well yeah, she could have taken a cab. Of course there is the case of the attorney taking a cab and refusing to pay the driver and cursing him out once he arrived home.....

A judge did rule that she can legally keep her job. I believe in the rule of law.

A judge's ruling is not the law. This thing can be appealed all the way to the US Supreme Court, and it could take years. That's how Obama does it. It's about time we started using their own tactics against them.

Why not run the tape of that drunken woman in a repeating loop on one side of a screen, while stating on the other half:

“Governor Perry was just indicted for asking this drunken Democrat to resign.”

When you vote for Democrats, THIS is what you get...”

“A judge’s ruling is not the law. This thing can be appealed all the way to the US Supreme Court, and it could take years. That’s how Obama does it. It’s about time we started using their own tactics against them.”

At the moment she can legally keep her job.
Also at this moment Perry is only under indictment. He’s not been convicted of anything.

When any of that changes my position will change accordingly.

I’m not very interested in partisan politics. The fact that they do it doesn’t really work for me.

[ I’m not going to ever, ever, ever vote for Perry.

Rick Perry took money from a drug company (Merck) and has several other ties to the company, including his friend and former chief of staff Mike Toomey leaving Perry to work for Merck.

Perry made an executive order that every girl in the state had to get an Merck brand HPV vaccine (Gardasil) because he said so and new better than the parents of Texas. I could never vote for that kind of sleaze.

Perry has admitted that he made a huge mistake doing this, because what else is he going to say; but he’s also proved that he can be bought and paid for and that children are cannon fodder to him.

So... yes, this thing in Austin is sleazy, but Rick Perry using young girls as political payback is pretty much the apex of sleazy. What goes around comes around.

Life News: Rick Perry Admits Mistake on Gardasil-HPV Vaccine Decision^

CNN: HPV vaccine, Merck and Rick Perry’s money^ ]

Dems are just as guilty of this sort of behavior which is WHY they didn’t indict Perry on this....

So I should vote for/offer support to Perry because the Democrats are bad?

Sorry, it doesn't work that way. Perry passed an executive order which sacrificed children for crony payback. I will not support that. It doesn't matter what the Democrats do. I expect them to behave badly. I expect much more from our side.

Re Perry: So, you want to usher in a Blue Texas then?

Really? That's the only choice? Sacrificing children to companies Perry owes a political debt to, or having a "Blue Texas"?

How about the governor of Texas doesn't get to decide what vaccines the little girls of Texas are forced to take? How about that? How about Rick Perry isn't and wasn't qualified to make those decisions, but it didn't stop him from trying.

If Texas is so far gone that most Texans agree with ripping the rights away from parents in an executive order by the governor and handing them to drug companies, they have more problems than the threat of a "Blue Texas".

If Texans want to support having their parental rights and those of their babies torn from their hands to pay a political debt, they can have at it. That doesn't mean that the rest of us have to support their choices.

Maybe Texans have their babies for the state to raise and want to call that "conservative". The rest of us do not have children for the state to raise and we know a malignant overreach when we see it.
