Arpaio should be praised

The Spokesman-Review

Second to religion, liberalism is the second-largest and most damaging form of mental illness afflicting America. As a combat veteran and the son of a long history of same, it is heartbreaking to observe that slow, corruptive insanity overcoming America like dementia in an elderly loved one.

Nowhere is this better exemplified than in the incredible move by Democratic congresspersons Conyers, Scott, Nadler and Lofgren, and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, to use trumped-up “investigations” to harass Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio for doing an exemplary job of combating the crippling invasion of America by illegal aliens.

Arpaio should instead be lauded as the example of appropriate government reaction to the wave upon wave of illegal aliens flowing into America. Let us streamline controlled immigration of sponsored, employed immigrants without criminal records, but, despite all the liberal semantic perfume, illegal immigration remains a crime that does immense harm to America, starting with her bled-dry taxpayers.

The politicians named above are either deliberately trying to damage our country, or they’re leftist-propaganda-programmed robots too stupid to know better. Either way they need to be fired or impeached until they figure out what country they are supposed to be serving.
