And the Schwarzenegger campaign wants a formal apology.

Among the limozine Dems, Davis will be saying that California should never allow a "negger" to become governor.

How far we have sunk into the world of PC. I remember growing up in the AMERICA that was TOUGH enough to take name calling, grade school bullies and being called out in High School. I can't believe how feminized the entire country has become.

If a Republican said what Davis said, the media would have blasted him/her as a RACIST >

Man, this thing is just ugly.

The campaign manager should have regretted Davis' insensitivity and ethnic baiting (as evidence by the comment from the crowd). Instead of demanding an apology, it should be pointed out that is in not appropriate leadership from either party and Arnold will continue to pursue the American Dreams of equality and mutual respect.
BTW, does Bustamonte have an accent?

I can't believe how feminized the entire country has become. This has to do with the fact that it is the illegal-alian pandering born-again-LEFTIST that said this. Srnold has been really great about laughing off his accent and lack of complete grasp of English.
But it points out again how 2-faced the Left is. And Arnold has the right to bring it up.

BTW, does Bustamonte have an accent? If you grew up in the Barrio, you wold recognize the latino-street accent. But as a child, his parents would NOT let him speak spanish at home, so he speaks colloquial, un-accented (if at times ungrammatical) English (btw, he has been AGAINST English-only in schools, even though that very philosophy has put him where he is -- now he wants to have as many illiterates as possible to keep oppressed under his heel) .

It doesn't matter what Davis said because Arnold is an Austrian. Austrians are not federally protected minorities, so you can insult them all you want with impunity. Davis, being a sensitive and tolerant Democrat would never make a such a statement about a black, Hispanic, or Asian's accent. But a white European, they're fair game.

"the 1994 initiative that denied some social services to illegal immigrants but has since been mostly voided by the courts."
Arnie should be PROUD of supporting such a measure -- law-abiding citizens having to pay for illegals is WRONG!

Either Davis isn't campaigning for his own no votes or the press is persuing the anti- Schwarzenegger theme........ My guess is it's the latter....
