California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is under fire after apparently hiding an obscenity in a letter to a political opponent.
The Republican wrote to a local politician from the rival Democrat party explaining why he refused to sign a bill into law.
But the note appears to include a less diplomatic explanation - a swear word hidden in an acrostic poem, where the first letter of each line spells out a word or sentence.
"My goodness. What a coincidence," his spokesman Aaron McLear said.
"I suppose when you do so many vetoes, something like this is bound to happen."
The letter was sent to San Francisco assembly member Tom Ammiano and posted on the state's website.
He had sponsored the legislation about a local port that prompted the response from Mr Schwarzenegger.
It is not the first time the pair have disagreed, as earlier this month Mr Ammiano heckled the Republican governor when he spoke at a Democrat event and accused him of being a liar.
"Kudos to the governor for his creative use of coincidence," Quintin Mecke, Mr Ammiano's spokesman, responded.
"You certainly have to have a sense of humour in politics. Unfortunately, this humour came at the cost of the Port of San Francisco."
The former movie star and bodybuilder has been criticised before for his colourful language and behaviour.
In July, Mr Schwarzenegger brandished a knife in a web video about budget cuts.
;D
The letter reads "Fuck You" written down the side of it. 8)

Look at the two bigger paragraphs...
The first letter of each line...
The target was San Francisco Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, who had sponsored AB1176. Democratic assemblyman who heckled the governor during a recent event in San Francisco actually received two messages: the veto letter itself and a not-so-subtle rebuke creatively hidden within it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Ammiano
'Ammiano was in a 16-year domestic partnership with a fellow schoolteacher, Tim Curbo, who died of complications from AIDS in 1994. He has one daughter and is now a grandfather. Aside from his teaching and political careers, Ammiano has been a stand-up comedian since 1980. Ammiano portrayed himself in the 2008 film Milk.
He told California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger to "kiss my gay ass" when the Republican governor made an appearance at a Democratic fundraiser in an attempt to convince Democrats to lower in home care giver nurses salaries to minimum wage.[9]'

So Arnold says "I fuck you" to a gay dude? Is he asking the guy for a date? I don't get it.
