One day late, but still worth a post.
This from a guy who vetoed issuing DL for undocumenteds in CA. Pretty interesting....

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Thursday night declared the new Arizona law cracking down on illegal immigrants “a mess” and something he “would never do.”

The governor made his remarks while in the guest chair of the “Tonight Show With Jay Leno,” a venue he has returned to often since using the show to declare his plans to run for governor in 2003. During Thursday’s interview, the governor also remarked on legalizing marijuana, his inability to run for president as a foreign-born citizen and the smoking tent outside his office.

“That is a mess,” he said of the new Arizona law that directs law enforcement to question anyone they suspect is in the country illegally. “I would never do that in California. No way.” Schwarzenegger said the federal government, which for years has failed to reform immigration laws, is to blame.

“It's irresponsible,” he said of the failure of Congress and the White House to pass new immigration laws. “We have all this stuff. We have the daily crossings. We have the crime. We have the guns that are being transported down to Mexico. We have cocaine and other drugs brought up here from Mexico, and we have human trafficking. I mean, it's a huge, huge mess, and the federal government does not get their act together and have immigration reform so that we know who is in this country, how many people are in this country. Do the background checks, let people come in legally and work here because we need the workers. … What do they do? They look the other way and try ‑‑ kind of like in denial, living in denial like it doesn't happen.”

Lol. I know, that's what I was thinking. But he is blow hard and a shape-shifter just like every other politician.

I remember when he was elected in the recall election because Gray Davis had supposedly done so much to screw up the state, and look at California now--it has become ten times more hopeless than when Davis was screwing things up.

On the other hand, I guess it could be worse--he could be supporting Brewer.
