      Nah, men generally don't share, do tend to make an effort at their actual job description, and they don't run their own tax shelters when they can get their wives to do it.

        Source: Perry Grand Juror Was An Active Democratic Party Delegate During Jury Proceedings


        Rho Chalmers, who disclosed to the Houston Chronicle yesterday that she was a member of the grand jury that indicted Texas Gov. Rick Perry, was an active delegate to the Texas Democratic Party convention during grand jury proceedings. Chalmers’ active participation in Democratic state politics is important because she claimed yesterday to the Houston Chronicle that her decision to indict Perry, a Republican, was not based on politics.

        “For me, it’s not a political decision,” Chalmers told the newspaper. “That’s what a grand jury is about – take the emotion out of it and look at the facts and make your best decision based on your life experience.”

        More troubling, however, is the fact that Chalmers attended, photographed, and commented on an event with Democratic state Sen. Kirk Watson while grand jury proceedings were ongoing.

        Watson was a witness in front of the grand jury. On June 27, 2014, Chalmers shared a photo of the Watson event on a community Facebook page she started called Developer’s Dungeon. “Senator Kirk Watson telling the story of the Wendy Davis fillibuster (sic),” she wrote in a comment accompanying the picture.

        I'm tellin ya.... the Democrats in Austin are EVIL crooked! And the woman Perry singled out is pretty much the face of this evil. And I'm not saying that flippantly --- their party, especially in that county, has been taken over by those who show up at the capital chanting "hail satan", and pushing for abortions even up through the third trimester.
        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          THIS is the face of the Democratic party in Austin, and none of the ... um... "moderate" democrats have the guts to stand up to this.

          And, yes, they actually were chanting "hail satan"

            Maybe the republicans can compromise and give them free sterilizations. That should solve their baby problem right there.

                  Civilian employees that work for the US Army, or on an Army base. Like the cashiers in the PX, or various other vendors, or road and construction crews, etc.

                    They are civilians employed to work with the Army but are full time permanent government employees. I am a contractor, but my boss is a Government Civilian. Their pay scale is on the General Schedule, and they get retirement benefits from the government.
