Today is closing arguments in Melendrez v Arpaio and there just happens to be a high profile raid by the Maricopa County Sheriff’s office on a GNC distribution center. Coincidence, I’m sure.
Joe Arpaio is running his first TV ad of the campaign. Well, the first paid ad. He’s had plenty of “free media” from his attention grabbing press conferences. Anyway, here it is: Notice what you don’t see? Yeah. Nothing about being the Nation’s Toughest Sheriff™, nothing about immigration, nothing about birth certificates… It could be [...]

While testifying at the his racial profiling trial yesterday, Joe Arpaio was confronted with an assertion from his book, Joe’s Law. In the book, Arpaio states that second and third generation Mexican-Americans are separate from the American mainstream. When confronted with this nugget, Arpaio did the brave, no-nonsense and take-charge thing: he blamed his co-author. [...]
A local businessman in Glendale has taken down his sign and replaced it with a sign for Manny Cruz. Where was this love for me when I was running? Anyhow, the press release from the Cruz campaign after the jump.

Joe Arpaio has scheduled yet another press conference for Tuesday to tell all of us what his “cold case posse” has found out about the circumstances of Barack Obama’s birth. He promises it will be “breathtaking.” What’s breathtaking is that this baboso continues to be taken seriously as a political and law enforcement figure by [...]
I resisted writing anything about Joe Arpaio’s arrest of a six year old girl. It’s hard for me to write about the more odious actions of Arpaio. I find when I’m angry, I’ll just write an unhinged rant instead of a decent post. Still, it pisses me off. Here is the sheriff of one of [...]
After Andrew Thomas was disbarred, he saw the error of his ways. He has become humble, contrite even. He’s a new man. I’m kidding of course. Thomas took to KJZZ’s Here and Now this week to blast “corrupt” Maricopa County officials. “Corrupt,” by the way, defined as opposing him. He’s pushing for Proposition 115, which [...]

Here I thought it was bad enough that Daniel Patterson is asserting that he’s the victim of racism, and Andrew Thomas goes and compares himself to Ghandi.
Per the Twitterverse: Andrew Thomas and Lisa Aubuchon disbarred, Rachel Alexander suspended for six months and one day. Once in a while, things work out.
