Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio says he will continue his controversial "crime suppression operations" despite a Department of Homeland Security decision to strip him of authority to arrest suspected illegal immigrants based solely on their immigration status, the East Valley Tribune reports.
“It’s all politics,” says Arpaio, sheriff of Maricopa County.
Arpaio will still have the power to check the immigration status of people booked by his officers, but not the authority to conduct street patrols looking for illegal immigrants.
His “crime suppression operations” are saturation patrols in designated areas where deputies would find illegal immigrants by stopping them for traffic infractions and minor violations, the paper says.

After deciding to cut back on border agents. This comes along. Do they really care?

No.
Next question.

Good thing there's nothing she's done that ol' Joe can't get around very easily.
How Orwellian. The head of the Department of Homeland Security has a problem with enforcing our border and immigration laws. Incidentally, War is Peace and Freedom is Slavery, comrades.

Did we expect anything different from her based on her prior record? Everything she does seems to be in the worst interests of this country, pretty much following in the footsteps of her boss.

When one realizes that the Obamination isn't doing things to further the interests of the United States of American, but to further the Democrat Party's control over the interests (and people) of the United States of America, it all makes sense. Remember Rahm Emanuel's statement how "one should never let a good crisis go to waste?" If they let enough illegals in to the country, a few things will happen: 1) The health care/social services systems of the country will be overloaded. 2) The possibility of a real, no-shit terrorist (or terrorists) getting into the country is driven through the roof. 3) Enough people are going to say, "No more!" And there will be a no-shit uprising. Any one of these three would be termed a "crisis." Combine two of them, it's a huge one. All three? :o :o :o It's on! There will be a lot of dead people when all is said and done.
What can we do about it? There's 2010, when I think very near 100 seats in the House of Representatives will change from Democrat to Republican. 12 Senators, too. 2012 is coming, too . . . which will begin a long, long period of conservative dominance.

Yeah they swear an oath to protect this counery and sell it out at every convienance to them. ****ing Dems need to be voted off the damn island.

Ya can't solely blame this shit on the Dems.
Who else failed to secure our borders from the southern invasion?
Nixon, Ford, Reagan, and both Bush's.

True, but this administration is actively trying to hamper local efforts at controlling the border. Just recently they announced cutting the number of border guards.

True, and I don't have the words to express how much that shit pisses me off.
The current oval office asshat is doing more to destroy the US than any previous president in the history of the republic bar none.
IMO.
But on the plus side, he is going about it in such a blantant manner that normally apathetic folks are sitting up and taking notice. They are not only saying "NO", they are saying "NO ****ING WAY" in large numbers.
In the long run it might be a good thing. For the last 4-5 decades there has been an incremental drift toward socialism.
Obama came along and went whole hog. Folks are now paying attention. This could be a net gain.

Only if the Republicans find their backbones, and do everything they can to slow the socialist movement. There is some news that some republicans are going to cave on healthcare.

She had the same problem when she was the Governor of Arizona.

I don't like the fact that we have Sheriff Joe TRYING to do his job and then we have the head of DHS undermining him and many others. It's like they don't WANT to crack down on illegal aliens.

I gets better. Nappyliltano wants to release illegal aliens and put them into converted hotels and nursing homes.
CNSNews (http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/55140)
(CNSNews.com) – Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano announced Tuesday that she is pursuing plans to remove some captured illegal aliens from “prison-like or jail-like circumstances†and put them in converted hotels and nursing homes.
“To better manage detention operations, ICE will develop a risk assessment and custody classification, which will enable detainees to be placed in an appropriate facility,†DHS said in a statement. “ICE will pursue detention strategies based on assessed risk and reduce costs by exploring the use of converted hotels, nursing homes and other residential facilities.â€

For many years, democrats have seen illegal aliens not as a threat, but as potential democrat votes.
That view is the basis for every position they take.
As long as you understand that, then nothing democrats do regarding immigration is a surprise.

And the Republicans see the immigrants, both legal and illegal as a cheap source of labor. We're screwed.

Not a surprise to me. It just pisses me the **** off.

Which is one of many reasons I no longer belong to the GOP.
