He’s Making a List. He’s Checking It Twice. He Wants To Find Out Who’s Naughty and … No, Wait, Just Naughty.
Rick Perry and his writ twits want a list of everybody who testified at the grand jury before Perry was indicted.
Now, just so everybody understands the game here: Perry is under a two count indictment – one count of abuse of official capacity, a first-degree felony punishable by five to 99 years in prison, and one count of coercion of a public servant. The indictment was brought by a special prosecutor, a man who everybody admits is non-partisan, and the majority of witnesses against Perry are his own staff.
Special prosecutor Michael McCrum last year said he had interviewed more than 40 people before the grand jury indicted Perry in August.
A number of people who were on Perry’s staff during his time as governor entered the room where the grand jury met behind closed doors last summer.
The score so far is 2 to zero on getting the case dismissed by a judge. And when even Tom DeLay says things don’t look good for Rick, you know there’s a problem.
I have some help for Rick. So you want to know who testified before the grand jury? Everybody, Babe, everybody.
