'Moderate' Voice Fails to State Why Rick Perry Pushed for DA Removal
NewsBusters ^ | August 16, 2014 | P.J. Gladnick

One should always put the "Moderate" in Moderate Voice in quotes. Why? Because they are a Liberal Voice masquerading as a "Moderate" Voice. It's a nice little shtick to hide their real agenda but sometimes they get a little too obvious in the attempt to hide  their inner Liberal.

A good example is the Moderate Voice story about Texas Governor Rick Perry getting indicted by a Travis County grand jury for "abusing" his power by pushing for the removal of that county's District Attorney, Rosemary Lehmberg. To read their story, you would have no idea why Perry was pushing for her to leave office other than wanting to remove a Democrat from office. However, to see the reason why Perry and many others wanted her out of the D.A. spot you need to watch her drunken antics (after the jump) when she was arrested for DUI last year. Something the "Moderate" Voice so very conveniently failed to mention.

You MUST watch the video of Lehmberg. It is the only way to fully appreciate what a drunken moonbat she is and why she needs to be REMOVED from office. There was a Hannibal Lecter mask and now we have a Rosemary Lehmberg Spit Mask.

Travis County is and has been a liberal hotbed for a long time. Oddly, the only time the officials of Travis County have had any trouble with various figures in Texas political circles, is when they detect some wrong, real or imagined, they can assign to Republicans, then they are ferocious in their tenacity.

This is going to be the future of politics-every Republican or conservative that poses a credible threat to a Democrat will be indicted or investigated. The DOJ, through the state US Attorneys’, will be particularly active before the election. All of this while Obama runs amok with his ‘pen and phone’, end running Congress.

Liberal extremists always THINK that they are “moderate” you silly! It’s those little old ladies holding a TAXED ENOUGH ALREADY sign at the TEA Party rallies who are the real “domestic terrorists” and extremists. Ask Eric the Holder! He’ll tell you!

A county DA is convicted of DUI. The Governor wants the DA fired. Did the Governor do anything improper to bring about that firing?

Weird. I was listening to NPR on my car radio this AM, and they failed to mention the DUI and alcohol abuse. Really, they didn't even mention it. If you buy 23 gallons of vodka, and you don't operate a bar or restaurant, I think there is a good chance you have a problem.

Perry needs to have everyone involved in this travesty arrested by the Texas Rangers.

Hopefully they'll do a better job than the baseball team.

Its gonna be fun watching the leftist media try to spin this farce while keeping the facts of the case hidden.

They'll end up looking like they're trying to protect the drunken sod.

It will take a year or more for this to reach the court room, if then. But the
proproganda will be interesting to watch as it builds towards a court date.

The DOJ, through the state US Attorneys’, will be particularly active before the election. All of this while Obama runs amok with his ‘pen and phone’, end running Congress.

The 'rats have learned that what cannot be accomplished with (stealing) elections can be achieved via legal chicanery. After state after state rejected 'gay marriage', they overturned the will of the people in the courts. They cannot defeat the likes of Delay and Perry, so they seek to use the courts to nickel and dime them to death.

This is starting to look like the waning days of the Roman Republic, when every outgoing Consul was prosecuted by his successor and all his legislation overturned, leading to his exile and disgrace. This came to a head when Caesar refused to go along with it. Republicans are going to have to start playing hardball.

Perry can have some fun with it if he’s halfway clever enough.

He plied her with alcohol and handed her the keys.

What is this “firing” you speak of.

I’ve often listed among the reasons you cannot allow the election of any Democrat president, control of the US Attorneys throughout the nation. They can be a last line of defense against dem corruption, or an instrument of terror.

The NY Slimes also whitewashed the story. Other than mentioning the DUI they ignored the part about her being 3X the legal limit and belligerent enough to require restraints.

The one thing this does tell us is that the demoncraps see Perry as a threat in 2016.
