How could she not drink for 45 days (while in jail) and not end up in the hospital with the DT's? Gee willikers, I sure hope that didn't happen. < /sarc>

realize its going to be a battle (the beginning of many) leading up to the elections””””
Funny how this followed Perry bringing the Texas Guard to the border to stop the illegals.

Chances are good that she didnt voluntarily surrender her law license, it was probably suspended by the State Bar Assoc (the gawds that be). I haven't read anywhere that she surrendered her law license. She did lose her driver's license for 180 days.

Tom Delay...it destroyed him politically. I don't know if it did or not. He should run for Speaker.

Watch for this case to get quietly dismissed soon. Its going to backfire so bad for the Dems. Rick Perry will use this like a club. He will end up getting votes he never would have gotten.

I thought the same thing, then I thought “retaliation.”

Nothing happened with her law license....the charge wasn’t a felony, just a misdemeanor

He has a right to a timely trial. Demand it. If the DA isn't ready, too bad. Move for a directed verdict also.
Possibly ask to move the trial out of Austin to a Republican County and then go for a directed verdict.

"That she has trumped up these baseless charges"
She doesn't have anything to do with it. Nor does the Public Corruption Unit or the Travis County DA's office have anything to do with it
The complaint was filed in a Bexar County(San Antonio) court presided over by a republican judge by the name of Bert Richardson.
Judge Richardson appointed a special prosecutor by the name of Michael McCrum who is also a republican, a lawyer in San Antonio.
McCrum investigated the complaint, convened the Grand Jury, and got the indictments.

He should run for Speaker
*************
That would be an interesting event. Although the Constitution doesn’t require
the Speaker to be an elected member of the House I don’t believe a non-house member
has ever been chosen.

I was wondering if she was an antidepressants because of that. If she is mixing them with booze.....she could have a seizure.

She didnt spend the whole 45 days in jail. She served about half that sentenced.
Right but that doesn't explain how she managed to stop drinking (while in jail), if in fact she did stop. Per the article she was drinking an enormous amount of alcohol every day. A person couldn't drink that much and not have serious withdrawal if it were suddenly stopped. By day 2 of no alcohol I'd expect an alcoholic to be a basket case.

From the videos I saw, she was a basket case before she went to jail.

And when the trial formally begins, the `discovery process’ kicks in, and skeletons will be skedaddling out of many closets. Lots of flattering photos, too.
Perry to his enemies: “Bring it, you stupid jerks.”

I heard on tv this morning that George W appointed her - do you know if that is true? And yes, she is a sloppy drunk who is an embarrassment to Travis County
