So here's what we have. Travis Co. DA DUI. .23 BAC Convicted. Calls for her resignation ignored. Govn'r tries to force her out by withholding state funding. Travis Co DA's office retaliates by indicting Perry. At issue here: does the Gov. have authority to withhold funding to force a resignation? This. This is the bottom line. From what I have seen, he has the power of the line item veto. The funding was a line item, he vetoed it. Sounds legit to me. Also, caught some lefty talking head on the radio that was all but screaming that "Perry needs to resign now, he is a felon and we cannot have a criminal as governor". So, lemme get this straight. It is OK to have a convicted criminal lead the department that deals with political integrity, but a governor with a bullshit indictment against him should step down immediately. Dibs on Perry's gun collection. |

It just occurred to me, you have to give up your guns while under indictment, right?
Dude probably has a shit-ton of guns to get out of the house. |

Quoted:
Travis Co. is a lefty stronghold that rivals most anything you'll on the Left Coast or in the Northeast. The Travis Co. D.A.'s office has a history of political prosecutions of Republicans. In the past they've tried it with former U.S. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, and former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay. The D.A. had to shop multiple grand juries before he found one that would indict DeLay. Delay's conviction was overturned and he was later acquitted. However, the Dems achieved their goal of getting DeLay, known as the "Hammer", out of office. The case against Hutchison was thrown out by a judge before it even went to trial. Google Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg to see what a piece of "work" she is. View Quote It very much bothers me to continually see how far tyranny has spread, but nothing is done about it. |

That was just the booking video. She was weaving across all 4 lanes of RR 620 when people on the road started calling the Lakeway police to report a possible DUI. She cussed the Lakeway cops something fierce. Made all kinds of threats. Had an open bottle of vodka in the front seat of her Lexus. The prosecutor got her credit card records and showed that she was buying 3 - 4 liters of vodka a week, each one at a different liquor store. Never the same stores in the same week. Tito's IIRC. Nasty drunken bitch. And the only defense her supporters could come up with for her not resigning was that, "She didn't hurt anybody." And she served 5 days of that 45 day sentence.

David Axelrod: "Perry indictment looks pretty sketchy"
The dyke must have been throwing some wild lesbian parties with all that vodka. Lehmberg’s sentence, a fine and 45 days in jail, was most likely the highest in history in Travis County for a first-time DWI charge. The investigation into her case also revealed a less-than-flattering picture of her drinking habits. Subpoenaed receipts from Twin Liquors showed her buying 72 bottles of Cirroc vodka—totaling more than 23 gallons—in a 15-month period, and that Lehmberg spread her purchases out among different stores. This amount only covers purchases made with her credit card at that one liquor store chain, not cash purchases or alcohol obtained elsewhere. View Quote The Texas Local Government Code, in Chapter 87, allows public officials like district attorneys to be removed from office for "incompetency, official misconduct, habitual drunkenness, or other causes defined by law." The 1987 revision to the law added a single incidence of intoxication on or off duty as a potential cause for removal.
In the meantime, Lehmberg is facing a new set of legal troubles, as an ethics complaint was filed against her last week, accusing her of failing to properly report on her campaign finance reports the source of the more than $227,000 in attorneys fees she paid to her defense counsel. The complaint was filed by Austin attorney Kerry O’Brien, the same attorney who had previously filed a lawsuit to have her removed from office, under a provision of Texas law that allows any Texas citizen to bring such a suit against a public official who is unfit for office. The specific allegations of the complaint note that Lehmberg’s campaign finance reports note a $227,885 legal bill due to the Austin-based law firm Richards, Rodriguez & Skeith, some partial payments on that bill totaling $16,060, but do not indicate the source of the funds. Lehmberg has said that she intends to raise contributions to cover the remaining $211,825 still owed, but has not yet reported any such contributions. The Texas Ethics Commission has five days to determine if the complaint against Lehmberg is sufficient to move forward with an investigation. Breitbart Texas will continue to follow this story.

23 gallons / 15 months = 1.533 gallons per month / 4.33 weeks per month = .3541 gallons per week / 7 days in a week = .05 gallons ... or .4 pints per day.

"Unless he was demonstrably trying to scrap the ethics unit for other than his stated reason, Perry indictment seems pretty sketchy," David Axelrod tweeted.

Gov. Rick Perry today made the following statement regarding the decision by the Travis County Grand Jury:
“As governor, I took an oath to faithfully uphold the constitution of Texas, a pledge that I have kept every day as I’ve worked on behalf of Texans for the last 14 years. This same constitution clearly outlines the authority of any governor to veto items at his or her discretion. Just as I have following every legislative session during my service as governor, I exercised this authority to veto funding for an office whose leadership had lost the public’s confidence by acting inappropriately and unethically.
“I wholeheartedly and unequivocally stand behind my veto, and will continue to defend this lawful action of my executive authority as governor. We don’t settle political differences with indictments in this country. It is outrageous that some would use partisan political theatrics to rip away at the very fabric of our state’s constitution. “This indictment amounts to nothing more than an abuse of power and I cannot, and will not, allow that to happen. I intend to fight against those who would erode our state’s constitution and laws purely for political purposes, and I intend to win. I will explore every legal avenue to expedite this matter and bring it to a swift conclusion. I am confident we will ultimately prevail, that this farce of a prosecution will be revealed for what it is, and that those responsible will be held to account.” LINK View Quote |
