Former Ariz. Sheriff allegedly threatened to deport secret male lover.

Is that the Sheriff that blamed Sarah Palin for the Tucson shooting?
The only real question remaining: who played the boy and who played the girl? Lord, this society is sick!
Two rules of Politics:+
Don’t get caught in bed with a dead girl or a live boy.
Babeu may be toast.
What a disappointment this turned out to be. I thought he was the real deal.
Unfortunately, no.
Babeu has actually been tough on crime and strong on illegal immigration.
I live in Maricopa in Pinal county, and AFAIK Babeu hasn’t resigned as sheriff. He DID resign from Romney’s campaign though.
Mrs. Prince of Space
Great. And he was one of the exasperatingly few strong vocal supporters for border enforcement. Now revealed as a sicko.
Pardon me while I throw up.
That’s what I thought.
He is just another corrupt queer cop.
Really..i post from NNY as we speak...
Good burgers
This gay guy talks tough on illegal immigration, but has an illegal alien lover on the side? WTF?
Even the “moderate” Romney threw him overboard.
This dude is finished.
“Babeu has actually been tough on crime and strong on illegal immigration”
Except for his illegal, mexican boy toy.
This guy looks like a total fool..
I do however believe a gay man or most likely a gay woman could win a Republican primary...if they had a strong passion for important issues and didnt spend much time talking about homosexuality. If they didnt build their campaign around their lifestyle, someone could pull it off.
the worst most vicious homophobia they would face would come from the left.
Being FORMER why should anyone care and think its news...former politicans also are not newsworthy...It would eleminate a lot of crappy news...
Except for his illegal, mexican boy toy.

Is it true though?
I do not believe anything out of the LSM anymore. Nothing.
Most people never stop to think about where the old phrase “Caught with a dead girl or a live boy” came from. It came from Politicians being caught with dead girls and live (IE Homosexual) ‘boys’.
The incentive for a closeted or even open homosexual to give in to blackmail is myriad. Thats why Sec clearances were only given to the most ‘stable’ and upstanding - once upon a time. One practically had to out-straight and narrow the Pope to get one. Today, they are seemingly given for the opposite - and so you get compromised/compromisable people in positions they ought not be in.
By design.
Bald headed stooge! What an embarrassment to conservatives.
Yeah. I understand why it was the way it was. The potential for international incidents and black mail was very real.
and still now, it would have to be someone very well grounded and vetted to ever gain trust of primary voters in our party.
Yes, and many freepers here spoke highly of him and the job he was doing -- fighting illegal immigration and fighting crime on the border.
But now they find out he is gay, and suddenly he is the enemy.
I don't understand people here sometimes. The man is still the same guy he was last week.
But that’s just it...HOW can you give that trust to someone who makes such bad choices?
In a world where a single picture (see Anthony Weiner) can destroy a career, why on earth have a candidate for political predisposed to blackmail over his sexuality?
Homosexuality did not stop being a risk to national security, militarily or in the civilian political world just because of ‘PC’. Sure there are and have always been homosexuals in both. And look at Bradley Manning and the hell his little snit fit wrought. Over homosexuality.
They need help, not elected positions. We cannot afford the risk. It colors their thinking on everything.
To be clear, I do not ‘hate’ homosexuals. I just do not want them in charge. We currently live in a world where they are. How’s that working out for the planet? Not well IMO.
“The man is still the same guy he was last week. “
We did not know who he “was” last week. He hid that from us.
Do you continue to trust people that hide things of such import from you? I don’t.
“Is that the Sheriff that blamed Sarah Palin for the Tucson shooting?”
NO, That is Clarence Dupnik ( Stupnik, Loopdik, etc.) of Pima County (Tucson).
So how does one 'fight' invading illegals, yet, at the same time have an illegal gay sex partner. Please dont' tell me this is a 'love story'. AND if the reports are true he 'cheated' on his illegal lover. AND you do not understand people here sometimes.... Geeeeze it was the 'bain-washed' Romney crew that bashed Newt for having "ethical" issues. Even old Lord McCain is NOW worried about 'dirty' campaigns....
Sheriff Babeu stated that the whole article was untrue; only fact was true that he is gay.
His mistake was not coming out in the first place; all this BS in the leftist media could have been avoided. He is a conservative and has a great record as Pinal County Sheriff.
Thank you!!!
So there was/is NO illegal gay boyfriend? That word 'conservative' is next on the platform to get perverted.
Have you seen the picture or the texts? This was an article in a liberal rag.
Boyfriend is a Mexican national; no evidence that he is an illegal.
“Is that the Sheriff that blamed Sarah Palin for the Tucson shooting?”
No, that would be the liberal, Dupnick.
“He is just another corrupt queer cop.”
The extortion allegation is from a story in Phoenix New Times, a hippie “alternative” free paper. I didn’t know that this rich source of pot ads and local restaurant reviews had suddenly become holy writ among Republicans.
“He hid that from us.”
And you’ve never in your life rolled through a desert Stop sign or filed a gray tax deduction?
We ‘thought” he was conservative. The touchy/feely pic atop this thread shows me all I need to see. “Conservative” and “Homosexual” are diametrically opposed concepts.
One can be homosexual and share many ‘conservative’ traits. That does not make you one. Hiding your sexuality from the public when the issue is so charged, is not ‘conservative.’ Thats what liberals do - hide the truth. See my posts above for further examples of why such is a bad idea.
Why, if homosexuality is so great, do so many politicos hide it from their voters? Why not run on the platform? Again, Homosexuality colors everything they do, how they see the world and once elected, how they perform their elected duties.
FR is filled with stories of homosexual republicans who have been outed or are open, who vote, govern et all to the dem standard and not that of their own platform. The Republican/conservative movement has a choice - Accept the reality of history and the effect of homosexuals in the ranks or change what we believe in.
Again, we are currently rife with homosexuality in politics. How is that working out for us? Is America better or worse for their influence on the governing process and laws created?
Answer honestly.
First 'report' I read said the Mexican hired a lawyer to prevent himself from getting deported. If he is here legally why would he be concerned about deportation enough to hire a lawyer? I consider 99% of the media to be leftist anyway.
Sucks....
Ooops.
Are you remotely serious with that asinine comparison?
Sheriff Babeu’s Press Conference...he has a lot of support on his Facebook Page.
Yes, go to Phoenix New Times and read the article and look at the pictures he posted on line and the texts. I am no New Times fan and I am sure they have an agenda. If it was just a scorned lovers comments I would not waste my time reading the article.
Here is the evidence of that threat as published in Phoenix New Times
In one series of texts Jose provided, the sheriff himself appears to be threatening his former lover:Babeu: "You can never have business after this and you will harm me and many others in the process . . . including yourself & your family."
Babeu followed with: "And you say you have loved me? Papi . . . this is no good."
Jose responded: "Good threats. Wont work. Im already hurt me . . . and you didn't care."
Then later:
Jose: "Dont threat me. Thats illegal. Im just speaking . . . true."
Babeu: "You have crossed the line. Better get an attorney. You brother will also be contacted."
Soon after, DeRose sent an e-mail directly to Jose ordering him to "cease and desist."
Babeu contended during the press conference that his attorney was contacting Jose and Jose's lawyer about Jose's tampering with campaign websites, that there were never any threats about Jose's getting deported -- but Jose and Weiss-Riner dispute the sheriff's claim.
I am not sure were our disconnect is here. Maybe generational. I don’t agree with the homosexual agenda, but that doesn’t mean I want them on a political blacklist of some kind.
I am saying that homosexuality doesnt automatically disqualify someone from running as a conservative and winning a primary. Someone could pull it off if they don’t make homosexuality a big issue in their campaign. The liberal gay gestapo on the left would have a bigger problem with it than conservatives would.
In some ways I think it is generational (I’m 46). You grew up in a time where Homosexuality was ‘mainstreamed’ as norma, acceptable and simply a different way to live. Everything you have been taught in school, TV, movies, magazines and peer pressure reinforces that preception.
Now take yourself outside the box. Look at it from a purely fact-based and historical perspective.
ok, now try answering this one question.
“Has the mainstreaming of homosexuality benefited society or harmed it?”
This includes all the Mayors, councilmen, Senators and Congressmen/Judges and their effect on law. Think Gay marriage.
