Here is video of Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio talking with Matt Lauer on The Today Show this morning, where Lauer asked him if he worried the state's "image will suffer" as a result of their new Anti-Illegal Immigration Law. To illustrate his point, Lauer showed a political cartoon that had people being questioned in Arizona for ordering Nachos at a restaurant.
Arpaio responded that he did not worry it will hurt the state's image, but instead believes it will help Arizona and attract others to move there. He said by getting rid of the illegal workers, it will open up more jobs for citizens.
Lauer tried turn the new law into a "racial profiling" instrument, but Arpaio did not let him get away with it. He pointed out that President Obama sent Justice Department people to Arizona just after taking office to investigate Arpaio for "alleged racial profiling." It has now been over a year, and Arpaio said they have brought nothing forward against him. Arpaio said, "We know how to enforce the illegal-immigration laws without racial profiling.

With this issue they are very HIGH approval for coming down on Illegal Immigration. Do not listen to MSM and Lauer cohorts on this issue. Liars in the first degree!
Matching wits with Lil’ Matt ain’t heavy lifting.
No doubt it will -- with liberals and illegal aliens. Hopefully most in those two groups will be sufficiently insulted to leave permanently.
Matt Lauer Shows Sheriff Joe Arpaio a Cartoon of Lauer being Profiled for “Ordering a Brain” - Video
Not unexpected. The MSM calls peaceful tea parties “dangerous” and rioting illegals “festive”.
I need Matt’s Social Security number....
I LOVE Sheriff Joe. We need millions more like him.
I’m thinking that legal aliens and Hispanic citizens will have no problem being “profiled” if the result will be a better country for them and their families.
It’s time to LOSE Matt Lauer and MSNBC quislings.
Implausible scenario of ordering nachos in a restaurant with Anglicized menu items. The real lawbreakers order from the thousands of catering trucks where the menu is only in Spanish. Then they leave the wrappers, plastic bottles and containers behind as litter - muy bueno!
Everyone knows they're going to arrest people who eat menudo.
Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio is a hero. God bless him.
Damn right. Sherrif Joe is on the ground and the front lines of this garbage. little matt is off in la la land.
Another case of a person educated WAY beyond his intelligence.
Lauer was in full bore “Critics say” mode this AM, I’m can’t understand why they don’t just come right out and say” In our opinion....”. They’ve become too obvious.
Anybody who eats menudo SHOULD be arrested.
Sheriff Joe certainly has! He is a total no-nonsense guy. When Lauer tried that stuff on him, it made Lauer look silly by comparison. “Drive-by” is absolutely the right term to describe these tactics by the Leftist media.
HaHa! Oklahoma has already been through this when the legislature passed it’s new immigration laws.
The main effect of it was many illegals leaving the state, probably most of them went back to Texas or whatever state has the least restrictive immigration laws.
Lauer keeps his examples simple, so that he can understand them.
