Feds close criminal investigation on Ariz. sheriff
2012-09-01
Not just any sheriff, but Sheriff Joe Arpaio. It seems he and his people are not crooks after all, just as they'd said all along, though the Justice Department waited until 5 pm on the Friday of a holiday weekend to say so. Incidentally, Sheriff Joe is currently running for re-election.

#12  Romney's first day in office, he needs to demand the resignation of EVERY attorney in the DOJ (which he can do, since they're political appointees).

They can reapply - if they want.

He can re-hire - if he wants. (And that needs to be a BIG if in many cases.)

#7  I just don't know how the DOJ couldn't have found something wrong here. Sheriff Arpaio has been brazenly attempting to enforce the law for years now.

#6  Time to go through the DOJ, IRS, and DOS, among many others, to remove the cancers that have settled in. I'd suggest right after President Romney gets inaugurated.

#5  Might be a realization what they don't have anything, even remotely, resembling a case.

#4  Might be a peace offering because of the AZ Fed office ties to Fast and Furious. You don't need to be a weatherman to see which way the wind is blowing.

#3  Might be a peace offering so the GOP doesn't investigate the chicago machine.

#2  Another article mentioned that the Sheriff learned of the investigation's closure while in attendance at the RNC. If correct, this is a very good indicator of R&R's intentions.
