Stand With Arizona
What a, um, surprise.
Barack Obama's Injustice Department today issued the report we all expected against Maricopa Country, AZ Sheriff Joe Arpaio - just in time for the 2012 election cycle.
In what the AP calls a "scathing" report alleging a "pattern of racial profiling and discrimination and carrying out heavy-handed immigration patrols", the DOJ accused Arpaio's office of "a wide range of civil rights violations against Latinos.""Latinos"? Or foreign nationals illegally in the U.S., 94% of whom ( in Arizona) happen to be of Hispanic-descent?
"Heavy-handed"? Or is that how Obama views the enforcement of Federal immigration laws that they refuse to enforce?
"Civil rights violations"? Or the proper inquiry into immigration status during lawful stops or arrests, as S.B. 1070 and Federal laws, including 287(g), authorize?
Translations are required because this Administration has turned the rule of law on its head. When the nation's top law enforcement branch looks to punish a county sheriff - for enforcing existing laws - it is a devastating breach of trust with the American People.
But back to the "report", which satisfies two of Obama's principal political goals: (1) Pandering to Latino voters to distract them from his immigration failures, and shore up their support ahead of the election; and (2) Continuing their jihad against one of the most potent national symbols in the fight against illegal immigration: Sheriff Joe Arpaio. Eric Holder has been going after Arpaio since the day his boss took office, and today the DOJ continued its attack:
Whoa - let's take a look at who said that. Thomas Perez, the DOJ "Civil Rights Division" head. That's right - the same division that thinks that Black Panthers with batons shouting racist threats at a polling place does not constitute voter intimidation, but that Voter ID laws do."Arpaio's own actions have helped nurture MCSO's culture of bias," wrote Thomas Perez, who heads the Justice Department's civil rights division. "MCSO is broken in a number of critical respects. The problems are deeply rooted in MCSO's culture," he said Thursday. [Video of Perez statement here]
Who is Thomas Perez? He is a former board member of La Raza group "CASA de Maryland", known as "The Illegal Aliens' ACORN". The taxpayer-funded CASA fights for welfare, tuition breaks, scholarships, voting and amnesty for illegals aliens, and makes generous use of the race card to silence critics.
EXCERPT...READ THE REST HERE
I would like Sherrif Joe to ask them to point out where in the Constitution ILLEGAL aliens get ‘civli rights’
DOJ is trying to make white Americans illegal in the US. These Marxists are happyto let illegals in, but they forgot the meaning of illegal is.
The left has truly picked the wrong guy to tick off!
I couldn’t tell you why FRiend. Beats the heck out of me. I’m working two jobs with no health benefits and you’re right, illegals, lets face it— Mexicans can get coverage. This is the kind of crap that starts revolutions.
Or is just possible, “Sheriff Joe”’s establishment has been too successful ?
Recall BATF Voth’s missive to his agents “you can always find work in the AZ Sheriff’s Department for “$30K/yr. “
One has to wonder why Napolitano is headhunting Mr. Arpaio’s band of “low-buck” deputies” that apparently are doing far better work than her 5/6 digit staff ! Not for a moment do I believe the “Civil Rights Violation” accusation orginating from Napolitano’s office ! IOW, “how does a criminal alien - and possible terrorist - suddenly become imbued with “civil rights” ? >PS
The “New” Holder DOJ has already proclaimed its opinion “voting fraud” is a minor problem. Its also iterated its intransigence in opposition to any attempts to investigate any presenting evidence of “voting registration issues”, as well ! IOW, not only won’t the OA investigate cases of voter intimidation, but won’t investigate cases instances of “phoney registration” as well !
What better way to destroy public confidence in the electoral process ? >PS
