Well this comes as no surprise.
Larry Klayman, the birther attorney [1] who is now calling [2] for an armed revolution against President Obama [3], is representing [4] a new group of Tea Party members defending Sheriff Joe Arpaio from a potential recall election.
The Judicial Watch founder is threatening to sue activists [5] who are collecting petitions to recall the Maricopa County, Arizona sheriff. In a video posted by Arizona Nightly News, Klayman ironically [6] calls Arpaio opponents “vigilantes” who seek to “harass” the sheriff and distorts [5] state election law to claim that the recall attempt is illegal.
Poor legal advice aside, Klayman’s selection to represent the group may not be a boon to the image of Arpaio, who is currently under fire for hiring a child-sex offender for his armed posse to guard schools [7], since Klayman himself has been accused of child sexual abuse [8].
