When I heard that comedian George Lopez did a bit “taking on” Sheriff Joe Arpaio I was expecting something like:
Dayum, Joe! It wasn’t enough to put prisoners in pink jumpsuits dude? It wasn’t enough to make a tent city in the blazing Arizona heat? It wasn’t enough to have a Federal Judge slap your stupid ass?
No it wasn’t. You just keep yapping on and on about those immigrants when there’s plenty of crime you can focus on (regardless of ethnicity!). But noooo!
What do you do instead? … Oh Look !! Obama’s birth certificate!! And you JUST. CAN’T. STOP. man. Over three years in and you’re still going after the President’s Birth Certificate? … dude … The Birth Certificate. I mean, even Trump isn’t hot for that one.
*Shakes head*
[Audience laughs and claps]
Obviously I’m not a comedian, I am a squirrel. You have to sprinkle the above with George Lopez professional humor to make it … you know… funny. The point is there’s plenty to pick on Joe about. Plenty. He’s low hanging fruit; easy pickin. His activities have been a hanging curve ball; home run material, baby. Which is why George’s actual bit is not just disappointing, it’s tragic. The poor bastard is such a tool he completely short circuited. His actual rant on HBO is a perfect example of the shallow Progressive thought pool (and honestly, it reminded me of #Occupy):
Sheriff Joe in Arizona – f–k you you f–king puto. How about that? F–k you. You fat mother f–ker. F–k you. I said I was going to talk some s–t. F–k you Sheriff Joe you f–king puto. F–k you. F–k you.

Very compelling. I wasn’t convinced before. But now? Well hearing an argument like that, and especially delivered with such style and ease? George, you had me at f–k you.
I’m sure Al Franken is already in contact with George regarding a run for Congress.
