Sister's sheriff is being pushed around by Home land security or at least they are trying to push him around.The self-proclaimed "toughest sheriff in America" has never gotten so much resistance from the federal government.
The Homeland Security Department wants Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Ariz., to stop arresting illegal immigrants whose only crime was crossing the U.S.-Mexico border without document.
Janet Napolitano head of homeland security was governor of Arizona before coming to Washington DC. Could there be some bad blood there?
When Napolitano took the office she promised to safeguard the country from terrorists, protect its borders and strengthen the six-year-old department. It will be interesting to see if she can make sheriff Arpaio heel.

I see you changed your side bar.
I guess Helen's sheriff is well known, but your Berryville mayor is pretty well known too.
I also see you are sharing your watermelon with the chickens.
