I agree completely. Is Travis county run by the Democrats? If so, expect coverups rather than genuine investigations, and certainly, no prosecutions.
The question is, will Burkett drink the purple kool-aid?
Also, remember TapeGate from the 2000 campaign? The Demo operative who sent Bush's debate tapes to Gore? Earle had to be badgered into prosecuting that chick and then gave her a wristslap.
To say the least...it's referred to as the Peoples Republic of Austin here in Texas.
