Schwarzenegger's huge knife gets them all atwitter
July 23, 2009 - 12:15PM

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has posted a video on his Twitter page which shows him brandishing a huge hunting knife as he talks about the state's budget crisis.

Schwarzenegger, under fire for a budget plan announced this week that will see $US15 billion ($A18.39 billion) in spending cuts from services such as education and health care, said the light-hearted video was intended as a bit of fun.

In the video, posted on Twitter on Tuesday in the US, the governor is sitting at his desk in the Capitol admiring a 60cm-long folding knife before looking up to thank followers for their budget ideas.

1. Thousands of people will die; it's funny, see?
Yeah, it's true; Republicans are simply incapable of doing humor.
