Rick Perry is accused of using his power for wrong doing. When district attorney Lehmberg was arrested for driving under the influence, he asked her to step down from her position. However, she refused and he threatened to stop funding for one of her programs. Perry did just that, vetoing the 3.2 million dollars.
While Perry has the power to veto whatever he wants, he cannot do it to just to get his way. For this reason, I think he should be punished because it's not right to disobey the law even if he disagrees with another persons decision.
