Schwarzenegger praises Arizona's "TERRIFIC" border volunteers


LOS ANGELES Governor Schwarzenegger is praising volunteers who are patrolling the Mexican border, saying they've "done a terrific job."

Speaking on "The John and Ken Show" on K-F-I A-M, Schwarzenegger said the Minuteman Project in Arizona has been successful in securing the border. He said "they've cut down the crossing of illegal immigrants by a huge percentage" and he accused the federal government of not doing its job.

California Democrats blasted the governor's remarks, noting that President Bush has called the Arizona volunteers "vigilantes."

The Republican governor's comments came a week after he faced a barrage of criticism for telling a gathering of newspaper publishers that the United States needed to "close the borders." He apologized the next day, blaming his faulty English.

2. Jackboots and eagle emblems must
get him all excited. He ought to be careful praising groups that are just fronts for neo-Nazis white supremist groups and the Minutemen definitely have ties to the Stormfront/Aryan Nation organizations.
