Sheriff Joe Arpaio is asking the Justice Department to investigate the Obama administration -- specifically the Department of Homeland Security, which is led by former Arizona governor, Janet Napolitano.
Arpaio believes he's being unfairly targeted. The sheriff's attorney delivered an 8-page letter to the head of the Justice department, saying the investigation into his department's practices stems from a political agenda and lawyers acting improperly.
The letter details the events surrounding a routine March audit by Homeland Security with senior MCSO officials. No lawyers were present -- and the sheriff says that auditors then shared their information with Civil Rights Division attorneys.
"We are defending ourselves. I'm defending our office, my constitutional authority to enforce all the laws,"said Arpaio.

Way to go, Joe!
No law enforcement officer should EVER be harassed by politically correct pro-illegals due to faithful enforcement the law.
Funny thing is, Joe was not appointed to Sheriff, he was elected by the people who legally can vote.
Last ditch. If you have not noticed, Joe doesn't put up with that crap, he doesn't fold, unlike most of the passive crowd. Also unlike many, he is not afraid of the Obama administration.
"But Arpaio said that the mayor’s request for a federal investigation by the Department if Justice is based on “garbage.” “That’s why nothing came out of it, and Congress is basing their case on the same garbage when by asking Secretary of Justice and my friend Janet Napolitano to investigate me. I’m not worried, let them investigate me. I have nothing to hide,” Arpaio told the reporter."

Why is Arpaio worried now?
Maybe he is pizzed that he is under pressure to not enforce the law so that politicians can 'get theirs'.
I mean, you really don't think Obama, W, et al are really concerned about the plight of illegal immigrants themselves, do you?
