Arpaio Reacts to Attorney General Eric Holder's Comment

PHOENIX - U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder says the Justice Department's probe into Sheriff Joe Arpaio's racial profiling and abuse-of-power allegations "will produce results" -- and now the sheriff is reacting.

Sheriff Joe says the comments made by Holder were careless. He doesn't think the Attorney General should be guaranteeing results before the investigation is concluded.

But Holder didn't seem to hold back when asked about his department's investigation into the sheriff's office. He called it serious and that it "will produce results."

Friday, the sheriff is responding. "You can take that statement and take it any way you want but I think ethically the comment should have been no comment, it's under investigation. When you're saying results will occur standing next to people who have something to do with results, I don't think that's fair."

Holder made the remark Thursday while he was in town for a meeting on mortgage fraud.

The Department of Justice has launched a civil rights investigation into the sheriff's office -- specifically accusations of racial profiling during immigration sweeps.

But now the sheriff says Holder has put federal investigators in a tough spot by essentially guaranteeing results.

"Kind of putting pressure on them to come up with a conclusion against me, I've never heard of that before."

During his visit to the valley, the Attorney General wouldn't talk specifics or say when the investigation would wrap up.

There's also a federal grand jury investigating accusations that Arpaio is abusing his power by going after his political enemies. Several county employees have already testified in that case.

I know Sheriff! Insane how corrupted this administration is! Black Panthers can stand outside a place of polling with weapons, harassing and intimidating voters and nothing is done.

A sheriff on the other hand, trying to save his community from the ravages of illegal immigration by is enforcing the law, ends up being investigated by the Attorney General because the racist- illegal invader proponents are whining!

Amazing how many are fighting for illegal aliens, and then persecuting a Sheriff trying to enforce the law, and protect Americans. Talk about upside down thinking, and speaking.

STOP THE COMMUNIST HOLDER! HE MUST GO! IMPEACH OBAMA!

YEAH, the owners of the country are treated like dirt while the dirt is treated like the owners, while the REAL OWNERS PAY FOR IT TO BE DONE TO THEMSELVES, SORTA LIKE BUYING THE ROPE TO HANG YOURSELF.

Want to see a totally lopsided presidential election? Just find a candidate who wants to jail these criminals and end communism in America, overwhelming victory!

When these communist speak of social justice and economic justice they are basically calling Americans (or anyone with any wealth or savings) criminals. In order to find that someone has been treated unjustly then there must be a party who commited the unjustness which basically labels Americans of any wealth as criminals, by claiming that you have stolen something that rightly belonged to someone else.

This "Justice" Stuff is basically a nice way of saying your a crook and you don't deserve the fuits of your labor.

End PCism, jail the communist and the criminals, end the brainwashing in schools and stop any social benefits after 8 weeks. If you are recieving any social benny's you have 8 weeks, make a plan becuase after 8 weeks, you will be on your own. Of course this would be very possible to do without any outrage if the gov would get out of our lives and stop controlling everything that exist, drop the tax rate to 10% across the board, secure the borders, anforce the laws and America will boom again and people won't want welfare at all. Then maybe welfare will be looked down upon as it once was in this country.
