John Conyers To Hold Basement Hearings On Sheriff Joe Arpaio
2/16/2009
More federal government interference, more violations of the 10th Amendment. Maybe Conyers should investigate himself
House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers Jr. (D-Mich.) and three fellow Democrats want the Department of Justice to investigate civil rights complaints against controversial sheriff Joe Arpaio.
The lawmakers, in a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano sent Friday, are seeking a probe into reports Arpaio has used skin color as a basis to search for illegal immigrants in Arizona.
Exactly what skin color do illegals crossing the southern border tend to have, John? As the saying goes, isn’t this a distraction from the issues that are important to Americans, like, oh, let’s see, stopping illegal immigration?
