Probably because they are. Ted Haggard, Jimmy Swaggart, Joe Paterno, Tricky Dickie Nixon, Jim Baker, Spiro Agnew, W Bush, Dick Cheney, Rush Limbaugh, Bill Oreilley
Wow, that biotch is DRUNK!
What you folks defending Perry fail to recognize is that he was trying to force someone from an elected office with a threat to withhold funding for an investigative unit if they did not resign. This is also known as extortion. It doesn't matter how drunk the DA was or how badly she behaved. The essential fact remains that she was duly elected and it is up to the voters to remove her from office. Not by the governor's decision.
Perry didn't veto a bill because he didn't approve of it.
He vetoed it to follow through on a threat that he made - resign or I will veto your bill.
To me, that doesn't seem to be the way to conduct business.
In the end, I don't think anything will come of this and it won't hurt his potential presidential pursuit.
Other things will hurt his presidential pursuit, like competence, but this won't hurt him much.

A fifth-generation Texan, Perry was born on March 4, 1950 in Paint Creek, about 60 miles (97 km) north of Abilene in West Texas, to ranchers Joseph Ray Perry and the former Amelia June Holt. Perry's ancestry is almost entirely English, dating as far back as the original thirteen colonies. His family has been in Texas since before the Texan Revolution.[
So you are saying he is White... you are sure that he is White!!!?
Man, you had me worried there that a non-White could be a governor....
Thanks for posting Rick Perry's WHITE cred. If he wasn't as WHITE as you say... man, can you imagine.........
That would mean that Texas is bigger than we thought (= there are non-WHITES in power)

Say's who?
People elected the Governor to fire POS like this beligerent tard DA. Looks like he did just that. Good on him.
The charges are laughable. Kind of like you.
This thing will go no where. So you cling to you BS ideology and I will laugh at you when this garbage gets dropped. As if the Governor doesn't have the authority to toss out criminals from State Govt Position? Wow, you are stupid!
"Mr. Perry, the first sitting Texas governor to be indicted in nearly a century, spoke briefly on Tuesday evening before making his way past reporters and television cameras at the Travis County Courthouse to be photographed and fingerprinted. Mr. Perry, wearing a dark suit and tie, was smiling as he stood for his mug shot. His entry into the state’s criminal justice system had the atmosphere of a campaign stop as sign-waving and chanting supporters greeted him outside the courthouse. He said he was entering with 'head held high' and vowed to fight the charges 'with every fiber of my being'.”

A.Dershowitz himself calls the charges BS. That speaks volumes to how warped this pos DA and her lackey's really are.
Either way she is done. LOL!
So tell me, The Real Dealio--did KMart have a special this week on apostrophes?
I know, I know--I had a Texas "education" too*--yet somehow I managed to learn that plurals (much less third-person singular verbs!) are NOT formed with apostrophes.
So what's [note correct use of an apostrophe] the dealio: does a word that ends in "s" just not look right to you, unless you throw in an apostrophe?
*Which is why I don't give the BrosJo as hard a time about their solecisms as most of y'all: they're trying to recover from the effects of Texas schooling.

I notice you don't refute any of the facts in this bogus indictment! Because you can't! Keep chasing apostrophes!
Gov. Perry is laughing imbecile attacks from the leftist.
Some of you leftist think that this DA is above the law. She could commit murder and keep her job. Why? Because she is a liberal demoRat that is why!
Kill the messenger, not the message. You're quite bright.

Lets have a "spelling contest" to prove that this indictment will lead to a prosecution and won't be thrown out.
That will settle that, according to the ideological libtards with zero arguement.

Proof that you have no argument and this bs is going nowhere. Lol!
No, the Governor does not have the authority to toss out criminals from elected office. That's up to the voters. And the Republican prosecutor from San Antonio who pursued the indictment decided this was indeed the case, and Perry abused his office. You are the stupid one.

It will get tossed out like the DUI DA!
Then I will continue to laugh at you stupid.
Speaking of tossed out, there was already an ethics trial of the DA and the judge ruled in the end that there was no grounds to remove her from office.
