Before Texas Governor Rick Perry's criminal indictment, before national attention turned its focus to the state capital Austin and Perry's 2016 presidential ambitions - Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg was arrested for drunk driving.
Lehmberg, a Democrat, is one of the most powerful prosecutors in the state. She had a blood alcohol level of 0.239percent - nearly three times the legal limit - when she was arrested in April 2013.
Jailhouse video shows her drunk, belligerent, threatening officers, kicking the door of her cell and repeatedly trying to pull rank in the Travis County Detention Center.

Or even better retire to the study for a last brandy with a revolver.
Ah the good old days.....
Thats nothing. I’ve seen REAL pro’s in the ER come in with a BAL of over 300, and they are walking with a slight sway and a little slurred speech. THAT takes
practice.....
Yep but the MSM will conveniently forget that part.
I think Perry will get a mug shot then it’d be posted every time Perry is mentioned in the MSM.
They may forget it, but that doesn’t prevent it being mentioned in interviews and it does not prevent us from mentioning it when the subject is raised in conversation. Screw the American Soviet Media - my aim is to defeat them.
I’m sure this will be bandied about between talking heads who haven’t a clue about anything. People will forget but those idiots will keep on hammering it .... every time Perry gets interviewed that will be brought up.
And Perry will remind the interviewer of the sloppy, belligerent drunk DA. We can either acquiesce to the enemy or we can fight. This why the Right often gets hammered - defeatist attitude. Fight or submit. If one choses the latter, then one shouldn’t complain about the result.
I hope he does, slamming the interviewer into humiliation and shame.
He has been doing so in recent interviews - reminding the viewer that the DA was hammered and endangering the lives of others. He didn’t even defund her whole office - just the Public Integrity unit.
Yup, overlooks Hippie Hollow on Lake Travis. Now you know why he has those high powered telescopes on the decks.
I would bet a lot of cases of vodka were affected.
