The Arizona taxpayers are paying for it of course. Joe and his "posse" are sticking the bill for their jaunt to Hawaii on the backs of the taxpayers. Makes you wonder who is minding the store in Maricopa county since their sheriff has better things to do than, say, be a sheriff. And apparently this sheriff thinks he is a higher authority than the Arizona Secretary of State.
I thought his cold case posse was voluntary. Are you just assuming tax payers pay for it, or have some proof?
The cold-case posse has spent about $40,000 on the investigation so far, according to the Sheriff's Office. The posse gets its money through donations.
In the past, Arpaio has touted the investigation's total reliance on donated money and volunteers. Arpaio said the volunteer posse is in the midst of a criminal investigation but refused to discuss details or what drove the posse member and deputy to Hawaii.

Why is Arpaio sending his posse to Hawaii (again?) to demand the release of more documents when:
A) He already declared a long form birth certificate fraudulent
B) He already refuses to believe Hawaiian officials on this matter, he believes there is a cover up.
What's the point? Putting publicity aside? Is his posse going to break in the Hawaiian department of health? Are they going to meet up with Trumps undercover investigators? It's been a year now.

Ok, first off...When you talk about a media whore that is talking about someone who takes up a lot of television time. I tune into CNN, FOX MSNBC and have not seen anything lately about this investigation...I think you are talking about another media whore.

One answer is that he knows he doesn't have enough evidence to actually convict anyone,
so if by confronting the authenticity of the physical BC would be able to hold someone responsible.

But now there's news that Arpaio is using public money on his quest to investigate President Obama's birth certificate. Both the Arizona Republic and Honolulu Star Advertiser report that Arpaio sent his deputy, Brian Mackiewcz, to Hawaii in part because of what Arpaio said were "security issues," related to the investigation.
Is your exposure to media limited solely to TV? I think you should step away from the TV and realize that "media" means far more than TV. In fact, the least efficient means of becoming a media whore IS by television. The internet is far more effective.

Or maybe, he doesn't have any relevant evidence at all?

So they declare the birth certificate fraudulent, they believe there's some big cover up involving Hawaiian health officials, and yet they go to Hawaii anyway to demand, without authority, that they want to see the actual birth certificate, believing already that there is some cover up going on.
Does this make sense to you?

Makes sense to me. What authority are you refering to?
Is this off limits for investigating?
What they expect to find is more forgery,
i would say it would much harder for them to find a false negative with the physical BC, so why would obamabots be upset with this?
Arpaio stands strong and disagrees how the situation was handled in Hawaii. He says he was stonewalled..
If i supported Obama i would be calling for his BC to be open to look at at any available consideration, same goes for other high public officials. They don't have a normal job, they are not normal citizens, they are responsible for the well being of the county, and should be subjected to scrutiny.
OF course, no matter how much documentation is released, it won't satisfy the birthers so why worry about them?
HAWAII BIRTH CERTIFICATES
Hawaii Vital Records issues only certified copies of Hawaii birth certificates, which are typically acceptable for passport, social security, employment and personal identification purposes.
Who Can Order?
A certified copy of a Hawaii birth certificate is issued only to an applicant who has a direct and tangible interest in the record. The following persons are considered to have such an interest:
- the registrant (the person whom the record is concerned with);
- the registrant's spouse;
- the registrant's parent(s);
- a descendant of the registrant (e.g., a child or grandchild);
- a person having a common ancestor with the registrant (e.g., a sibling, grandparent, aunt/uncle, or cousin);
- a legal guardian of the registrant;
- a person or agency acting on behalf of the registrant;
- a personal representative of the registrant's estate;
- a person whose right to obtain a copy of the record is established by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction; and
- adoptive parents who have filed a petition for adoption and need to determine the death of one or more of the prospective adopted child's natural or legal parents
