Sen. Gloria Romero, a Los Angeles Democrat who's been working with the Schwarzenegger administration on prison reform, told the Bee. "This is offensive for women. It is offensive to gays and lesbians in the Legislature because of the way that term historically has been applied. 'Girlie man' is a negative term. It is inappropriate for a governor or anybody to name-call someone who, whether he likes it or not, has been elected by a majority of people in a district to represent them."

Get over it lady!

Sen. Romero illustrates how idiotic the left is, that she even wastes time on this politically corret nonsense. Maybe she should take it up with Dana Carvey too.

"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, and I want them to make the millions of dollars - if they don't have the guts, I call them girlie men..."

Give 'em hell, Arnie.

This is not offensive to any group except possibly the ones who will not represent what is good for America. "Girlie Men" fits. In fact, I love it. It's about as clear as you can get regarding the WIMPS WHO WIMP OUT FOR AMERICA.

I for, one, am going to take the Gov's advice and become a terminator with my vote November 2nd.

I hope he uses the phrase next month at the convention to describe the Kerry/Edwards metrosexual adoration ticket.

She seems to be the only 'Rat with the b*lls to stand up to Arnie, that makes her more of a man than the male 'Rats out there.

"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,......

Or they represent their own personal agendas. State Senator Jack Scott, (D-Glendale), has made firearm ownership his own personal cause. Scott's son was killed in a careless accident with a firearm. Now everyone must pay for Scotts grief. California must be punished for Scott's loss. Not just the ignorant fool that had to "play" with a loaded gun.

And Scott's not the only Sacramento politician that has a personal agenda. Even some Republicans don't know when to leave a personal matter at home when they are serving in the State Capital.

'Girlie man' is a negative term.

Thanks for the clarification. I thought it was a compliment at first.

They're offended at being labeled homos and metrosexuals. The Democrats need to grow up and get a life!

With the leftists in California, there's no telling what is and isn't considered a negative term. If he had called them "enviornmental pollutors" there would have probably been even more outrage.

"This is offensive...."

This from a woman who makes a regular habit of verbally abusing anyone who comes before her committee and gives testimony she doesn't agree with.

"Takes one to know one", babe....

Why would homosexuals be worried about being thrown out of office just because they advocate court ordered acceptance of a private sex act.

Time to amend the Constitution...I'd like to see the Governor of California get his chance to run for the WH one day. There are plenty of "girlie men" Dims in D.C. for him to take on.

Yeah, I didn't think Arnie was calling legislators gay, I assumed he was calling them metrosexuals.

People in California take themselves far too seriously LOL.
