Immigration’s Double Standards Between Obama’s Hometown and Arizona

It’s been no secret that the Department of Justice filed racial profiling charges against Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his department. They subsequently revoked their federal immigration badges from Arpaio and his men, thus forbidding them from going into the jails to determine if any of the inmates are illegal aliens.

It’s also no secret that the DOJ’s actions have been directed at Arpaio for his investigation into Obama’s eligibility to serve as president and to be placed on the 2012 ballot in Maricopa County.

Typical of the hypocrisy and favoritism of the Obama administration, we now find out that Cook County, Illinois, the home of Chicago and President Obama, has passed a law forbidding the Immigration and Customs Enforcement from entering the Cook County Jails. The ordinance was passed on September 7, 2011 and to date, no one from the Department of Justice or the Obama administration have taken any action against Cook County nor have they indicated that they will challenge the legality of the ordinance.

I can’t help but wonder how DOJ officials can kick one county’s cops out of their own jail when it comes to immigration issues while another county kicks ICE officials out of their jail when it comes to immigration?
