In election year, now ethics is a priority?
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 9/9/7 Here’s a little news flash for those on both sides of the political fence who suddenly want to talk seriously about ethics laws and the enforcement of them on Mississippi elected officials and candidates: Neither Democrats nor Republicans in the Legislature have had any recent interest in the topic that wasn’t…

Southwick: Judicial vote is overdue
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 9/9/7 If Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid believes in that body’s time-honored committee system, he will set an October vote for Jackson lawyer Leslie Southwick’s confirmation to the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals.

Hampton secondguesses Minor verdict/sentence
Minor case It is my opinion that there was too much of a political smell to this case. The extent the Republican Justice Department went to in going after a wealthy influential Democratic trial lawyer just seemed over the top. I’ve never seen anything like it. It was extraordinary. If we could only get that…

Kim WAAADE sidekick banned
Kamikaze this week was banned from WJNT by its management after callers brought the attention of Kamikaze’s lyrics to the station. Kamikaze, a la the Dixie Chicks, pitched the requisite hissy fit claiming that “Freedom of speech no longer exists in this country.” Apparently, Kamikaze has a little trouble understanding the concept of “freedom of…

Franks team leaks polling trying to make LG race appear close
In one of the oldest tricks in the book, the Franks campaign has pushed some favorable (paid) polling in the public domain via CottonMouth. This is to give the appearance that the race is much closer than it actually is. It is pretty surprising that this tactic is being deployed this early. Days before the…
