Arpaio to miss border hearing to appear on Colbert Report

[DesertRat]

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio won't be attending Monday's border-violence hearing with local and national political figures because of a scheduling conflict.

That conflict's name? Stephen Colbert.

Arpaio said he'd only seen the show once before- when the sheriff accidentally flipped channels from his own reality show- but he had no concerns about handling the comic.

"I was on Larry King (Thursday) night," he said.
