Yesterday, Rick Perry was indicted on charges of abuse of official capacity and coercion of a public servant – felonies that could potentially result in a life sentence – after following through on his promise to veto state prosecutors investigating public corruption.
The left-leaning advocacy group, Texans for Public Justice, has largely pushed the issue, which stems from Perry threatening to cut $7.5 million over two years from the public integrity unit in order to pressure Rosemary Lehmberg, the Travis County District Attorney whose office oversaw that unit, to resign after she was convicted of driving under the influence.
While the courts will have to rule on the legitimacy of the charges, it’s not hard to see why Governor Perry may not want Rosemary leading an office.
Maybe she was just expressing solidarity with the obese drunk, hillary clintoon. Give her a break. She is just a typical DIMocRAT.
LOL! Dems dirty laundry. Why am I not surprised?
Seems to be a pattern among RATS.

This is funny. Should make Perry REAL popular .
But she only had “ 2 glasses of wine”.....
Say what you will about leftists, but their invocation of irony is often ironic in itself...and this from people who are impervious to irony.
LOL...I sure did word that so awkwardly that it came out backwards! What I meant was...ah, never mind. must have coffee...
Sounds like the Travis county DA is doing exactly what he is charging Perry with. Sounds like the AG should be pursuing an indictment of the Travis county DA.
