Disgusting.
Yes it was disgusting when they tried to put the 85 year old man in jail for enforcing the law. The charges were nothing more than a political stunt witchhunt by a far left liberal judge. If Joe had been tried in a jury trial...there would have been no need for a pardon.

You need to do some reading up on the guy. He kept jail conditions like POW camps.

They tried to put him in jail for disobeying a federal order for years. Never dreamed you'd put someone above the law. Sad!

********.......that order was also made by a far left liberal judge that tried to legislate. Joe was not above the law....he was the law.

Did he not have appeal rights? Could he not go through the legal system like every other citizen? Nah, I think we should reward everyone that disobeys federal orders!!! FU laws, lulz

I am ok with it as the pardon seems to be moot now that the Judge withdrew it.
Ummm...the judge withdrew the sentencing because of the pardon.

U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton cited U.S. Supreme Court precedent in formally dismissing the criminal case against the former six-term sheriff of metro Phoenix known for his harsh treatment of inmates and immigration enforcement crackdowns.

She held off on ruling on Arpaio’s request to throw out all orders in the case, including a blistering 14-page ruling in which the judge explained her original reasoning in finding that Arpaio was guilty of a crime.

This is one reason why we can't have honest, civil debates.
What did I say there that was inaccurate? You might argue that the standards don't meet what you would personally consider acceptable, which is fine. That doesn't make you wrong or right, just a difference of opinion.

Mark Rich did and he was a wanted criminal. He gave lots of money to the Clinton Foundation. Sounds like a bribe and those clintons are trailer trash and I'm sorry to demean trailer trash.

I guess you can electric slide over to the absurd.
I think absurd is letting a person of authority openly mock orders from a federal court repeatedly and then pardon him before the meanies sent him to prison. That'll learn em!

Totes agree. In fact I hate all Presidential pardons.

Soooo... we like the legal process or not?

Because the pardon, which we may disagree with, follows that legal process.

Enforcing the law my ***, he was a friggin' Birther who thinks he's above the law, and made a career out of violating about half the amendments to the Constitution. I think his role model must have been Little Bill Daggett.

lol. I don't like that part of the legal process.

You're right. I'll still call out people that support a guy for being above the law. Especially "conservatives".
