Hysterical and very effective way to deal with the macho myth of doing time in jail! This has been mentioned here in print before (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1717183/posts). But this video is hilarious (is Katie & Co. trying to be "The Daily Show?")

Damn. He cut the recidivism rate from 31 to 3 percent. I'm impressed.

I don't need to watch this to know it's Sheriff Joe (Arpaio) of Maricopa County.
He should be in charge of border security.

That was funny.
First segment of Couric and the Nightly News that I've seen. No wonder it is tanking. Katie's presenting the pink shoes would have even made a poor Oprah moment.

I had trouble understanding the Sheriff's name, but this jail doesn't look like Joe's, and I see where Texas is in the keywords. Lets hope it is spreading.
