Important to remember that it's a Republican state official, in a Republican state. You won't find a much more perfect example of someone who the law "protects, but does not bind" than Paxton has turned out to be.

On the bright side, Ken Starr is dead. You have to celebrate the little things.

Wait, why are you pleased Kennith Starr is dead? I know it's pretty gross how much detail of Bill Clinton's sex life he included in his investigation (no one needs their sex life that heavily scrutinized unless you've done something illegal), but why celebrate his death? Did I miss something?

I mean, there are numerous people I would consider to be a piece of shit, but I wouldn't celebrate their death. Being happy someone dies is kind of shitty to be honest.

If someone's legacy consists of repeatedly causing harm to others and never showing any signs of being repentant about any of it, then I see no reason not to be glad they can no longer do so.
