Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Arizona is bound and determined to make sure we never forget the embarrassment of the birther movement. Most of us would love to put that ugly little racist blip in our history -- a time when conspiracy theorists and fools alike accused President Barack Obama of not being American. But Arpaio, a sheriff in Phoenix, Arizona, just won't give it up.
Can we say beating a dead horse, people? Sometimes it seems like certain politicians just do things to help out Stephen Colbert, Jon Stewart, and Bill Maher. After all, how else does anyone explain Arpaio's inane and insane assertion that Obama, a man who produced his birth certificate last year, isn't American?
See his ranting [here].
"Forgery or fraud may have been committed," says Arpaio. Ooooh no! Are ghosts and goblins real, too, Sheriff Arpaio? How about the Loch Ness Monster? Do you go visit old Nessie on your days off from enforcing the laws of Arizona?
In all seriousness, this is vile racism plain and simple. In a place like Arizona, it's no surprise -- after all, many politicians there (including Arpaio) hold rather Draconian views on immigration -- and it's disgusting. And it's getting old fast.
For all you doubters for whom book learning was apparently a challenge, here are the facts: President Barack Obama was born in Honolulu on August 4, 1961. He has produced both a certificate of live birth during the 2008 campaign and the long-form certificate last year. Neither has been disproved.
So why is this still going on? Arpaio seems like a joke, but, according to Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt, Republican Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney doesn't think so. Yesterday LaBolt tweeted:
Romney has called Arpaio for his endorsement, his aides called "weekly" and Arpaio was his honorary Chair in 08.That's embarrassing. The fact is, most people agree Arpaio is a few cards shy of a full deck, but here we are still talking about him. Is this an alternate universe? Why am I guessing this guy is the type of person who stays at parties hours after they have ended asking for more chips and guacamole? Dude, the party is over, the ship has sailed, and you are beating a dead horse.
Sadly, there aren't enough cliched ways to say IT'S OVER to make it any clearer to this guy.
Trying to find a good audio on youtube.
SO far, everything I’ve found has craptastic audio or isn’t the right call.
If you listen to “The cat came back,” it will eliminate all other songs for an undetermined interval.
Hae a great day, y’all! SYL

Bobcat kitten not happy with being left in the backyard of this place.
I have a basement...
A K is exactly the same as a °C, but starts 273.15° lower
A °F is 5/9 of a °C, but freezing is 0°C and 32°F
Tom wants to make soft pretzels. Our priest talked about them last Sunday.
Your basement would not be convenient for me, for either food storage or cannibalism.
It has several holes in the floor.
Some may or may not be occupied.
Occupants may or may not be a former roomie who was extremely displeasant.
And didn’t pay the rent.
By now they might actualy like being in the pit.
Nully might have to kick them out of the pit if they enjoy it.
That would be a first.
/ bad joke.
That or any song by Harry Chapin...
