"The Cornyn supporters have committed libel per se against me, falsely and maliciously accusing me of a felony. Of course, I have never been charged with or committed any such act, and these anonymous Cornyn supporters know it. As a sitting member of the United States Congress, I find it unconscionable that another member's supporters would make such reckless, malicious and false allegations.

"By law, Senator Cornyn cannot authorize nor coordinate his campaign activities with the PAC. I therefore call upon Senator Cornyn to publicly denounce the defamatory tactics of his supporters who are hiding behind Texans for a Conservative Majority.

"Voters are entitled to more from their elected officials than secretive smear-campaigners who operate PACs. It's time that men like John Cornyn join with me in condemning reckless and malicious defamation by misleadingly-named groups like Texans for a Conservative Majority."

Wanton and willful disregard for veracity. It’s a high bar to prove libel against a public figure, but in this case, Cornyn may have hurdled it.

“from the late Robert Perry, a $185,000 donor to Cornyn and advocate for illegal alien amnesty.”

Okay, this is poorly worded.

Is Perry an advocate for illegal alien amnesty or is Cornyn an advocate for illegal alien amnesty.

This could get interesting....

http://trailblazersblog.dallasnews.com/2014/01/in-1995-stockman-admitted-jail-time-felony-charge-today-he-denies-that-accusing-cornyn-allies-of-lying.html/

WASHINGTON – Tonight, Rep. Steve Stockman accused a group that supports Sen. John Cornyn
of lying about him, by asserting that he had been “jailed more than once” and was “charged
with a felony.”

That is strange, because Stockman has admitted to these facts, several times.

“I may have been in jail a couple of times, two or three times,” he told this newspaper.

As for the felony charge, that
stemmed from the time his girlfriend hid three Valium tablets in his underpants when
he was reporting for a weekend in jail. “When they found that they charged me with a felony,”
he told the Houston Chronicle.

Those interviews were back in 1995, during Stockman’s first two-year stint in Congress.
