Here's the story that sends me over the edge:

CNSNews.com - Justice Dept. Investigates Arizona Sheriff for Enforcing Immigration Law

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has launched an investigation of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office in Arizona following requests by congressional Democrats and allegations by liberal activists that the department has violated the civil rights of illegal aliens.

Reps. John Conyers (D-Mich.), Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.), Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.), and Robert Scott (D-Va.) requested the investigation, and activists groups such as National Day Laborer Organizer Network and ACORN launched petition drives and rallies in support of the probe.

The investigation focuses on Sheriff Joe Arpaio and dozens of officers under his command who were trained through the Department of Homeland Security's Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Agreements of Cooperation in Communities to Enhance Safety and Security (ACCESS), which partners federal and local law enforcement to enforce immigration laws. (The Homeland Security’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement division is known popularly as ICE.)


Now, I know Arpaio is a self promoter, but this is bullshit. The message is clear to local jurisdictions: if you don't want the justice department to hassle you, don't enforce the immigration laws. Don't even send your people for ICE training because we're investigating that as well. And why can four dopey congresspeople, all from states other than Arizona, get a local Sherriff investigated just by picking up the phone? Isn't that the sort of thing the Liberals were always accusing Karl Rove of? And, what the **** does Bobby Scott know about Maricopa County, Arizona?

Under the Obama Administaration you're free to break the law as long as you belong to an ethnic minority that consistently votes Democratic. The Justice Department is on the case. We should not be surprised, though, as this is the logical outcome of the corrupt Chicago mentality that is now running the executive branch. They take care of their friends, they screw their enemies (the domestic ones at least), and they know which is which.
