Dear Reverend Sharpton:

I have read about you with much interest since learning of the protest you plan to lead against me in Maricopa County in June as a way to force my resignation or removal from office.

Your public proclamation leads me to the conclusion: not only do you not understand Arizona; you also do not understand democracy. As the elected Sheriff who, so far has been elected to five consecutive four-year terms, I answer to the four million residents of Maricopa County. I do not answer to the whims of the media, or locally and nationally elected officials who want open borders and who have their own agendas. Nor do I answer to a publicity hound outside interloper who has demonstrated no interest in looking for the truth before making loud uninformed noises.

While your public outcries are colorful, there are several instances where you have inserted yourself into other people’s affairs without knowing any of the facts. Poor judgment has caused you plenty of trouble in the past and promises to do so again. Most earnest people want to learn by their mistakes. You seem to glory in repeating them.

I would like to help you avoid further embarrassment by assisting in your understanding of the illegal immigration problem here in my county. When and if you do make the trip here, I invite you to call me to talk about these false allegations.

We can discuss how my deputies are extensively trained by the federal government to properly combat illegal immigration and how the laws of this state allow this Sheriff’s Office to question and investigate the immigration status of those people deputies detain in the course of our everyday law enforcement duties.

Don’t make the same mistake made by the four Democratic Congressmen calling for a U.S. Department of Justice investigation of this office. They and other politicians relied solely on media reports and anti-law enforcement handouts that are replete with inaccuracies. They have brainwashed a handful of local residents to believe these lies. Rest assured that the men and women of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office do not racially profile anyone.

However, we do enforce the state and federal illegal immigration laws. And we will continue to do so as long as these laws are on the books. You can parachute into town, stomp your feet up and down and hold more press conferences against me — that is a hallmark of democracy too — but you will not stop me, nor slow me down for one second, from doing what is right.

Before you bring your circus to town and take to our streets by marching against this Sheriff, let’s get you fully informed for a change. Congressman John Conyers did not have the courtesy to respond to my invitation to visit with me personally. I hope you will consider my invitation. Surely, a man like yourself — a reverend — who famously preaches from the church pulpit understands the infinite wisdome of these words: You shall know the truth and the truth will set you free. Let’s talk about the truth, Reverend. I await your response.

Sincerely,

Joe Arpaio
Sheriff, Maricopa County

Steve Vaus – We Must Take America Back

The new anthem for the times we live in.

The official music video for the new song We Must Take America Back by Steve Vaus.


Lyrics

The American Dream has become a nightmare,
Signs of the times are on cardboard on corners in town,
Like a cancer that’s silently spreading,
There’s an unspoken fear, we’re on our way down.

We must take America back,
Main Street to Wall Street, cities and states
Washington D.C., before it’s too late, there’s not long
We need leaders who lead us, not stick us and bleed us,
Then ransom our future, and our children’s – that’s wrong
We must take America back,
As liberty weeps, our forefather’s spin in their graves
Pray God will bless some way out of this mess,
We must take America back.

Lord knows they’ll try to silence our voices
They’ll pretend to be patriots fighting for fairness for all
They’re not even fit to hold office
What they believe doesn’t fit, with freedom at all

We must take America back,
Main Street to Wall Street, cities and states
Washington D.C., before it’s too late, there’s not long
We need leaders who lead us, not stick us and bleed us,
Then ransom our future, and our children’s – that’s wrong
We must take America back,
As liberty weeps, our forefather’s spin in their graves
Pray God will bless some way out of this mess,
We must take America back.

Fight for freedom,
And the soul of the USA
Right here right now
It’s Independence Day

We Must take America Back,
Main Street to Wall Street, cities and states
Washington D.C., before it’s too late, there’s not long
We need leaders who lead us, lift us and heed us
Who stand for what’s right, and stand up to what’s wrong
We must take America Back, now and forever,
With God, in His rightful place
Then He will bless, and protect the US
We must take America back, We must take America Back

Patriot Of The Day: Gov. Rick Perry

“Don’t mess with Texas!”

Gov. Perry Backs Resolution Affirming Texas Sovereignty Under 10th Amendment

Gov. Rick Perry joined state Rep. Brandon Creighton and sponsors of House Concurrent Resolution (HCR) 50 in support of states’ rights under the 10th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

“I believe that our federal government has become oppressive in its size, its intrusion into the lives of our citizens, and its interference with the affairs of our state,” Gov. Perry said. “That is why I am here today to express my unwavering support for efforts all across our country to reaffirm the states’ rights affirmed by the Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. I believe that returning to the letter and spirit of the U.S. Constitution and its essential 10th Amendment will free our state from undue regulations, and ultimately strengthen our Union.”

A number of recent federal proposals are not within the scope of the federal government’s constitutionally designated powers and impede the states’ right to govern themselves. HCR 50 affirms that Texas claims sovereignty under the 10th Amendment over all powers not otherwise granted to the federal government.

It also designates that all compulsory federal legislation that requires states to comply under threat of civil or criminal penalties, or that requires states to pass legislation or lose federal funding, be prohibited or repealed.

HCR 50 is authored by Representatives Brandon Creighton, Leo Berman, Bryan Hughes, Dan Gattis and Ryan Guillen.

“The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a
Republican Form of Government,” and the Ninth Amendment states that
“The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not

Angie Harmon: I’m Not Racist Because I Disagree With Obama

Let’s see if I get this right… if you are a Liberal and you disagree with George W. Bush that makes you patriotic but if you are a Conservative and you disagree with President Hussein that makes you a racist.

Nigga Please! Angie is a Patriot!

“I am ready to concede that Obama’s stupidity and ignorance come from his white half if he agrees to resign and be replaced by one of the many millions of intelligent and competent people of color who have actually held a job before” ~ Never on my watch (Free Republic)

Angie Harmon is not afraid to come out and say she doesn’t like how President Obama is handling the job — but she’s sick of having to defend herself from being deemed a racist.

“Here’s my problem with this, I’m just going to come out and say it. If I have anything to say against Obama it’s not because I’m a racist, it’s because I don’t like what he’s doing as President and anybody should be able to feel that way, but what I find now is that if you say anything against him you’re called a racist,” Harmon told Tarts at Thursday’s Los Angeles launch of the new eyelash-growing formula, Latisse. “But it has nothing to do with it, I don’t care what color he is. I’m just not crazy about what he’s doing and I heard all about this, and he’s gonna do that and change and change, so okay … I’m still dressing for a recession over here buddy and we’ve got unemployment at an all-time high and that was his number one thing and that’s the thing I really don’t appreciate. If I’m going to disagree with my President, that doesn’t make me a racist. If I was to disagree with W, that doesn’t make me racist. It has nothing to do with it, it is ridiculous.”

Speaking of dislikes, the starlet has also had enough of the double-standards in the media.

“I do think McCain would have done a better job, only because I think he has more experience. I also think if W or John McCain or Reagan would have gone and done a talk show, the backlash would have been so huge and in his face, and ‘What is our president doing? How unclassy!’ But Obama does it and no one says anything,” Harmon said.

And in spite of the scornful opinions most of her Tinseltown counterparts have shared on Gov. Sarah Palin, Harmon remains a true fan.

“I admire any kind of woman like her. My whole motto is to know what I stand for and know what I don’t stand for and have the courage to live my life accordingly and she does exactly that. The fact that this woman has made the decisions she’s made and literally lived her life according to that and takes heat for it is absolutely disgusting to me,” she added. “People cannot look at this woman. I really think they’re afraid of her and her morals, ethics and values and the fact that she hangs on them. Is she the most experienced person in the world? But she was running to be the Vice President, so we then put the most inexperienced person as the President. That didn’t make any sense to me.”
