Schwarzenegger: Supporting Prop. 187 was an error
This site translates this La Opinion article about an (English-language) interview with California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger:
It was an error to support Proposal 187, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger admitted yesterday during a meeting with the editorial board of La Opinion. The state’s chief executive expressed his positions on immigration, public education, the healthcare crisis, and his vision for California, within the context of his campaign and its engagement of the state's Latin community with a view to his re-election in November.
I have three statements to make:
1. As before, grit your teeth and smile! Arnold is better than the alternative.
2. La Opinion publisher Monica Lozano not only serves on the board of MALDEF, she's a sleazy race baiter (on a local TV show a few years ago, she was asked a leading question by Tony Valdez or another of the local reconquistadores whether opposition to illegal immigration was based on racism and answered "yes" in a definitive manner.)
3. The ball-tightener that Maria uses is working better and better.

Arnold was an illegal himself, he came over on a sports-tourist visa & immediately began illegally working & exploiting other illegal aliens, later he gained legal residency, he even leeched off our public healthcare system when he broke his arm & was uninsured.
I saw him in a interview once, he mentioned when he came here there was an earthquake & he got into the masonry contracting business and made "tonnes of money" (while on a sports or tourist visa) rebuilding walls with immigrant labor (illegal no doubt, possibly without workers comp) he invested the proceeds in Real Estate, that's where he got his financial start.
To the state of CA & the tax payers he was a wild success unfortunately the story is not the same for many illegal immigrants, they become tax parasites easily obliterating the contributions of the more successful immigrants.

This is why you don't want to elect foreigners: in addition to worrying about being called a racist, Arnold knows he will also be called a hypocrite if he says anything different -- after all, he's an immigrant himself. Apparently, the prospect of this it too much for him.

I disagree. The lesser of two evils is still evil.
