Excerpt....
On Thursday Eric Holder and the Department of Justice filed suit against Arizona’s Maricopa County Sheriff’s office run by the outspoken and flamboyant Joe Arpaio who’s made it a personal crusade to uphold U.S. immigrations laws when the feds won’t.
Eric Holder and the Obama Administration are applying the full weight of the federal government’s resources into trying to stop the new Arizona immigration law, but that’s only one of the multi-front attacks they’ve setup to make sure states are stripped of their ability to enforce U.S. immigration laws. Now the DOJ is suing the most active and largest sheriff’s office in Arizona (Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s office has 189 officers) by extending an investigation into alleged civil rights violations.
Back in March of 2009 the DOJ informed sheriff Arpaio that a probe was underway to investigate what the DOJ claimed were “alleged patterns or practices of discriminatory police practices and unconstitutional searches and seizures.” This is where things get sticky for Eric Holder and the Obama Administration.
Six months prior to this investigation the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) had already conducted its own investigation of sheriff Arpaio’s office and not only gave it a clean bill of health, they actually gave a raving review. The report said things like “The OI and DRO supervisors consider the conduct and performance of the MCSO … officers to be professional and meeting the requirement of the MOA.” And that they considered the working relationship between the feds and the sheriff’s office to be “excellent” and that cases brought by the sheriff’s office to be “high quality.”
The DOJ then got caught with its pants down when more government ......

Arpaio is looking into the Obama eligibility issue. Holder is trying to protect his mob boss.
Amen to your tag line.
I pray for a day of reckoning for the criminals currently running our country.
The DOJ is the “Just Us Department”.
BWAHAHAHAHAH!
Go, Sheriff Joe!
Bump!
Arpaio is looking into the Obama eligibility issue. Holder is trying to protect his mob boss.
emails hinting at this being a politically motivated case....Hell, let’s go ALL out and say it is a racially motivated case. “Fat ol’ dumb ass Cracker needs his ass brought into the ‘hood.”
Gingrich/Arpaio 2012!
I think there were a couple gummits around the late 30s that used these tactics?
Merry Christmas
Arpaio endorsed Rick Perry.
Hey Eric,

December 20, 2011 Syria Sets Death Penalty for Terrorist Arms Smugglers VOA News Syria’s state-run news agency says President Bashar al-Assad has issued a new law allowing for a death sentence for anyone found to be distributing arms to terrorists.
Wellllll, Sheriff Joe investigates Barry. Barry then investigates Sheriff Joe. The good Sheriff must be getting too close to something. I’m hoping Sheriff Joe is too high profile a person to just disappear but as corrupt as this regime is you never know. Watch your back and give ‘em hell Joe.
The have obviously singled him out because he is white.(sarc-holder’s fast and furious defense)
Joe is the last person I think of when I hear the word ‘flamboyant’
I don’t deny that this is politically motivated, but Mr. Perez of the DoJ Civil Rights Division has investigated nearly 35 police departments nationwide to try to discover a pattern of discrimination against Hispanics.
The MCSO case is just the most obvious investigation.
excellent post, good heads up.
For many years we lived in unincorporated Maricopa County, under the direct jurisdiction of MCSO. We were not impressed, to say the least. We now live in another county for several reasons, one of which is Arpaio.
That being said, I think Holder and Obama may have bit off more then they can chew. If I recall, Arpaio was a former DEA agent from Chicago. He knows how to play the game. He’s older and has had a lot more practice at it. He can be a very nasty enemy. And one thing he has that Holder and Obama do not - charm.
I personally know of situations where Arpaio has flat out sided with Feds (ATF specifically) over a whole community. I find it interesting that he’s now at war with the feds. Even though I have a low opinion of Joe, I hope he kicks Holders behind. I hope he doesn’t cave.
