Ladies and gentlemen, it's official. There is a vast conspiracy afoot against the Mississippi Supreme Court, according to Napoleon, err, that is, Chief Justice Edwin Pittman. I can assure you that it's not my conspiracy. Maybe it's the one-armed man.

I note that The Ole Miss Conservative (Is this redundant? Can anyone tell me?) is not covering the judicial scandal. Oh well.

In news of the obvious, candidates for office in this year's elections are reportedly watching the case of the New Jackson Five with care. In hopes, I imagine, that they soon won't be there.
