I mean seriously. All this guy says in any of his speeches are lines from his movies like it's all a big fucking joke. Well, now the joke is on the Californians that voted for him.

1. nobody should be
He is what he is and I'm with you--the joke's on the folks who voted for him.

There are much larger problems than word choice.

3. No!!! Also, I belittle Austria as a nation for giving....
this jackass C Grade "Actor" a stamp.

It tells me ALOT about Austria and that the only thing they can show for all of their "history" are three horrible leaders:
Hitler, Waldheim, and Schwartzenegger.

:puke:

4. I'm not surprised. He was a sexist pig before he got elected,
and he's still one. I have no idea what Californians were thinking. The day before his election, our boss asked us if we thought Arnie would win. I was the only one who thought he wouldn't. Guess I'm just not the starstruck type.

5. Yeah
He is a joke.

What's weird though is he calls legislators, who stand up to him, "girlie men".

I thought that standing your ground was a sign of strength not weakness.
What he said doesn't make any sense to me at all.

10. I agree -
was he implying that if the Dems had rolled over for him that they would've been macho? And anyway, these "special interest" groups that he's referring to are working people. Huh? Have we become so fucking stupid as a country that we're starting to swallow this bullying crap? I guess he figures, "It works for Bush..."

6. no kidding
I think that instead of talking about sexism, the CA Dems should just point and say "What a dumbass"

7. Look at the worminator's past... he's always full of cheap vulgarity...
and steroids.

California would be better off with 'The Big One'(tm). :-( (and, no, it wouldn't be.)

8. Larry Flynt called him a big baffoon who's stuck on himself
Arianna Huffinton was on TV tonight saying he wears more makeup than most women, he's had plastic surgery and he dies his hair. Me thinks he just fucked up. He's a total joke who can't run the state. He borrowed money to balance the budget. Big deal. Anyone could have done that. I hope Letterman makes fun of his face lift tonight. Jon Stewart's on in a minute. Let's see what he says. :)

11. He's our version of bunnypants
Braindead facsist middle class and working class brain deads love that faux tough talk. None of have the balls to speak up themselves. Non du-ers are being driven right off the cliff in their own bling bling Escalades by ahnold and bunnypants.

12. The Ca. Dems should just say
"He doesn't mean that. The steroids made him say it. Steroids do strange things to the mind and OBVIOUSLY they have affected Ahhhhnolds."

I say fling the sh** back at these people! They want to play dirty? Dirty it is!

Never forget the 2002 mid-term election. Do not let their crap go unanswered!
