AUSTIN – Texas Gov. Rick Perry, a longtime Republican political figure and 2016 presidential hopeful, was indicted Friday by a Travis County grand jury following an investigation into whether he withheld millions of dollars from the office of the local district attorney, a Democrat.

Grand jurors charged Perry, 63, with abuse of official capacity, a first-degree felony, and coercion of a public official. Perry must now turn himself in to the Travis County Jail, where he will be booked, fingerprinted and and have his mug shot taken, according to KVUE-TV.

And that's the best you righties got?

" You Dems do it too! Nyaah, Nyaah, Nyaah! But your lame stream media is biased and doesn't cover it when you do it. So you shouldn't mention it when we do it."

You tell 'em, Sarah Whozit...

The storys your whores in the MSM make a big deal out of, and the ones they under report are proof THEY ARE YOUR WHORES! The Gov of N.Y. shut down the commission that was looking into scandals that he said he'd stop, instead he is now apart of that scandal, this is what got Nixon into hot water. Where are the endless headlines and storys on the 24 hour cable news networks? YES! You Dems do it too, where are the endless storys? This may be why news paper sales are way down and MSNBC and CNN's ratings are in the can.

So you admit that Benghazi proves that FOX are a bunch of whores. That's a good first step: admitting you have a problem.

Perry announces he will VETO SPENDING LEGISLATION for the INTEGRITY office as long as she is there - which is his duty, and responsibility to do, otherwise the law would not have given him that responsibility and duty. He does as he promised.

None of the facts were allowed into the Grand Jury, rigged by the Special Prosecutor who was appointed by libtard Dem Lloyd Dogget.

Even liberal professor Turley says this is a travesty and corruption of the Justice system.
What a joke of libtards.

Well, that must settle it, then. Has Turley ever been wrong, in your estimation? Ever?

What sort of discussion of the issue did you expect? Example?
It is highly unlikely the OP had any intention of generating reasonable discussion.

It seems that during Perry’s time as governor there have been two other District Attorneys who were convicted of DUI, but Perry didn’t push for them to resign.
In 2002, Swisher County District Attorney Terry McEachern was arrested in New Mexico after a family called into police reporting someone swerving into oncoming traffic and driving off the shoulder of the road.

Then in 2009, Kaufman County District Attorney Rick Harrison was arrested after driving the wrong way down a street and hitting another car. Oh, by the way, this incident was actually Harrison’s second DWI conviction.
Just in case you’re wondering, both of these men are Republicans and neither were investigating Perry’s office for corruption.

But it gets better. According to Progress Texas in 2011, former Republican state representative Jim Stick was convicted of drunk driving. Since that conviction he’s been appointed as chief legal council for the Texas Health and Human Services Commission.

So we have four different individuals who were convicted of driving drunk while Rick Perry has been governor. Three of those individuals were Republicans, one was a Democrat. Two of the three Republicans were District Attorneys who weren’t asked to resign by Rick Perry. While the third was actually allowed to take a prominent legal position within a state agency.

But when it came to the fourth, the Democrat investigating Rick Perry for corruption, he used threats and blackmail to try to force her to resign from her position so that he could personally choose her replacement.
For someone to look at this information and not see that Perry clearly had political motives behind his actions towards Lehmberg is either incredibly naive or just flat-out lying.

There’s no way Perry can rationally go into a courtroom and make a case as to why he felt Lehmberg should have been removed from her position when he clearly had no problem with these other two Republican District Attorneys staying in office following their DUI convictions.

In my opinion, it’s clearly obvious what happened here. Rosemary Lehmberg was investigating Perry’s office on possible corruption charges. Then following her DUI conviction, Perry saw an opportunity to get rid of her. So he used his position as governor to try to intimidate, threaten and blackmail Ms. Lehmberg into resigning, because if she resigned, he would have been able to choose her replacement.

Because nothing at all sounds corrupt about a governor using their power to try to force the resignation of someone investigating his office for corruption, knowing that he would be able to personally handpick whomever would take over the investigation.

Na, that doesn’t sound corrupt at all.
