This could get interesting

The Justice Dep't. is investigating Maricopa County's Joe Arpaio, the figurehead for Arizona's tough immigration enforcement policies, and threatening to sue him if he doesn't cooperate.

Where's the "popcorn" emoticon when you need it? This could make for some entertaining political theater. We may need to replace Eric Holder with Jim Traficante in order for Arpaio to have a worthy adversary in the court of public opinion.

It would be kinda funny to see him found in contempt of court and thrown into the slammer with some of his homies.

That sounds punitive to me. I suppose if you're as tough as he is, you get to be judge and jury too, Constitution be damned.
