For blog assignment number eight I commented on Coach Buggs' great commentary on the criminal charges brought up against governor Rick Perry from August 2014.
I agree with you that 109 years without parole is quite a
bit excessive a punishment for pressuring someone to resign from their job. At
the same time I do believe Perry was trying to sway the legislature in the
republican's direction a little more. That is to be expected though. Most of
the people funding his presidential campaign are no doubt republican. When you
are running for the presidency, you are going to want to do stuff to please
your campaign funders. I dislike Perry, but that doesn't make it right to
sentence him to life in prison. One can only take punishment so far.
