>>Nice to see this dirtbag finally indicted for something. Ironic that it involves the funding for a statewide public integrity unit - seeing how the guy sent an innocent guy to be executed then did whatever he could to block the investigation about it. (Cameron Todd Willingham) How this creep has been in office so long is a good example of why I don't have a whole lot of faith in the American voters.

Political or not, it is very VERY clear that the guy broke the law. Perry abused his power by threatening Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg with a veto for Public Integrity Unit funding if she did not resign. That is abuse of power & illegal. As I said before he has no valid argument - he crossed the line. Now if he would of just kept his mouth shut and not made such a threat, then did the veto - he would be ok. But that is not what happened, he made the threat & then carried it out - thus he broke the law. Very simple.

...or anyone else that is pursuing it :) (needless to say I don't care for the guy too much)
