Woah there! I know Robin Rather. I worked down the hall from her when I did contract work for a graphic design business in Austin.

She runs an organization that's trying to get the communities around Austin (Kyle/Buda, Georgetown, etc...) to develop comprehensive development plans for their future so they don't lose their outlying large properties to the sort of expansive suburban development that's taking over hill country.

Say what you want about Dan Rather, but to my knowledge, his daughter is very focused on what she does and has never used his name to do anything, from what I remember.

Can someone be sued for frivolous prosecution?

Yes, it's going to be fun to watch. The suit will probably be in Federal Court.

This Earle guy is slick operator just like his buddy Clinton.

From Houston Chronicle - 1992

Republicans asked Earle to investigate ethics charges against Land Commissioner Garry Mauro's flagrant abuse of campaign financing for Clinton.

"reports in the Houston Chronicle that Mauro (Dems operative) used state telephones and employees to help run Democrat Bill Clinton's presidential campaign.

This is the same Ronnie Earle who not too long ago loudly
preached for strong governmental ethics in his well-publicized investigation of House Speaker Gib Lewis (Republican) for alleged improper ties with special interest lobbyists.

Shortly after the 1990 election...Earle took
Lewis' case to a grand jury and, 12 days before the 1991
Legislature convened, won some misdemeanor indictments alleging that Lewis had received an illegal gift in the form of a $ 5,000 tax payment made on his behalf by a San Antonio law firm. Earle admitted the indictments were timed to give House members second thoughts about re-electing Lewis to a fifth term as presiding officer.

But Lewis overwhelmingly won re-election and, in a plea
bargain a year later, succeeded in getting the indictments
dismissed in return for a slap on the wrist for some unrelated, minor financial reporting violations.
