Rick Perry Gets Endorsement From Hell
By mario piperni
As if Rick Perry wasnt already facing an uphill battle, hes now getting the endorsement of Arizonas number one egomaniac, Sheriff Joe.
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, a man whos made a career out of bootin brown folks back across the border, is reportedly going to endorse Rick Perry as the Republican nominee for president which is more than a little surprising (if its true, that is), when you consider some of Perrys recent comments about illegal immigration.
According to multiple national news outlets, Arpaio will campaign with Perry in New Hampshire on Tuesday, where he will give the Texas governor a political tip of the cap.
Arpaios endorsement might be a plus in the primary where the GOP base is fond of maniacal birthers and corrupt, pseudo-law enforcement agents more intent on self-promotion than actual crime prevention. But in a general election with a broader-minded electorate, Arpaios endorsement is the kiss of death. Not that any of it matters. Perry isnt going anywhere in this race except back to Texas.
Heres what Id like to know though: has Sheriff Joe, the man who set his posse out to uncover Obamas Kenyan roots, asked to see Perrys long-form birth certificate? And if he hasnt, why not? Nothing to do with skin color I hope.
