Texas Gov. Rick Perry plans to turn himself into authorities Tuesday afternoon at a local Texas jail on the heels of his indictment for alleged abuse of power, a member of the governor's legal team told Fox News.

I hope there is a way he can use it, to his advantage, in campaign materials. Wouldn’t that be something?

The Dems will use his MUG SHOT in campaign ads! PLUS, he will lose his right to carry his concealed gun, or hunt, or BUY any guns, till he is acquitted. The Austin police SWAT Team MAY also raid his home to confiscate his personal firearms.

Perry MUST refuse to cooperate.

Does he want his mug shot to be used in campaign ads?

And, just who in Texas is empowered to compel him?

Nay, DO NOT turn yourself in Governor!

I was on a rant yesterday and said that very same thing to my son. Time to quit dancing with these fools and take it outside for a real fight.

I was careful enough not to get banned, but you saw what I meant. :)

** eventually vindicated. **

Political career destroyed (which was the entire point, just like Perry).

Take it to the people.

That’s shorthand for: ‘I’m miffed at why the Governor is taking this course of action’.

I’m sure the combination of politics and law is above my pay grade, so to speak, but I just don’t understand the strategy here.

Not if he follows Tom Delay's example. Delay knew that the Dems couldn't wait to get their hands on a mug shot showing a scowling, guilty-looking Tom Delay that they could plaster all over the media. Instead, all they had to work with was a picture of a man who looked like he had just won the lottery.

No matter what happens now, the ensuing mugshot will never disappear.

Speaking of mugshots...

This entire situation is purely ridiculous to the informed.

The liberals did this for the uniformed. Personally, I think

this farce will backfire on the dems. Perry should know Never

to trust democrats. Ever. They are mean through and through.

There needs to be NO liberals left in America. Down to the very last one. Not one left. Don't care if they are nice people. Don't care if they are talented.

What about if they're beautiful babes, Laz? Are you going to stop "hitting" them?

I'm on board with you. I just came off a chat room where one actually opined that the police officer in Ferguson had his cheek fractured at the station, in order to help with his side of the story.

Had to laugh at that one, Mr. Laz.

I gave an explanation in post #31.
