@cd_hooks @EricaGrieder yep, and yet national GOP + conservative media are getting away w/ denigrating this as a "Democrat witch hunt," etc.

@mtracey possible reasons: Texas Democrats have been living under Perry's affable hegemony for years; national Dems comparing to cuomo, etc -

@cd_hooks@EricaGrieder@mtracey IMO, Perry's Saturday statement effectively redirected some media coverage, which I expect was his intent. -

@cd_hooks@jamesdecker2006@mtracey I'd say it's relevant ethically and possibly legally given that the state has to prove intent to harmThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@cd_hooks@jamesdecker2006@mtracey but while we're at it- James, do you understand the indictment itself? -
@EricaGrieder@cd_hooks@mtracey I'm no crim law expert, but yes. I think it's very dependent on the veto as a wrongful act. That's dubious. - 1 more reply
