AUSTIN (CBSDFW.COM/AP) — Texas Governor Rick Perry was booked on two felony counts of abuse of power for carrying out a threat to veto funding to state public corruption prosecutors. He was booked-in, fingerprinted and had his mugshot taken, which is standard procedure for every defendant charged with a felony.
His spokeswoman told CBS 11 News they didn’t ask for any special treatment. Perry, who is mulling a second presidential run in 2016, reported to the Travis County Courthouse on Tuesday. The Republican has called the case a political ploy, and many top Republicans are supporting him. More... http://dfw.cbslocal.com/2014/08/19/texas-gov-perry-turns-himself-in/

Not only is this guy an idiot and a racist. Apparently, he is corrupt as shit too. This guy was trying to be president ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Dirty politicians. Should be jailed for the long term but he'll probably get a slap on the wrist. The Republican has called the case a political ploy, and many top Republicans are supporting him. Still resistant to the end.

At least Perry gave up drinking, unlike the out-of-control sow of an Austin DA who trumped them up.

Here's Ron Paul's take on the situation: Former Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) and Gov. Rick Perry (R-TX) may not see eye to eye on many political and policy issues, but that didn’t stop Paul, a two-time Republican presidential candidate, from tearing into the indictment:
“This is pure politics, I tell ya. This is really a joke,” Paul told MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell on Monday.
The former Texas congressman made sure to mention that he doesn’t “generally defend our governor very much,” saying Perry’s record on civil liberties and foreign policy is “a disaster.”
But in this case, he added, “the abuse of power comes more from the DA’s office than the governor’s office.” Paul and Perry ran for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination. The two had an apparent confrontation during a commercial break at a September 2011 debate, during which Perry placed his right hand on Paul’s arm and held pointed his left pointer finger at his opponent in a lecturing manner.
Paul later played down the incident, telling a crowd of supporters that he couldn’t recall what he and Perry discussed. More... http://www.unitedliberty.org/articles/18509-ron-paul-calls-the-indictment-of-rick-perry-a-joke-slams-the-prosecuting-district-att

No MTL, no MEL. Of course, that's idiotic. Texas should be like New York. How many on this forum are calling the idiot governor of New York an idiot? Wow....

So many innocent people were executed in Texas under Rick Perry and he denied every single one of their appeals. Dude needs to go for good.

Texas leads the nation in job creation. Legalizing bitcoin is a part of that general philosophy. Meanwhile, fascist clowns run places like New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts. You can come down here to trade your bitcoins, fellas. Down to Rick Perry Territory. We'll buy the beer. LOL.... you mean texas the state that is leading the nation in minimum wage "job creation"? http://thinkprogress.org/economy/2011/06/16/246892/perry-minumum-wage-jobs/and do you know who the governor of new jersey is? it's not really that hard to figure out why texas attracts so many jobs. many immigrants willing to work for minimum wage and lax regulations http://www.cbsnews.com/news/probe-of-texas-fertilizer-plant-blast-finds-industry-under-lax-regulation/....just curious, why do you need to politicize everything? And no, minimum wage jobs are not key. We've put on over 60,000 jobs in the south texas Fracking industry in the last several years, average pay 80-100k per year. And the governor of New Jersey is a real jerk. As for immigrants? Los mejores por nosotros aqui, los otros por usted, senor. LOL... are you referring to me talking about the governor of new jersey? because let's be honest here.. he fits your ideology a lot better than any governors from the other states you mentioned. talking about fracking is a whole nother issue that i'm thinking neither of us want to get into. Man, you do not know my ideology or lack of. Fracking is an everyday reality here, so it makes little difference what your opinion of it may be. You might have a take on it that Texas leads in job creation because it is so good at creating evil jobs.... It may be difficult to shoehorn this into a liberal brain, but you can't have freely traded bitcoin and your favorite form of fascist socialism. lol...

if you think you lack an ideology, then i probably know more of your ideology than you do. you are basically a libertarian/republican. if you mean i am liberal by the fact that i think man-made pollution is bad, education is good, and that there are real racial tensions in america.. then yes, i am a liberal. i can guarantee you i'm not voting for a democrat in 2016 or any time in the foreseeable future.

I guess what irritates me is that there is this totally manufactured demigod, the PerryMonster. It has zero relation to reality, and is nothing more than a supervillian in a comic book. And not even a good one. Here we're getting a massive influx of people from California and New York. They are joining the influx from Mexico. Education is irrelevant because it's largely socialization, and the internet has made expensive books and libraries obsolete. Racial tensions are being manufactured all the time for political reasons, best thing to do is ignore "the issue they tell you to be concerned about". What I'm trying to say is that for a fair number of issues, politicizing them is an obstacle to understanding, not an assist. Perry is a competent and smart administrator as governor. You don't hear much if any disrespect for him around here. Clinton was also a competent and smart administrator as governor. You want a really, really bad POTUS? Elect one with no business or administrative experience. Hello, Mr. Bamster.

Turning himself in looks like a publicity stunt. I am guessing this is less of an embarrassing way to get arrested than the way Eliot Spitzer and Bob McDonnell did.

The former does not justify or condone the latter. Meanwhile the Governor of NY is twiddling his thumbs while his administrators propose rules on Bitcoin that criminalize behavior of people dealing with Bitcoin if they don't submit to the rules of NY, even though they be located halfway around the world or in another state. I think my comment about fascists was justified. It may be difficult to shoehorn this into a liberal brain, but you can't have freely traded bitcoin and your favorite form of fascist socialism.
