It will be interesting to see how the trial goes. The other allegations are
pretty standard for politicians. Doesn't make the favors for money a good thing
for the people but it is pretty standard stuff.

You know Michael, when you have to resort to the Young Turkeys for the low
down on Rick Perry, you're scraping the bottom of the barrel. Even the Houston
Chronicle can't do any better than the current charges brought by the Travis
county DA. Travis county is an Oasis of liberalism in Texas. There motto is
*Keep Austin Weird*. They prosecuted Tom Delay on corruption charges. Won a
conviction which was overturned by higher courts. Rick Perry refused to fund a
corruption agency in Travis county until they fired someone on that committee.
Turns out that person was busted for drunk driving and very belligerent
towards DPS officers giving her the sobriety test and while in jail. She made
an absolute fool of herself and it's all over the internet. Rick Perry was
within his rights as Governor to withhold funding until that state organization
cleaned it's self up. Especially an ethics organization. But this is Texas
politics. Go figure.

No that's not what I meant.
I meant that just the similarity between two successful politicians both of
whom said the wrong thing at the wrong time. I think Lott was a crook but
shouldn't have included that in my post. Tho now that you mention it, Perry is
still facing charges on corruption while in office, his lawyers have not gotten
those charges dismissed.

Please explain how Rick Perry is like Trent Lott and how Rick Perry lied,
stole and cheated.

Just like Trent Lott - that guy lied, cheated and stole with both hands
and got clean away with it till he made the statement that if good ol' Strom
Thurmond had been elected president (when he was running on what was basically
a segregationist platform) the country would have been much better off. I mean
he was the Senate Majority leader and had to resign after making that
statement. It was said that even his friends in the senate avoided him in the
senate when they saw him coming down the halls.

No. he'll never over- come the oops moment. Nobody cares about an obvious
misspeak. Political opponents will try to make hay with something like that but
that's just grabbing at straws. I can relate to the oops moment. Perry had
undergone back surgery prior to the debate and had been taking something like
hydrocodone for pain. I used hydrocodone for eight months at maximum legal
strength after an accident and that stuff makes you very dull and slow. I
realized I was getting addicted and just went cold turkey. Stopped taking it
and lived with the pain until it naturally went away a few months later. Perry
did an excellent job of managing Texas during his years, while the rest of the
country was in major recession. But, he'll never live that first impression on
stage with *ooops* down.

Right... even though he referred to the event as a crime during the
conversation. His rep later said it was clear that Perry misspoke and intended
to say *incident*. Ever hear Obama misspeak? One comes to mind instantaneously,
he repeatedly sounded the *P* in the word *corpsman*, not once, not twice but
several times while reading from his teleprompter. But then I guess you could
say that wasn't a *misspeak* since it happened repeatedly. But then we all cut
the Harvard educated constitutional law professor some slack. At least he
didn't aks the wrong question.
