A corrupt DA gets a questionable (at best) indictment, and a corrupt Congressman says the indictee should resign?

.23 alcohol level in her blood when she was picked up.

Her BAC was .29, not .23 when she was arrested. Almost four times the legal limit. That was about three hours after she was stopped I on suspicion of drunk driving.

To add to her problems, she had an open bottle of vodka on the seat next to her. That is against the open container law in Texas.

After Perry smacks the with the Constitutional authority to line item veto any or all of the budget, he needs to sue every one of them for libel and defamation of character.

I can’t believe she was even physically capable of attempting to drive that drunk.

I think this is less about Hillary and more about Perry making Obama look weak by doing SOMETHING about the border.O is a vengeful child.

Nothing against San Angelo, just a smaller town, sort of in the middle of Texas....but Brady would do nicely,too. They wouldn’t have the phony, frat-house atmosphere of the Big Blue Anus ofTexas that Austin cultivates, as it pathetically brags about being “weird.”

The photo of the Democrat DA who is accusing Perry of ethics violations strapped to the Chump Chair in the drunk tank depicts Austin politics perfectly..

.29 BAC?

That may qualify her for the Texas Drunks Hall of Fame.

That is a bucket of alcohol.

I’d like to see them deport Castro’s @$$ for Texas’ sake. America already has enough freeloading commie politicians.

There are too Castros. This one is a US Representative. Julian Castro is the former Mayor of San Antonio who is now the HUD Secretary. Perhaps Julian will go the way of Henry Cisneros.
