Your local sheriff is probably the most important elected official. I will be sending the sheriffs office an email expressing my gratitude for someone taking a stand.

My sheriff is Joe Arpaio. I can only hope he'd make the same choice. Then again, knowing him, he'd probably wait for Obama to visit and try to arrest him.
"We are Americans," Mueller wrote. "We must not allow, nor shall we tolerate, the actions of criminals, no matter how heinous the crimes, to prompt politicians to enact laws that will infringe upon the liberties of responsible citizens who have broken no laws."
Great quote from the article. I have so much respect for the Sheriffs who are taking this stance because it's not easy to go up against the VP or P. They need the support of everyone, not just the people in their county.
I hope our Sheriff takes the same position.
