BREAKING NEWS: Perry Indicted By Grand Jury Convened By Republican Prosecutor - Texas Idiot Governor Rick "Payback" Perry Faces 99 Years Grand Jury Indicts On Two Felony Counts Abuse Of Power In His Official Capacity And Coercing A Public Servant

       Friday, 15 August 2014, AUSTIN, TEXAS - Career corrupt Texas Idiot Governor Rick "Payback" Perry who first bribed student voters with candies while he struggled unliked through elementary school today was indicted by a Texas Grand Jury convened by a Republican Special Prosecutor on two felony counts of coercing a public servant and abuse of power for abusing his official capacity in his veto of $7.5 million in funding from the State's public watchdog the Texas Public Integrity Unit operated by the Travis County, Texas District Attorney's Office in Austin, Texas on false pretenses. Perry's abuse of power was charged by the Grand Jury as characteristically unlawful Perry "payback" for the Public Integrity Unit's investigation of irregularities in the so-called "cancer charity" The Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas run by a crony of Perry's. One of the former officials there was indicted last year for his mishandling of an $11 million dollar grant meant for the benefit of cancer sufferers. The charge of abuse of official capacity against Perry carries a prison sentence of five to ninety-nine years. The charge of coercion of a public servant a two to ten year prison sentence.
       Republicans defending Perry shrugged off the possible ninety-nine year Perry prison term as a "partisan witch hunt" but acknowledged that it was a "red light" for what had been beginning to appear as his preliminary moves toward a second run for the White House after the debacle of his 2012 Presidential run in which he had broken his promise to Texas voters that he would not make the run if first elected Governor at that time. Perry in any case suffered a complete meltdown in the Republican Presidential debate which left Perry "brain dead still standing" and his candidacy likewise dead in the water. Perry apparently still is showing strong signs of brain death as it was revealed that he had spent $80,000 of Texas taxpayers' money to date for his personal defense, unprecedented for a public official facing such prosecution in Texas history.
       If convicted of the current charges Perry will be the second Texas Governor indicted while in office, the first in almost one hundred years facing serious criminal charges, and should this lead to his conviction and/or termination of his Governorship Perry would hold the ignominious position of being the only Texas governor since Texas Governor James "Pa" Ferguson who in 1917 was indicted in office and resigned the Texas Governorship before he could be impeached after being convicted of ten criminal charges involving his extensive wrongdoing in office involving vetoing appropriations to the University of Texas. With Perry down it is not unexpected that many of his corrupt Republican appointees and cronies developed over years as GOP Governor now may begin to fall like dominoes such as his recently strongly censured U-T Regent appointee Wallace Hall, Jr. also for charges of abuse of power including misconduct, incompetency in the performance of official duties or behavior unbefitting a state official. Hall will be the first appointee of a Texas Governor ever impeached if he is after the Travis County District Attorney finishes its criminal investigation of him.
