Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio Ups the Ante in Birther ProbePosted on May 22, 2012
Controversial Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio is escalating his probe into whether Obama was truly born in the United States. Arpaio has sent a deputy from his “Threats Management Unit” and a member of his volunteer posse to Hawaii to investigate the president’s birth certificate. The move comes less than a week after Arizona’s secretary of state fanned the birther conspiracy flames by threatening to keep Obama off the state’s November ballot over the issue. —TEB

This buffoon has been sheriff for what seems like forever. I’ve been reading about his outrages for a long time. He’s an attention whore at the very least and probably a a bit of a sadist. That’s all well and good but the fact that he’s continually re-elected says all you need to know about the his constituency. It’s mean in Arizona but it’s a dry mean.

Are Sheriff Joe and his posse going to round up Obama and deport him back to Kenya?
I think the old freak just wants to see Obama in pink underwear.
(Sheriff Joe is an icon in Arizona (Maricopa County.) The pot bellied little twit can get away with any corruption and any lunacy and still get re-elected. If your headed for Arizona, skip Phoenix and go to Tucson or Flagstaff).

Sheriff Joe needs to get back to what he is getting paid for and stop acting like a Fox News ‘journalist’.

See you there Gerard. I hope by then Sheriff Joe will be in one of those electrified pens that ‘pastor’ wants to put gays and lesbians in. The biggest threat to the truth is Sheriff Joe himself. He and all the others like him have had the truth presented to them repeatedly but they just don’t want to believe that someone like Barack Obama is an American. I can see their problem. He’s not white yet he’s well educated, he’s articulate, he’s well traveled and he is an intellectual. To Sheriff Joe he’s not only not American, he’s an alien life form.

I’m very glad that I don’t live in the US; American politics has become a farce, a mockery of democracy. I suppose if nothing else Americans are providing some great humour for the rest of us to enjoy! Now, back to Sheriff Joe and the birthers! LOL

Dear Truthdig: I am a fringe writer, member of a small but vocal grouop of fringe writers and activists. My priority at present is doing research on aliens who may have come here from outer space to do harm to our country. I have news for you: Our Threats Management Office has affirmed that there are people in Arizona who, even though they hold political offices, are really unnatural born citizens from Mars.
Report thisI can’t get into details here, but our Threats Management Office also has ammassed considerable evidence—and this will shock you even more—that white people are not really superior to people of any other color. Just thought you’d want to know. ‘Bye now. See you at the convention.
