Houston’s power-mad Mayor Annise Parker has backtracked on those subpoenas that she had the city issue to five city pastors, at taxpayer expense.

The mayor made the move as Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott sent a letter to Parker asking that she withdraw the subpoenas “immediately.”

Attorney General Greg Abbott Asks Houston City Attorney to Withdraw Subpoenas Seeking Sermons, Other Documents from Houston-area Pastors

AUSTIN — Attorney General Abbott today asked that the Houston City Attorney to immediately withdraw the subpoenas sent last month to several Houston-area pastors seeking sermons, notes and other information.

In his letter to the city attorney, Attorney General Abbott said, “Whether you intend it to be so or not, your action is a direct assault on the religious liberty guaranteed by the First Amendment. The people of Houston and their religious leaders must be absolutely secure in the knowledge that their religious affairs are beyond the reach of the government.”

......nothing quite so fearsome as a lesbian with subpoena power.

IMNVHO, many lesbians suffer from subpoena envy. I have also heard that the Houston Lesbo-Pol became so angry with the City Attorney that she started munching the office carpet. She is so worried about a flood of adverse publicity, because if it overflows there's no Hans Brinker in Houston to stick their finger in the dyke to stop it.

BTW, who voted for this assklown anyway?
