15. Juanita Jean is enjoying the fact that Perry is lawyering up

Juanita Jean is really enjoying watching Perry's self-inflicted wounds http://www.juanitajean.com/2014/04/14/lawyered-up/

Rick, Darlin’, Matlock couldn’t get you off.

You can check some background here, but it appears that Governor Perry might be in some manner of trouble and whatnot over threatening a public official when he got all “Me jogger. You Coyote.” on District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg.

The bottom line is that Perry threatened to withhold funding from the DA’s office unless the Lehmberg resigned. And, yes, that is a whole lot like what Chris Christi threatened to do with withholding Sandy relief funding, but poor dumb Rick didn’t get somebody to do the threatening for him under the table. Nope, this cowboy drew a crowd and threatened her on the steps of the capitol and in the damn newspaper. He is that macho and dumb.

Honey, be kind to both Christi and Perry because they can’t help it. It is some kind of strange chemical reaction between testosterone and Axe Body Spray that causes them to act that way.



The only reason this isn’t drawing as much attention as the Christi deal is that nobody – including coyotes – takes Rick Perry seriously any more.

If there is a trial, I have a feeling that Juanita Jean will be having another caravan heading to Austin to watch this trial. She was at the DeLay trial and at DeLay's sentencing.
