Lawmaker Apologizes for Her Schwarzenegger Remark
2006-10-18
“Bonnie Garcia caused a political ruckus when she told a classroom of La Quinta High School seniors that she wouldn't kick Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger out of her bed.”
Assemblywoman Bonnie Garcia (R-Cathedral City) caused a political ruckus when she told a classroom of La Quinta High School seniors that she wouldn't kick Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger out of her bed. Garcia, 44, made the remark Oct. 10 while she was speaking to an economics class, shortly before she was scheduled to appear before the school's Young Republican Club. Garcia, who is in a tight race for reelection, had been the object of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's ethnically charged remark regarding her "very hot" Latina temperament — a comment for which the governor later apologized. Garcia, who is Puerto Rican, was quick to defend the governor, and he has supported her campaign.

#4  Funnily enough I watched The Running Man last night, one of my favourite Arnie flicks.

In it he stars opposite a Hot Latina Woman (tm) and they get it on!

#3  WC Fields referred to Mae West as, "A plumber's vision of Cleopatra." To her credit, she was one of Hollywood's first woman stars to take an active business role in her filmaking and realize much greater wealth from it than most others.

#2  I think they should go ahead and get a room. All this apologizing is for the birds. Some people are "hot", and damned few would kick a decent healthy appropriately-aged member of the opposite sex out of bed. Sheesh. Damned near everyone in America is a silly lying prig regards sex.

Where's Mae West when ya really need her?

So many men, so little time.

It's not the men in my life; it's the life in my men.

Anything worth doing is worth doing slowly.

I only like two kinds of men: domestic and foreign.

Give a man a free hand and he'll run it all over you.

I've been in more laps than a napkin.

I used to be Snow White, but I drifted.

He who hesitates is a damned fool.

She's the kind of girl who climbed the ladder of success wrong by wrong.

I generally avoid temptation unless I can't resist it.

Too much of a good thing is wonderful.

When choosing between two evils I always like to take the one I've never tried before.

Once, during a trial in which she was accused of indecency on stage, the judge asked, "Miss West, are you trying to show contempt for this court?"
She answered, "On the contrary, your Honor, I was doin' my best to conceal it."

I've been rich and I've been poor. Believe me, rich is better.

I always say, keep a diary, and some day it'll keep you.

It ain't no sin if you crack a few laws now and then. As long as you don't break any.

It's better to be looked over than overlooked.

Maid (unpacking): Goodness, what nice jewelry.
Mae West: "Goodness" had nothing to do with it, dearie.

When I'm good, I'm good. When I'm bad, I'm very good.

Is that a gun in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
