Rick Perry indicted

[SteyrAUG]

Wait a minute.... Perry wanted someone to resign that was charged with DWI and that equals felony (x2) indictment.

Meanwhile Obama is systematically destroying our country while blatantly over stepping his power and.........nothing.

Clearly you are a racist who should report for political reeducation.

Just too funny - the public integrity unit run is run by a convicted criminal.

I'd be surprised if it were otherwise.

How can this fly without impeachment of POTUS?

They try to basically impeach Perry for doing his job while they won't even discuss impeaching Obama for not doing his job.

I feel like I'm the only one on crazy pills...


EDIT TO ADD: 0.24? She is a serious drunk that needs help. To be intoxicated to that level and functioning as well as she was, that is some serious tolerance to alcohol. A lot of people are jelly at that level.

It would appear that she has a drinking problem, which makes me almost wonder who was the person who reported her erratic driving? I don't think it would take many nights of following her to get her on a DUI.

From my understanding, she almost hit several cars head on traveling in the wrong lane on a service road next to a major hwy/interstate and was called in, and stopped by a deputy.

It looks like they got him on this one. I'm interested in hearing from lawyers in TX, but me brief overview of the statutes and charges leads me to think that Perry has some real problems going forward.

That's the way I read it too. Funny how prosecution of the law on this level seems to be politicized and one sided. If the Dems can keep this up, we'll have Harvey Mushman as the Rep nominee in '16.

And when in jail she kept demanding they "Call Greg!" as if Greg Hamilton, Travis County Sheriff, would be stupid enough to give her a Get Out Of Jail Free card.

If I'm reading this correctly, he would have been well within his authority to veto the funding had he not tied it to Lehmberg's resignation. He should have vetoed their funding and kept his mouth shut; let them read between the lines.

They have got nothing. Govs and POTUS can veto legislation and give their reasons. Obama routinely tells Boehner legislation will be vetoed if he sends it to his desk.

Perry said he would not fund the Public Integrity Unit if it is headed by a convicted criminal. He has the moral high ground.
