Liberal Harvard Law Professor Outraged by Perry Indictment
Eating their own:
"Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz calls himself a "liberal Democrat who would never vote for Rick Perry," but he's still "outraged" over the Texas governor's indictment Friday on charges of abuse of power and coercion."
The charges are politically motivated and an example of a "dangerous" trend of courts being used to affect the ballot box and politics, he told Newsmax on Saturday.
"Everybody, liberal or conservative, should stand against this indictment," Dershowitz said. "If you don't like how Rick Perry uses his office, don't vote for him."

Has anyone posted the Texans for Public Justice's record of filings against Repubs vs. Dems?

I find it hard to believe that some think there is a problem with defunding a PUBLIC INTEGRITY UNIT charged with investigating law-violating politicians that was being run by... a... law-violating politician.

I haven't read this whole thread but am wondering how his withholding of funds differed from when the federal government threatened to withhold funds if La. didn't raise it's minimum drinking age.
