Ah-nold "Created" The Hummer, But He's "All For" The Environment
Edited on Fri Sep-12-03 04:59 PM by hatrack
From the National Journal Hotline, 9/11/03

"Schwarzenegger appeared on 'The O'Reilly Factor' 9/10. The highlights:

Schwarzenegger, on his Hummer:

'I'm very proud of the Hummer, because I created that industry. I went to the Hummer factory and said we should make this Hummer not only a military car but a civilian car. Now we have to find ways how to create alternative, you know, fuel for them. I have my Hummer, for instance, right now, trying to see if we can change it, for instance, to try it out and seeif it can be done, to have hydrogen fuel cell, hydrogen energy. So there's many ways of going, and I think that's where the future of fuel will be going in this state and maybe in the rest of the country.

But I'm all for the environment.'"

EDIT

There you have it, straight from the horse's mouth.

5. So much energy so little brains

We get energy from inorganic things...The sun, wind and water are loaded with energy yet we keep effing the earth, burning up the sky so we can keep the idiot consumers addicted to the proverbial oil nipple.

A Hummer Arnold? What practical use does this vehicle have other than to showcase who has more money than brains? Furthermore, its freaking ugly as shit.

At Disney World,EPCOT has a ride called "Test Track" with Hummer on display at end of ride.It was behind ropes until recently,like they wanted it to remain a carnival freak.They made the freak open for closer inspection and have dropped rope on the Corvette also,the other type of overcapacity.That was about the only overcapacity I witnessed since crowds are low even for off-season.I keep an eye out for British there when I am not sandwichspotting and have noticed that they stay away from Futureworld or are awed silent at the display of the paperless office.
