Schwarzenegger Calls Lawmakers 'Girlie Men'

(Los Angeles, California) At a mall rally on Saturday, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger insulted state Democratic lawmakers by calling them 'girlie men' because they cater to special interests in delaying action on the state budget.
"If they don't have the guts to come up here in front of you and say, 'I don't want to represent you, I want to represent those special interests, the unions, the trial lawyers ... if they don't have the guts, I call them girlie men," Schwarzenegger said to the cheering crowd at a mall food court in Ontario.
According to spokesman Rob Stutzman, the governor does not regret his remark. And, he shouldn't. Any rational assessment done by any rational person has to conclude that California politics is greatly influenced by girlie men. However defined. (via Wizbang)
