Sheriff Joe: “Prove It”

Posted on by


Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Arizona, doesn’t mind, apparently, taking on anyone. This time he’s taking on the federal government — an entity with a marked larger whip in its hand than anything or anyone else. From WND Politics:

Maverick Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio is challenging the Obama administration’s Department of Justice to present evidence to back its charge that his office is discriminating against Hispanics.

“Prove it,” Arpaio said in remarks directed at Holder in an interview with WND.

“If Eric Holder has evidence that the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office has engaged in systematic violations of the civil rights of Hispanic, then show me the evidence,” Arpaio said.

Arpaio contends that the 22-page complaint the Department of Justice released Dec. 15 against his office was nothing more than anecdotal and didn’t prove there are systematic sheriff’s department policies aimed at depriving Hispanics in Maricopa County of their civil rights.

Nor was Arpaio concerned that the DOJ might take him and his sheriff’s department to federal court.

“If the Justice Department wants to take me to court, I’m ready,” Arpaio said.

The Obama Administration is taking a hard line at anyone or anything remotely resembling pushback these days and — as BZ readers already realize — the US DOJ under Holder has already taken incompetency and fraud to a newer, higher level.
The largest crux of the biscuit is coming via SCOTUS this March 26th – 28th, when the court has announced it will hear oral arguments on ObamaKare. This decision will either begin to rightly disassemble the Obama Administration, or buttress it in a fashion that could never be done otherwise.
Any rational thinker who believed that former President Bush was Demorat Lite has had to adjust and ratchet their expections markedly down for Mr Obama and his minions of Socialism, who daily place themselves into the proverbial definition of insanity: doing the same thing again and again, expecting different results.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of pushback.
If ObakaKare fails, Mr Obama knows that the pushback just won’t stop.

  1. I have more respect for Joe A. as a lawman and as a man, than I do for most anyone other than my father and grandfather. He is truly a man who does what he thinks right without concern for how mushy-brained progressives might get upset over it.

    More than that, he’s effective. He puts the lie to government policies and shows the proof in the pudding where his techniques are concerned.

    God bless and keep him.

    Good question!

    I am starting to believe that NOmaba and his gang of thieves are planning for and trying to incite a national revolt. How better to grab the entire enchalada of power than to be in a position to declare Marshall Law? When I first started thinking that might be the case, I kicked my own ass for being such a conspiracy freak. With every new move he makes, the more I think I was spot on with my thoughts.

    Surely he has done things that could be cause for impeachment proceedings to, if not get started in earnest, at least to be bandied about in the Congress. This latest move to omit the Senate while they WERE STILL in session was most assuredly an impeachable offense, if not a blatant act of treason. Where are the ACTIONS, we have heard enough words already.

    Back to the topic—if I were the next President of the United States, Sheriff Joe would be getting a new job in the DOJ, or Homeland Security, and Eric Holder and Janet Napolitano would be serving time in HIS jail!

  7. Until recently, my son lived in Maricopa County. Voters there LOVE him, and Joe knows it.
    His job is secure, and he knows the office of Sheriff is one of the most powerful positions in the country.
    Stick it to ’em, Joe!
