Sheriff; Inquiring into President Obama's birth certificate
Sheriff Joe Arpaio inquiring into President Obama's birth certificate

This is not a joke. :banghead:

Even so, Sheriff Arpaio said nearly 300 people have asked him to do some digging.

“I’m listening to my constituents; they asked me to look at it. When I get complaints on anybody whether
politicians or anyone else, I don't throw it in the waste basket,” said the Sheriff.

Arpaio said his cold case posse of volunteers are not investigating, but inquiring.

“They're looking into it to see if there is any smoke there," he said. "Once they’re done I'll look at it and see
if there's any jurisdiction that I have, as a county sheriff. If I feel there isn't, maybe I'll give it to other authorities in the state."

2. They know there's nothing there. But they need to keep the doubts about the President alive
through the election season. This man drew the assignment, apparently.

9. And doubts on that are pretty much resolved, so it's a
stupid issue for the Sheriff to choose to harp on at this point.

3. Arpaio trying to appear relevant.
Is he running for re-election--or what?

5. A bit outside of his jurisdiction
He's the Maricopa County sheriff. Does he really think he has anything to do with Obama's BC?

12. He harasses ALL people of color fairly equally.
No bigotry there, he treats all non-whites badly.

10. Um, Joe...
Donald Trump and his "team" already investigated it. That's when Obama humiliated him by releasing his "long form" birth certificate which they were all claiming would end the speculation. But keep fighting the good fight! :rofl:

18. Nothing about Obama being the Head of State of a major nuclear power?
I guess they figure if they let bu$h the Lesser in there, they'd let anyone, no matter how unqualified, in the office then?
The Presidency of the United States is not like being elected Sheriff, when most any one can run and win, then legally be the Sheriff.

19. I didn't even have to open the thread to see which lunatic Sheriff you were talking about.
Arpaio is delusional and under the impression that he's a United States Sheriff instead of a county Sheriff in Arizona.

He and Trump should hook up. They're a perfect couple.

20. Translation: Arpaio needs the support of the mixed fruit and nut lobby in 2012


... “The Surprise Tea Party is concerned that no law enforcement agency or other duly constituted government agency has conducted an investigation into the Obama birth certificate to determine if it is in fact an authentic copy of 1961 birth records on file for Barack Obama at the Hawaii Department of Health in Honolulu, or whether it or they are forgeries” ...
“This investigation does not involve politics: I listen to all the residents of Maricopa County who come to my office with complaints regardless of what their politics are,” Arpaio told the right-wing web site World Net Daily ...

24. I suggest one of his hot dog investigators phone the Governor
of Hawaii and just ask if the certificate released by Obama is legitimate.

If they say yes, and it is not, it will be easier to prove corruption of an office clerk that of the POTUS, who would have be proven to be part of the corruption, after the proof of corruption is put forward.

Why double up on the burden of proof?

Find some underling who can be bought off and run with it. Just don't ever take it to court where the underling would suddenly face a jail term if they were caught lying.
