Well the Dems perfected ‘stupid is as stupid does’. We get to see four years of this in action.
It will be on the one had really irritating and on the other really hysterical and irritating.

It’s not. Willacy County, Texas is a Mexican province.

I can’t believe Americans were stupid enough to vote for Obama, so why be surprised at what the Left is doing in the courts?

Welcome to ‘change’ with a Capital “C” as in “communism”.

Oh I forgot they said they wouldn’t go after Bush. They never said they wouldn’t go after Dick Chaney!

Cheney’s probably having a good laugh over this one.

A lot of the Southern and border counties in TX we don’t really want. They’re cesspools.

This is beyond stupid. It is not the VP that sets policy.

Lol...what or who is paying for this? The county or the state?

What’s going to happen if Cheney doesn’t show up?

Cameron County was a Red county in 2004. I’m not sure how it went down this time.

Cameron went “Red” as in rodent Communist Red. For the False Messiah by 2-to-1, 64-35%.

< snip > After Guerra's office was raided as part of an investigation early last year, he camped outside the courthouse in a borrowed camper with a horse, three goats and a rooster. He threatened to dismiss hundreds of cases because he believed local law enforcement had aided the investigation against him.

Guerra has been in office nearly 20 years, but was defeated in the March Democratic Primary. < /snip >

Lame duck prosecutor? More like lame RAT prosecutor!

And the sun rises in the east. Y’know, Dubya is going to literally be forced to issue blanket pardons for his administration to stop this crap after January. If the False Messiah installs Clintonista thug Eric “Show Me Duh Pardon Mun-nay !” Holder as AG, I have no doubt they’ll try to get federal indictments for “War Crimes”, et al, against this administration.
