Screw that! How about the federal governenment step in and strike down Davis' illegal law that grants the licenses to illegals. And while they're at it, they can arrest Davis for treason.

I just posted the news. I am definitely NOT in agreement and in fact agree with you on the subject of Gray Davis.
In fact I think that he and Cruz Bustemante should probably
be sharing the same cell on the same charge.

Well, if they did that, they would have to arrest every idiot in the California legislature who voted for that bill in the first place......which sounds like a pretty damn good idea to me.
