Is Arnold also an illegal immigrant?
I ran across this site just a few minutes and it gives an interesting rundown of Arnold's immigration history. Did he violate the terms of his visa and stay here illegally?

Take a look:

http://www.myleftwing.com/showDiary.do;jsessionid=7FA70761481B6447D9C12B5E5F76CCF1?diaryId=7810
Ahnold first came to the US in 1968 on a B-1 Visa with the following rules:

“a non-immigrant in B-1 status may not receive a salary from a U.S. source for services rendered in connection with his or her activities in the United States”

However, in his own autobiography, Schwarzenegger said that bodybuilding supremo Joe Weider gave him an apartment, a car, and a salary of $200/week during this period. This would seem to be a clear violation of his visa, thus making him an illegal immigrant.

A year later, Weider was able to sponsor Schwarzenegger for a H-2 visa, which allowed Schwarzenegger to work, but only in the area related to his visa. However,

…he violated the terms of his H-2 work visa by launching this bricklaying business in 1971… immigration attorneys across the country said Schwarzenegger would have been barred by visa restrictions from starting his own business.

Particularly fascist republican misogynists who were elected governors and call their opponents "girly-men".

I'm such a bigot.
