What a great 2012 we Republicans are having !!!
First, Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu announces that he is running for Congress.
Now, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio just announced that he is running for his 6th term in Office.
Patriotic Republican Arizona voters are sick and tired of seeing..Arizona-R.I.N.O.'s (Republicans In Name Only) serving in Washington, D.C. and locally.
John McCain, Jon Kyle, Matt Salmon, Jeff Flake all support...ILLEGAL ALIEN AMNESTY for the 200-300,000 citizens of Mexico, Honduras, El Salvador and Guatamala now living in Arizona who are stealing native-born American's identities, cars, burglarizing homes, committing rapes, assaults on children, shop-lifting, arson (forest fires), smuggling hundreds of thousands of pounds of marijuana, cocaine, heroin, meth and even opium into "Our" State.
The Arizona Democrats in our Legislature, Congress and the whole Democrat Obama Administration are more concerned about "Hispanic Rights", make that "Voters" (let's be honest here Folks and call a spade a spade....Democrats will do anything to get the "Hispanic Vote" including selling America, their own Country, down the River) and getting Barack Hussein Obama (the great "American Apologizer") re-elected this year, 2012.
Our inept Departments of Homeland In-Security headed by Janet "Nappy" Napolitano and the Department of In-Justice headed by Eric "Fast and Furious" Holder have both shown that they don't care what the Constitution of the United States says about the Federal Government mandate to secure the Borders of the States in the Union and insure their "Safety". They are only concerned about "securing the Re-Election" of their boss...Barack Hussein Obama.
God Bless Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu !!!
God Bless Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio !!!
God Bless the Deputies of these two great Sheriff Departments and all the other Arizona County Sheriffs and their Staff and Deputies who "fight the Good Fight, every hour of everyday" to protect and defend Arizona's Citizens.
God Bless the Arizona Department of Public Safety for their wonderful and mostly unrecognized actions all across Arizona stopping the Mexican Drug Cartels and the Illegal Alien Invasion from Mexico.
God Bless the actions of the individual City Police Officers who contrary to their mostly "Liberal Police Chiefs and Union Leaders...go out every day and defend their Cities' Citizens from Illegal Aliens who are preying upon American Citizens thanks in part to their City Hall's..."Sanctuary City" doctrines.
And while I am at it...
God Bless the Patriotic Republicans (and a few, a very few, Patriotic Democrats too...what's that old saying "let's give the Devil his due"...just funning...just funning..lol) in our Arizona Legislature and our wonderful Republican Governor, Mrs. Jan Brewer and members of her Administration for .............."FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT TOO"..and making Arizona the... "Most Patriotic State in the Union".

Talk about a major suc-- kup? your a pathetic Lambe and that 's the bottom line. If you are so proud of all the corrupt Rebublicans here in this state then you have a very low standard of character. Your issue is with minorities mainly hispanics of which it appears you might be part hispanic yourself. But all the gaga words you are using to describe the corrupt repbulicans you so highly speak about probablty hate your guts too based on your last name. They won't tell you to your face but it's apparent that you want to be one of them. People like you that claim to be such patriots are truly the reverse of that. Your posts and letters to the editors in the past show your insecurity as a probable american hispanic.
Eres una verguenza a los hispanos, malinche lambe.

Someone should demand to see the bank account statements for Sheriff's Joe's re-election war chest. Despite all his out-of-state supporters, $6 million strikes me as figure exaggerated to try and scare off potential challengers. In any case, what Maricopa County needs is low-key sheriff who concentrates on high-quality law enforcement, instead of a blowhard misappropriating county funds to persecute people to cater to the racist sentiment. People willing to do dirty, awful work for low pay that none of the racists would deign to do. A sheriff who doesn't abuse the law to punish his political opponents. A sheriff who doesn't neglect serious crimes to concentrate on publicity stunts that harm our reputation and economic interests in the rest of the country and around the world. Arpaio should be, if there was justice, in his own stinking jail. I'll settle for his involuntary retirement.

vato: Beats the heck out of the libs who support illegal immigration to the detriment of legal Americans. Actually, Leon is an American of Hispanic heritage whereas it is obvious that your alliance is to Mexico.

hopefully the people of Maricopa county finally wake up and get rid of this sorry excuse for a law enforcement officer. His record of office abuse has been exposed, we can only hope. let me ask the extreme right republicans... wouldn't you rather have some one in this position, republican or democrat, who provides quality law enforcement to the community? Add this, more and more, he is hanging around and getting into the press with other republicans nationwide. Shouldn't we have a sheriff who concentrates his efforts locally in his community? You are so enammered that every office has to have a republican, even if that republican is and idiot, that you cannot see the forest for the trees. Do you ignore what has already been reported about his office abuse and the money he has cost the tax payers? Oh, I forgot. That was reported by the liberal press and simply not true. Got news for ya, it is.
