Can You Die Of Schadenfreude Overdose?
July 2, 2015

We have a Republican attorney general in Texas who goes by the name of Ken Paxton. We might be seeing that change soon as he will be known as Stinky Dwayne’s Cellmate.

The criminal investigation against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has taken a more serious turn, with special prosecutors now planning to present a first-degree felony securities fraud case against him to a Collin County grand jury.

Special prosecutor Kent Schaffer said Wednesday afternoon that the Texas Rangers uncovered new evidence during the investigation that led to the securities fraud allegations against the sitting attorney general.

This would not be near as much fun if —-

—Paxton was not the most arrogant man among highly arrogant men. Honey, he can strut sitting down.
— Paxton had not advised county clerks in Texas to violate the order of the Supreme Court in gay marriage.
— Paxton had not led a life of larceny.
— Paxton had not won with straight Republican voting, defeating one of the most ethical lawyers in Texas.
— Y’all, he’s just a jerk.

So, if he’s indicted on a first degree felony, that could mean life in prison. That’s not gonna be pleasant in Texas. Stinky Dwayne still holds a grudge against lawyers since his last divorce.
