Arpaio to address GOP delegates at zoo (elephant enclosure at the Lowry Park Zoo)

Joe Arpaio is headed to Tampa, Fla., to hang out with elephants, both figuratively and literally.

Arizona's Maricopa County sheriff, a leading proponent of strict immigration laws, is slated to address GOP delegates during the Republican National Convention -- but not at the convention itself. Instead, his Aug. 30 gig will take place near an elephant enclosure at the Lowry Park Zoo, according to a statement by the Arizona GOP.

Immigration activists are planning to protest Arpaio's event, Univision reports.

"He's wildly popular not just in Maricopa County but throughout the state and the country," Arizona GOP Chairman Tom Morrissey said in a statement. "He's done a lot of for the Republican Party already and we're overjoyed that as always he is willing to join us as we visit some of our 'fellow elephants' while in Tampa."

1. So he's so popular,

He should take up permanent residence there.

14. The bars are to keep Arpaio out so that he doesn't bite the animals. They are more civilized.

7. Bribe the zookeepers

for the elephants to take one huge honkin' dump as Arpaio's opening his fat mouth.

A little bit of laxatives for the elephants to make it even more messy (I wouldn't even dream of hurting the elephants in any way or form)

8. This couldn't have been a better setup!

Late-night comedians will have a field day with this.

Put Sheriff Joe Wants To Be John Wayne but is actually Buford T. Justice to work doing something productive...in the elephant enclosure with a big shovel and a bucket.

11. Making elephants appear with Arpaio is animal abuse.

I love elephants. They are good people. Has anyone told Arpaio that elephants are all immigrants?

12. I will try

I will try to load the cartoon I drew of our good sheriff. Tag line is "It ain't rocket science. If I don't like em, their birth certificate has to be fake.
