Sheriff Joe's Fatal Dose of Irony

Looks like someone finally managed to get Sheriff Joe's pink boxers in a twist.
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio is irate over the circulation of a doctored photo that shows him dressed in a Ku Klux Klan outfit and holding a noose with a Hispanic man in the background.

The picture was forwarded to media organizations Tuesday by immigrant rights advocate Elias Bermudez, who said he didn't create the picture.

"There are certain factions that would like me to go away," Arpaio said. "The more they go after me, the more I'm going to lock up the illegals."

The word 'the' - probably the most important word in the English language because it ties everything together so well. It also serves as a scarlet letter for bigots.
I'm going to lock up the illegals.
Someone call the hotline, we've got a live one on our hands.
