Texas Governor Rick Perry Indicted For Abuse Of Power

[drop45]

I have to admit, because of a little dyslexia on first read I thought you said "Destrocrat". Heh, wondered, well, Destro can be a bit abrasive at times, but what the heck you got against him?

I've seem some fairly obscure contortions of political names, and it's not all that hard to figure out "Odumma". But what is a Desmocrat?

Living near the hood my whole life I ran across quite a few people who couldn't say Democrat instead the said "desmocats" so I just run with it.

Could be an indication of the way that indictment is going to go for the prosecutor.

Actually, it's going pretty much as I figured it would, given the makeup of INGO and their love of the gop.

Yep. It's our love for the GOP that made the OP a premature ill advised post. It's surely not because after the facts come out the OP turns out to be nothing more than anti-Perry rhetoric.

What was ill advised? It's news and it was breaking. It will definitely put a crimp in his plans for moving into the White House. If you think that's not the case, then you don't pay much attention to politics.

There's already existing case-law precedent for this.

Is the indictment of Texas Gov. Rick Perry inconsistent with a Texas Court of Appeals precedent (as to the ?coercion? count)? - The Washington Post

Lol. Once again I bow to your superiorness.

Guess his holiness isn't going to save him from this. Two felony indictments for abusing his powers as governor. LOL. Hope he gets what's coming to him. Corrupt politicians should always be made to pay. He'll look good in orange.

Maybe your back button isn't working so well. I thought I'd bring your OP forward to remind you of your virtual snoopy dance.

Dude, if Axelrod doesn't even want to touch this it probably ain't going anywhere. Especially not in Texas. That it even was indicted is only an indicator that the people in that county of loons are insanely desperate.

Don't get me wrong. Anything that serves to tank that dolts chances in the primary or general delights. I make no secret of that. He's a terrible would be candidate, as we saw last go around. The fact that he's been re-elected in Texas speaks volumes about the residents of that 3rd world crap hole police state. The gop has a few better candidates they could be running with and if this serves to derail this moron then I' glad. And corrupt politicians SHOULD get what's coming to them. Sure his holiness pope Perry has a few more skeletons that his erstwhile opponents will be more than happy to bring out when the time comes.

So what you are say is, You are an 'Ends justify the means' guy, right? You seem to be satisfied that trumped up charges will sink him, it's just fine with you. Am I correct?
I care not for Gov Perry, I don't dislike him either. If he really has committed illegal acts, by all means, bring the charges forward. But this isn't what is happening and you know it. The fact that you do and see nothing wrong is disturbing actually.

Sounds about right.

Seems to me an indication Libertarians (at least some) are quite willing to play the same games as those they bemoan.

The victory dance before the game even got started.

The "He's guilty. Guilty, I say. Guilty as HELL." in this thread, and the "We should wait for the investigation/trial before we condemn" in other threads.

The "I'm going to rejoice to see a Republican taken down, but ignore the 10-to-1 ratio of equally bad (or worse) corruption among the Democrats."

Should I go on?

Nope. He broke the letter of the law. What he did was an indictable offence. Whether he gets convicted or not is up in the air.

Well, that, and some of em' have just lived in moms basement for so long that they just have no clue as to how to function in the real world, it's understandable, I guess........

Did you even read the link that was posted ON WASHINGTON POST for cryin' out loud! Letter of the law my ass. Even liberal "experts" say the charge is bogus.

That will be for a court to decide, not a journalist.
