Texas A&M suspends professor accused of criticizing Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick in lecture

3. That's the same John Sharp that was the Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor in 1998 and

2002. He was appointed chancellor at Texas A&M by Rick Perry. Sharp was not looked upon very favorably by state employees while he was comptroller and I was tempted to leave my ballot blank for the general election races where he was the Democratic candidate because I feel like he is a DINO who slashed budgets and programs just like a Republican. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that Sharp isn't standing up for the professor. That opinion is based upon my experience as a leader of a state employee's group and also being friends with someone that worked in the Comptroller's office while Sharp lead the agency.
