I wish it were more than 3 years, but that 10 years of probation in exchange for that is something.

3. He may be allowed to remain free on appeal. I'll celebrate the day he's actually behind bars.

8. Probation is not enough. It is well to have friends in high places.
Joe Dokes would be getting plenty of jail time.

14. It was a state crime; Obama can't pardon for that
And no, Obama would not pardon him if he could; that's kind of silly.

Perry might be breathing easy for the first time in his political life now that he's out from under Delay's thumb, but, yeah, I might look for a pardon right before the end of his term, unfortunately.

13. He'll be dancing quite a bit himself in there
A little booty rattlin' is on its way. He sowed these seeds.

Still, I really hope there's a hell. Too many are getting off the hook due to Obama's complicity in refusing to investigate serious crimes.

22. C'mon let's not use "grave dance." I celebrate the justice done to imprison him.
I just wince at the words "dance on the grave."
