You have probably heard by now that Texas Gov. Rick Perry has been indicted on charges that he abused his executive power, since the news media is all too happy to tell you about it. If you've never heard the expression that a grand jury can indict a ham sandwich, it basically means that indictments don't have to be based on much. You get an overzealous prosecutor, or one with an agenda, and you can get an indictment. It doesn't mean you'll ever get a conviction, and in this case they certainly won't.
