Arnold Schwarzenegger, left, appears as a guest Friday on 'The Tonight Show with Jay Leno' at NBC studios in Burbank. Governor says 'girlie' crack was just a joke Schwarzenegger appears on 'Tonight Show' By MICHAEL R. BLOOD The Associated Press BURBANK Hey girlie men, it was a joke. Gov.

Arnold Schwarzenegger said Friday that his controversial put-down of Democratic lawmakers was blown out of proportion by people who have trouble recognizing a dash of humor. "People are so serious, especially in the political arena," the governor said on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno." "Everything is interpreted, you know, attacking gay people and lesbians and all this stuff. I didn't even think about that. It was a joke," he said. Democrats in Sacramento weren't amused when the Republican governor, in the midst of a deadlock in budget negotiations last month, mocked them as gutless "girlie men" unable to break away from trial lawyers, unions and other special interests.

Some Democrats grumbled that the remark was sexist and homophobic. The governor didn't apologize. "People call me 'girlie man' when I sit at the hairdressing salon and get my hair, you know, blown or get my fingernails polished," Schwarzenegger told Leno. "Who cares? They feel sensitive. I think maybe the truth hurts.

I don't know," he added with a chuckle. The governor lifted the "girlie men" remark from an old "Saturday Night Live" skit in which two pompous weightlifters repeatedly use it to needle those who don't meet their standards of physical perfection. Schwarzenegger's "Tonight Show" appearance marked the one-year anniversary of his surprise entry into last year's historic recall election. It was on Aug. 6, 2003, that he startled even some of his own advisers by announcing on Leno's stage that he would become a candidate for governor.

There was no dramatic announcement Friday. When asked by Leno if he would seek re-election, Schwarzenegger said to wait until next year. Schwarzenegger, considered a political moderate, is scheduled to deliver a prime-time speech at the Republican National Convention in New York City but that didn't stop him from lamenting the nasty partisan tone on the presidential campaign trail. "It's very divisive," he said. "It's really sad in a think the country suffers because of it, rather than bringing people together and, you know, being more civil." Schwarzenegger also appeared to inch away from his suggestion that the state Legislature be cut back to a part operation.

"It's just an idea not to be taken too seriously," he said. Schwarzenegger also let Leno in on one secret: He can say "California" like everyone else. The governor, who was born and raised in Austria, has long pronounced his adopted state's name with a hard and a lilt: "Kah-li-fornia," according to the phonetic description on a whimsical state billboard. But prodded by Leno, Schwarzenegger pronounced California with only a trace of an accent.
