My point, I believe, is that the facts aren't so simple.. You see, most of the anti-semitic and racist rhetoric your article refers to comes from a splinter faction of MEChA, called La Voz de Aztlan. That group, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, has a membership of twelve - and Bustamante is not among them. It looks suspiciously to me like you're cherry-picking your facts to support your own preconceived notions. The fact that you elected to provide evidence from a hard-right rag noted for its only nodding acquaintance with the truth and for being funded by an even harder-right zillionaire nutjob is rather telling here.

I assume that you have an alternate interpretation? They're your words. They were offered with ample context attached. Are you telling me here that I've misinterpreted your stance based upon the context in which it was uttered? Hmmm. If that's the case, perhaps you'd be willing to rethink your stance on Bustamante with regard to the context in which it was presented to you.

And you presume to know enough about Cruz Bustamante's background to call him a racist? You're not being very consistent, you know.

I can assure you that the people who know Cruz Bustamante are laughing at you in turn.

Maybe now you see my point. You reacted to my post precisely the way I thought you would, and in so doing exposed the hypocrisy of your stance. I'm still waiting for any real evidence to support your claim that Cruz Bustamante is a racist.

Meanwhile, I'd love to know why you, a drug-free person, choose to support someone who has bragged about using hashish and other drugs.

I love how people get all pissed off about what I have to say.

Obviously you haven't read everything about Bustamante. You gave me no evidence that he isn't a part of the group that was in the article I posted. I don't take back what I said about the Middle East. It's not an issue about race. It's about terrorism!!!! So don't even say it's an issue about race. Maybe it is for you, not me.

I don't agree with many things that Arnold or any of the other candidates have done. I get pissed when people bash him when most people have done many of the things he has done. BTW, just because someone does drugs doesn't mean that I can't be friends with them. I have many friends who are lazy ass stupid fucking pothead christians. Do you really think that anyone who grew up in the 60's & 70's didn't fuck like rabbits, smoke weed, and take acid? That includes many current politicians.... and weed smoking Clinton. Plus, he was fucking interns while he was the president, and you probably supported him and still do. Arnold was a fucking young high bodybuilder and to say that someone is the same person they were 26 years ago is completely crazy.
