Arpaio to examine Obama’s birth certificate…the Maricopa County clown show continues

Arpaio to examine Obama’s birth certificate
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio says his office will examine claims by a “tea party” group that’s questioning the authenticity of President Barak Obama’s birth certificate.
Arpaio says Friday that he’ll determine whether he has jurisdiction for such an investigation or whether another agency should handle it.
Arizona Democratic Party spokeswoman Jennifer Johnson says the examination is a publicity stunt and that Arpaio should instead focus on clearing his county’s backlog of criminal warrants.
COMMENTARY: The residents of Phoenix and Maricopa County like to see themselves as superior to us Baja Arizonans.
But Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio is Exhibit Number 1 that there are a lot of crazy people up north…Arpaio obviously…and those who elected him.
Arpaio is not a law enforcement officer. He is a one man clown show.
Obviously since most of Maricopa County is urbanized and law enforcement is actually provided by the many cities and towns up there, a county sheriff really doesn’t have much to do up there. He doesn’t have that many roads to patrol to nab speeders on.
Running a jail is one of a county sheriff’s jobs…and Arpaio is being investigated for civil rights violations in his jail system and for mispending jail money.
Apraio’s office is being investigated for all kinds of abuses…financial, political and racial.
Apario is nationally famous for harassing illegal aliens to gain publicity.
He gives media folks who interview him autographed pink jail uniforms.
Apraio makes fools out of all Arizonans.
What business is it of his to “investigate” Barack Obama’s birth certificate?
Just another publicity stunt.
Maybe there are people in Maricopa who have had their fill of Clown Show Joe and will start a recall against him.
At minimum the guy needs a muzzle.

Joe Arpaio & Russell Pearce & company make a good circus in Maricopa county, be glad folks in Tucson don’t have such a circus and clown act, now Russell Pearces son Deputy Pearce under Arpaio thinks a democrat using county air station is a thief, and major crime issue, no wonder old Arpaio has no time to fix his county jail medical issues costing the county millions in lost civil judgments, not to mention the scandalous civil suits the citizens of maricopa county been paying to keep this Arpaio pink underwear circus going!

“be glad folks in Tucson don’t have such a circus and clown act” ??? I submit for your consideration the Tucson City Council and the Pima County Board of Supervisors.

different kinds of really bad theater. The Tucson/Pima actors are staging a drama called “bad government” but at least not gaining national attention.

A psycologist/psychiatrist might make a good analysis of why Arpaio and his henchmen find some pink male underwear therapy as humorous, worth while, one see’s two of his male commanders disgraced, fired for alleged romance on the job, does this male pink underwear indicate a gay conspiracy in old Arpaio’s background or is he a marquis de sade devotee in secret? One knows the story of old FBI icon J. Edgar Hoover having a love for wearing female clothing in private don’t you?:-) I hate to say it but anyone male or female who likes seeing men in girly pink underwear needs some serious mental health care/treatment in my book, it sounds to much like sado sexual dysfunctionality to me and I am no psychiatrist/psychologist just a man with common sense and normal thinking!:-)

All Pima county residents right, left or middle of the road ought to be thanking their lucky stars they are not paying for the circus in Maricopa county!:-)
August 20th, 2011 on 10:39 am
true…but we’re paying for a different political show called “bad government”.

What a bunch of tripe…….You really should seek medical attention ASAP.

Guess it must be sad to be a republican minority in Pima county, whine, cry, change your name to tea partier but sorry if your looking for a ad hominem tit for tat exchange try your local watering hole, bet the bartenders is paid well to listen, and if your really lucky you might engage a fellow patron and issue some ad hominem comment and get a nice black eye!:-) No doubt that is why you troll the net, looking for conversation, safe, chicken hawks like to be safe!:-)

I venture a bet if one counted the costs of Arpaio $44 million in lost civil judgments last time I saw a figure, $100 million misappropriated funds set aside for jail operations spent on legal fees attacking and defending himself in his legal issues with Maricopa county officials, and one has to be a accountant to figure the unsettled, undecided pending civil law suits which range from minor civil rights issues to major wrongful death in custody issues, no Pima county is not perfect by any standard but no three ring circus like Maricopa county!:-)

The problem with Pima County republicans is they have not accepted the fact they are a minority, have not figured out how to jury rig the system to win illegally yet, not that they have not tried, they do have a voice in 104.1 FM radio, superman xenophobe Jon Justice, who hosts a parade of right wing icons he has been hawking for the public to buy! He is batting a low average though!:-) Guess the fact he got fired from his Michigan gig where he pulled a fake drowned dog scam to try and improve his ratings backfired, proving one thing I feel about Arizona its a magnet for the ne’r to do wells from all over the USA seeking their fame and fortune and them every comical xenophobes dreaming of their race wars patroling the desert playing rambo wana-be’s like JT Ready, Neo-Nazi commander and cook out buddy to Russell Pearce and company! Pima county is fortunate, the looney tunes often end up shooting themselves in the foot, or another old analogy is give them enough rope they tend to hang themselves!:-)

The only consolaton for Arizona in general is 35% or there abouts registered republicans, 31% or so registered democrats, remainder independent and minority party registered, which means at best Arizona is barely more than 1/3rd GOP, no mandate or majority only in their delusions of grandeur and how often they can fool the non-GOP voters they have the right wing snake oil to cure all that ailes you!:-) That fact is like the old western peddler who sold it, it was mere syrup laced with a bit of whiskey, might have given you a nice fuzzy warm feeling, maybe a bit tipsy if you drank enough, but it cured nothing!:-)

I guess that the residents of Tucson would rather have Sheriff Dipstick…screwing everything up than having a good sheriff like Joe Arpaio who actually does his job….Most of you obviously don’t realize how much power that a county sheriff actually has…first, he is the top police officer in the county..and that power even supercedes the feds…he can order the FBI out of his county, and he can investigate anything that he wants to…including Obummer’s eligibility….He will turn the results over to the Governor, the State attorney, and the State secretary of state, who will determine4 if Mr. O is even eligible to to be on the ballot….It is great that we, in Maricopa at least have a sheriff that knows the law, and is not a punch card for the Illegals that are infesting America.

One has to love the delusional republicans in Arizona, they seem to forget politics is cyclic, we do have cycles of republicans running state government and then cycles of democrats running state government, its a fact of life in a state with 1/3rd or so repulbicans and 2/3 not, sorry you folks have no super majority or mandate from majority of Arizonians, merely like the weather some times its sunny, sometimes not, sometimes it rains sometimes not!:-) Being retired military I don’t really care who runs the state, my life is good whether the republicans run it or the democrats, now you sad sack ne’r to do wells who came to Arizona during the 2000 boom, bought them over priced homes, sitting in them upside down mortgages who have not yet been evicted in foreclosure, but are desperately trying to short sale yourself out from under them floating mortgage interest rates you bought into which now have doubled and trippled your montly payments can whine, cry till the cows come home, but the good thing is all these whining unemployed, under employed ne’r to do well migrants from all over the USA will eventually run out of unemployment/welfare benefits and go home whence they came and make mischief there!:-) No 2% truly rich folks troll these news sites, only them paper rich ones who are in the 98% of us in America who are a mere 2 pay/dividend/annuity/pension check away from homelessness and poverty, the paper rich are funny, entertaining thinking if they claim to be in that 2% we will believe them, I like to call them interent identity fakes, one can claim anything on line does not make it so!:-) Angry, unhappy folks are easy to spot, often obsessed with ad hominem personal attacks on line by name, cannot argue a point so they use innuendo, name calling like a child in a school yard!:-) Pima county is democrat dominated, northern Arizona republican dominated, its just the way it is! Live with it or move north!

Isn’t it amazing that things have gotten so out of whack in this country, citizens have to go to the local county sheriff to get things done. A tip of the hat to the Surprise Tea Party and Sheriff Joe Arpaio.

If RH is against it, I’m for it. Go for it, Joe!
August 21st, 2011 on 7:35 am
The good thing is you have one vote, I have one vote, and republicans are minority in Tucson/Pima county, so be against what ever trips your trigger!:-)

Do you think that the birth document released by Obama on April 27th put an end to speculation about Obama’s ineligibility?Gallup Poll, May 5-8, 2011, after release of fake birth certificate: 47% of those surveyed, less than a majority, say they believe the president was “definitely” born in the United States.
http://thesteadydrip.blogspot.com/2011/06/do-you-think-that-birth-document.html Scientific Poll: Half of Americans would like Congress to investigate Barack Obama’s eligibility. Nearly that many believe the definition of the constitutional term “natural born citizen” means both parents must be U.S. citizens.
