Arpaio lawyer calls Democrats ‘narcissistic imbeciles’
Congressional Democrats escalated the battle over former Sheriff Joe Arpaio Wednesday, filing briefs urging a federal judge to ignore President Trump’s pardon and carry out sentencing for the controversial lawman.
The Democrats, led by the party’s senior members on the House Judiciary Committee, said Mr. Trump was showing his own contempt for the judiciary by issuing the pardon, and could even be seen to be endorsing Mr. Arpaio’s original behavior that landed him in hot water.
Legally, the Democrats said, only courts can be involved in contempt of court cases, and they said by trying to pardon someone for the offense Mr. Trump is upsetting the careful separation of powers between the branches.

Well too bad, he’s pardoned.
So basically, unless the President is a democrat, he is not the president.
Heads they win, tails they win.
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.
More winning
Bradley Manning? No problem.
Marc Rich on a quid pro quo deal? No problem.
Puerto Rican terrorists? No problem.
A guy who was enforcing the law? Problem.
I checked an there are NO LIMITATIONS in the constitution on the power of the president to pardon.
Sucks to be them (dems).
Ha ha ha...
POTUS has plenary (sweeping, basically unlimited) power of the pardon.
Shut your pie holes, rats. It’s done, you have no standing in this. Bwah hah hah!
Does this mean Chelsea Manning can still be sentenced?
The complainer should heed the warning on the radio: “Consult medical attention on an erection lasting more than four hours...”
The Dems can demand that the sun turn purple if they want. It’s just as likely.
Ha ha ha...
Post of the day! LOL!
The president’s power to pardon is absolute, unlimited and unrestricted.
Libtards are called libtards for a reason.
Bump! LOL!
The Democrats, led by the party’s senior members on the House Judiciary Committee,
Why are there ANY Demonrats on these committee’s?? Every Demonrat that signed on to this should be stripped of all assignments and all privileges suspended for being ILLITERATE and Unable to Read the very document they swore an oath to uphold
What would they get it? The media pop culture complex still give them all the power and supports their views more than anything else. Not to mention the Senate Republicans in particular allow them to run the Senate.
The last Democrat President was not President under our Constitution.
He is ineligible.
His father was a foreign national making him a British subject at birth, not a natural born citizen.
Or this one:
Obama granted her clemency. Less than a year later, she’s going back to prison.
