"You have to be aware that whatever you do can be undone by outside forces," [California Governor Arnold Schwartzenegger] told the San Jose Mercury News. "It's a great battle between good and evil – it's like a movie. You have the villain dressed in dark black, and the good guys in white and green."Let me just point out what our moral betters at The Guardian write about in such an approving tone: An Austrian absolutely knows the history behind Eva Braun, her beau, and their view of kosher. Arnold knew very well what he was saying.
His comments at the Commonwealth Club in Santa Clara were even more brutal, rejecting the Texas firms' claims they were trying to protect jobs in California. "This is like Eva Braun selling a kosher cookbook. It's not about jobs at all. It's about their ability to pollute and protect their profits," he said.
Opposing Arnold's dopey job losing eco-boondoggle is the same as death camps. You really have to RTWT to get the tone of approval. And Arnold's quote was only mentioned in paragraph nine. But opposing his crackpot scheme means that you're a villain dressed in dark black black. No doubt one of these.Can you imagine what The Guardian's reaction would be if Sarah Palin had made a reference to her opponents like this? Actually, you don't have to imagine, because they've already written about it:
Sarah Palin is calling for civilised discussion about Barack Obama's proposal for healthcare reform after saying the president's plan is "downright evil".Click through to read a very different tone than the first one.
Sigh. It's all so very tedious. I must confess that I long for an intellectually honest and vigorous left, one that can argue clearly and logically for their positions. One that take the attitude of "Well, we lost fair and square, but we'll try again with better arguments." And a press that reported both sides of things honestly. Instead, we have this. The Long March Through The Institutions has destroyed the institutions.
* Note that I'm not claiming that they occupy the morla high ground. I'm claiming that they claim to.

I try and stay away from the name calling game but I've dubbed arnold Priscilla and refer to him as such. I just do not know what happened to him. I remember his speech at the republican national convention (2000? I can't remember) and wonder where that men went. He's been an absolute disaster as governor. I keep imagining Gray Davis asking "Miss me yet?"

We may get one after the war.
The Hessian Kennedy presides over a bankrupt fascist-corporatist bureaucracy. Any additional state expansion is simply fantasy--like a Schwarzenegger movie.
Tedious. That's a good description of what Arnold has become. He started out with great promise but soon decided that it was more important to stay in office than fight the Democrat power structure.
They'd probably have been better off to have left Gray Davis in office.
Steroidal Arnold has drunk the kool aid, but he was also hit with a few Ruffies by the Union drink-mixers and bait-and-switchers in Sacramento who cut off his nuts and stole his mojo after they debauched him.
Gavin Newsome is a similar example but he goes for it voluntarily with the deeply corrupt Getty Oil money at his side, like the bear in the joke observes, he's not really there for the hunting.
Sadly the CA vs. TX thing is another sleight-of-hand to keep investigation away from the fatally flawed "climate legislation" CA23 that was enacted (not voted on) by CARB and who's principal "author-scientist" got his PhD from a FedEx mail-order drop box and is wholly unsuited and incompetent to address any of his calculations, not even the %320 error-rate that carves a fatal flaw through the entire piece of legislative dog-crap.
