example and start posting more .pdf's and unedited interviews but that's just me.

You sure have a burr in your saddle for Johnson Kingfish.

A burr in saddle? Yep, along with 90,000 other Madison Countians! You haven't seen a thing! Just wait until the recall petition drive kicks off... "We the People" will have it completed in no time after their rehearsal/warm up getting over 130,000 signatures on petitions for voter ID! They are chomping at the bits!

Now with the Gaming Commission Hearing Officer findings; wonder if Johnson is going to be made to pay back all his improper charity bingo payments?

Tim is about over the edge here and Queen Mary is cool as a cucumber. Looks as if Tim is feeling the pressure where are his good buddies Mr. Engineer Warnock and Mr. Landowner Banks? Just imagine what all else is going on while the buddies are of playing and having fun.....

Madison the City and Mayor Mary are not the only challenges Tim Johnson is facing. Last week was bad for TIM!

Now, his BINGO gravy train is about to be shut down... The Gaming Commission Hearing Officer has rendered opinion upholding the decision to not renew the bingo gaming license http://www.clarionledger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=20102270339

The other shoe will fall Tuesday, March 2, 2010, 9AM, when the Secretary of State conducts their hearing regarding the FAIM charity operation.

Thank you; Thank you very much!

The Citizens of Madison County should be enraged about the spending of the $50,000,000 Bond Issue. We were told it was going to be used for one thing and it is going to something totally different. Also why did Tim Johnson want to raise our taxes in 2008? What did they do with that money? Now they have given Rudy Warnock more design work? If we didn't have enough money to complete Reunion then where are they going to come up with with $48,000,000 for the Hoy Rd. Project.
Tim and Rudy's Pipe Dreams are going to break the bank in Madison County

Burr in the saddle for Tim? Nah, he just makes it too easy.

Tell me again why everyone is moving to Madison and Rankin county and how government is so much better there?

Read the Irby stuff for Rankin and this stuff and you begin to go " hmmm"

Just a different flavor of the same food.

Why stop with Tim. What about "Mr. Landowner" Karl Banks that wants to build a water park next to "HIS LAND"???

Anonymous said...

Is Carl Banks a supervisor? If he is then my God the entire Board needs to be investigated.

Anonymous said...

I am still not sure if I believe one or the other. What do the other players like the other 4 board supervisors have to say and the board of alderman that sign this resolution who Mr. Johnson say he is friends with? May if they can clear the air I feel my way with the rest.

According to Mayor Butler, 2/3 of Madison County's population resides in Madison and 1/3 of the county's population resides in Ridgeland.

Did everyone move out of Canton overnight?

Anonymous said...

About 2/3's of Tim Johnson's Distict (2) is in the City of Madison and about 1/3 is in the City of Ridgeland.

Anonymous said...

Did Madison pass Ridgeland in population? Even if so, they have to be very close to one another. There's no way that Madison holds 66% of the population of the county, maybe 33%.

This 3:49 post: "According to Mayor Butler, 2/3 of Madison County's population resides in Madison and 1/3 of the county's population resides in Ridgeland. Did everyone move out of Canton overnight?" IS INCORRECT.

About 2/3's of Tim Johnson's Distict (2) is in the City of Madison and about 1/3 is in the City of Ridgeland.

Before the recent annexation Ridgeland had about 3800 more in population than Madison. Don't know how they stack up now.

Ms Madison said...

If I have to believe Mary or Tim, I'm going with Tim. That woman has thrown many people under the bus. Poor Tim looks all shook up. He shouldn't be surprised at his current position. It was simply his turn to be used.

@ 5:25 PM-Of course you would believe Elvis most of his heart throbbing fans are still looking for him even 2 this day.I hate to burst your bubble but let me tell how this story ends--- "Elvis finally OD on Pain Killer and peanut butter sandwiches."

The bus didn't kill him. That's all I am saying. He did it to himself. I see no remorse for bamboozling residents of Madison County. I look at a mans character not the image that shadows him. Mayor Mary mentioned if she was wrong, she would apologize to both Warnock & Johnson the innocent person offers himself as a sacrifice for the good of others. Mr. Johnson has only attached the person Mayor Mary which makes me think that he doesn't want to deal with the issue at hand. Which validates the old statement: "Every guilty man is his own hangman"

Anonymous said...

So has Mary apologized to all of Madison for backing Warnock against Dick Hall? Was she wrong about that?

Or was she merely backing the only fool who thought, at the time, that she is hot?

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.
