Keller's Poverty Plea


"financially ruinous." sworn by Judge Sharon Keller describing her legal bills to defend against judicial misconduct charges. And it seems as though Keller has also failed to disclose millions of dollars worth of real estate holdings in sworn personal financial disclosure statements. (what is wrong with this lady??!!) Keller's problems seem to just be growing bigger and bigger everyday.

"It leaves one speechless to see so much left out of her personal financial statements on the one hand and then on the other hand to see her making her claims that hiring a private attorney would be financially ruinous."--
Andrew Wheat from Texans for Public Justice

As decently written in the democratic blog Grits for breakfast , the writer makes some interesting points such as how the media really doesn't pay any kind of attention to CCA. Along with that the CCA plays along and stays under the radar. The writer describes how the CCA is not use to having others question their actions or check up on what exactly their all up too. (Kind of creeps me out).

I liked this blog entry because not only does it talk about the injustice of Keller's decision but brings forth other important issues, as if Keller's case opened many doors and by doing so bringing the CCA into the spotlight. What other shenanigans has the court been conducting??

Ideology.

somewhere in the, tejas
My name is Sarah Carpenter, I view myself as and independent leaning to the left a bit. I'm taking this class to futher my knowledge of texas government. I also want to prove to others that the difference between me and other "young voters" , I know what I'm voting for and why. In better words: I don't vote stupid. Not only that, it's very naive to not know anything about your own state's government. I don't have much political backgorund, but i am very opinionated when it comes to war, congress, and gay civil rights. I have a strong interest in history when it comes to wars such as the one in Veitnam and the times of the civil rights movement. So hopfully people can gain an insight into what I beleive and think, Hopfully I won't offend anyone.
