That didn’t take long. Texas Rep. Joaquin Castro on Friday night called for Gov. Rick Perry to resign “for the sake of Texas” just hours following the announcement of Perry’s indictment on two criminal felony counts involving abuse of office.

Perry indicted by a grand jury controlled by the lesbian DA of Travis County, Rosemary Lehmberg. Same vicious, entitled, shameless ‘RAT cockroach who got a political conviction of Tom DeLay; was subsequently arrested, charged, & convicted of DWI (served ~22 days of a 45 day sentence); refused to step down and beat back a civil suit to retain her job; and who now is after Perry for another legal political act, vetoing funding for her office’s Public Integrity section (what a laugh). The charges are bogus, and brought only to damage his 2016 POTUS run.

Hillary Clinton’s hoof prints are all over this one.

Dems are in on it. Probably just clearing the field for Hill 2016.

Castro is a punk. A tool. A doosh.

But, I repeat myself.

Naturally, the little Communist from San Antonio would raise his greasy head and start chirping for media attention. This fiasco will cost the taxpayers of Texas millions simply to make trouble for Perry because he is considering a run for the White House in 2016.

The Democrats in Travis Co. have never indicted a Democrat office holder. They have a 100% record of spitefully going after Republicans. The only way we can change the malignant machinations of the Travis Co. District Attorney’s office, which is all Democrat, is to move the state capital from Austin.

I nominate San Angelo.

One of the sites has a short film of the Travis County DA being led away in handcuffs. Words do not convey my joy in seeing this.

Laws matter all of a sudden?

What about border laws?

What about gunning running to narcoterrorists?

What about rule by executive fiat?

What about repeated smackdowns by the Supreme Court?

Castro needs to libsplain this double standardo to me.

The Mexican Castro brother are clones of the Cuban Castro’s. They are followers of the racist “La Raza” movement whose goal is the creation of Aztlan, a new Mexican state created by returning to Mexicans all the Southwest of United States.

Rick should treat this as an endorsement. Cause in Texas it is.

The drunk DA should have resigned for the sake of Travis County. Oh, wait. That’s what Perry said.

I wouldn’t want a public official that ever registered a .23 alcohol level. That indicates a serious problem to me.

That also indicates that it is not the first time. She had to really work at it to get that droonk. Even by Texas standards that is really plastered.

These people are so effing predictable. This is a naked political play here.. an effort to clear the field for Hillary in 2016 and to give Abortion Barbie a boost in November. And now the Castros are trying to launch the “Perry should resign” narrative.
