HOLLYWOOD - Former Hollywood action hero Arnold Schwarzenegger has caused outrage by urgingAmerica to "close its borders" to illegal immigrants.
The Governor of California--a native of Austria before relocating to the US
in search of success--infuriated Democrats by criticizing the country's
current policy on preventing illegal immigration, labeling the system "lax".
In a plea to America's leaders yesterday, he said, "Close the
borders in California and all across Mexico and in the United States. It's just
unfair to have all these people coming across... and have this kind of lax
situation."
Democrats reacted with anger to Schwarzenegger's comments, prompting his
spokeswoman to clarify the remarks, insisting Schwarzenegger was actually
calling for greater security along the borders - not closure.
In the run-up to the November presidential elections, George W. Bush
called for more immigration from Mexico.
