She’s the dem scandal du jour last week. Rosemary Lehmburg is Travis Co, Texas DA and a pretty mean drunk. She was busted for DWI last spring. Her office is the one that oversaw the Perry indictments because he had the temerity to insist that she resign for her behavior.

You’d almost think Perry engineered the whole thing himself.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. BTT

She was arrested for DUI? I didn’t know that. (Gotta link for that?)

I knew that her ex had a restraining order on her.

If you should pursue your bright idea of screen printing it, I’d love to know. I haven’t a clue, but would love a tee.

I knew about the DWI, but I didn’t know about the restraining order. When was that?

The DUI question/restraining order was about Wendy - not the DrunkenDA ;-)
