Joe Arpaio Pissy About Being Un-invited to Read at Elementary School
Joe’s upset because his screechy bombastic lifestyle of constantly seeking press leads to crazed groupies and a neo nazi fan boi following that Don Black would envy. So what’s he do when a school tells him he’s too controversial to read to students? He whines in a press release and gives his wingnut troglodyte militia fans the address of the school.
What’s the proper way to respond if you’re a government official who’s asked to read to elementary school students, then told you’ve been un-invited because you’re too controversial? If you have even a shred of class, you say “I’m sorry you feel that way,” and move on. If you’re Maricopa County’s self-proclaimed “toughest sheriff,” Joe Arpaio, the obvious move is to cry about it in the form of a press release bashing the school — which is exactly what happened this afternoon.
Arpaio was slated to read to students at the Sahuaro Elementary School in Phoenix as part of the “Read Across America” program this afternoon, but the school pulled the plug on the appearance because, Arpaio claims, there were doubts he knew how to read the sheriff is “too controversial.”
