America's Sheriff, Joe Arpaio, Consumer Advocate, Bogey, Endorse Upstart Conservative Challenger Phil Liberatore; Challenger Promises Fight to the Finish to Defeat Incumbent Gary Miller

WHITTIER, Calif., April 30 /PRNewswire/ -- When he's not fighting the IRS on behalf of his clients as head of his firm, IRS Problem Solvers, congressional candidate Philip L. Liberatore likes to go a few rounds at his local boxing gym. And while he's often said he wants to go to Congress to fight for his constituents, Liberatore has recently been endorsed in his race against incumbent Gary Miller by two like-minded Americans who are also always up for a good fight: Controversial Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio, known for handing down harsh sentences to prisoners in his charge and consumer advocate Mike "Bogey" Boguslawski.

"Our nation needs strong credible leadership, especially in today's difficult economical time," Arpaio said in endorsing Liberatore. "We need leaders that will defend the Constitution and will fight for hard working taxpayers and their families. Phil Liberatore will fight to enforce our current immigration laws and complete the border fence. I believe Phil Liberatore is the man for the job."

Featured in Time Magazine as the self-designated "Toughest Sheriff in the U.S.," Arpaio comes from Maricopa County, Arizona where his policies on immigration have given him national attention as a sheriff with tough tactics. His experience includes three years in the Army, five years as a police officer, and several years working for the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. Since his original election to sheriff in 1992, Arpaio has been reelected for five 4-year terms.

"I'm honored to have the support of Sheriff Joe, someone who has so much experience and wisdom to share," Liberatore said. "He is a valuable asset to my campaign."

Arpaio joins Mike "Bogey" Boguslawski, who publicly endorsed Liberatore at the recent Liberty Celebration event, which drew over 500 supporters for a day of giveaways, concerts, and free food. Best known for the changes he brought to consumer reporting in California, Bogey was a key player in the recall of former California Governor Gray Davis.

"Phil brings honesty back to Washington," Bogey said. "He's a born leader with the skills and integrity so many in Washington tend to lack. I've never endorsed a candidate in California before, but I'm endorsing Phil Liberatore for Congress."

A trusted businessman and resident of the 42nd District for the past 26 years, Liberatore believes he will address the many issues facing the 42nd District and the U.S. with character and integrity.  He has his Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting and his Master of Business Administration degree in Finance from the University of Southern California.

The 42nd district, which stretches from Whittier in Los Angeles County to Mission Viejo in Orange County and includes parts of San Bernardino County, is one of the most conservative districts in California with a track record of electing conservative candidates.
