Legally, this is a joke. No one is going to believe that it is illegal to
to get someone to take a legal action by conditioning it on a legal action.It
is not as absurd as when the same office tried to go after Kay Bailey'sphone,
but it is pretty close.
Politically, it is a dumb act of revenge. They want to get some testimonyin
that will publicize the ethics investigations of the Perry administrationby
the ethics panel that lost some money, but unless they can get some solid evidence that his "real" reason for the veto was to hurt the investigationsI
cannot see a judge letting it in. Not even a Texas judge. And if the prosecution DOES make the case that he was trying to kill theinvestigations,
that UNDERCUTS the whole idea that he was trying to coerce her intoresigning.
Politically, they should be trying to HELP Perry's 2016 chances. He isdumb.
He is inept. His campaign will self-destruct next spring some time. If he
gets hurt politically by this, in spite of being eventually acquitted, that
just pushes him out of the way early, and offers more momentum for some candidate that is less dumb and less inept.
And it does nothing to take the drunk DA off the public streets beforeanyone
is killed in a wreck.

You enjoy yourself, boy. This is nothing more than the same trick the
Dems used to oust a controversial US House rep. It's known as 'dirty politics' even in Houston where the idea originated.
Quite possible... but it is going to be fun to watch as I stated.under
The newspaper stories may be fun. And there could be some fun if the prosecution gets to start subpoenaing e-mails and questioning witnesses
oath. The fishing expedition might turn up some extraneous things. They usually do. But the courtroom part of the case will be short ornon-existent
unless there is more to it than has been publicized so far.

Wonder how many felt the same way about GW Bush's DUI and "expungned" coke conviction or Dick Cheney's two DWI pops.
heney got busted when he was in college, more than fifty years ago. Bush's >was almost forty years ago, before he stopped drinking. Not really the same as
a middle-aged DA with an open vodka bottle getting nasty to where she had to be
chained down.
As for the coke claim, if you believe that then you must believe
every silly story that someone floats in books with anonymous sources. If you
believe that Bush was busted for coke and then had every trace of the arrest, >detention, arraignment, trial, prosecution, verdict, and sentence "expunged" >from the face of the earth, but you DON'T believe that Bill Clinton >participated in running cocaine through the Mena airport, that would be an >interesting double standard.

Boy? LOL... you think too highly of yourself to be calling anyone a
boy.
Oh wait, your "gun" is talking now. I guess that took the place
of your cojones.
It maybe dirty politics, but is there anything else in politics?
I'm rather curious why Michael McCrum, who was hand picked by two GOP senators for US Attorney in your little neck of the woods would see
fit to bring charges against a GOP governor that were confirmed by a
grand jury.
As I said, it's going to be quite the comedy. Wonder if they have a
tailor in Beaumont?
