"Schwarzenegger said he loves the unrest he's unleashed."
Beware of what you wish for, because you might get it.

1. First the nurses, then the teachers, now the firefighters...
What happens when he's alienated ALL public sector employees?

The police?

Transportation?

The water department?

I'd love to see the public sector employees shut California down for a day or two.

2. I'd like to see him have a situation that would require those NY firemen
and the nurses. Not that I would truly wish harm to even him, I would like to see...oh lets say it's just a muscle spasm but the big boy thinks he's having a heart attack. Yes, I would like to see them play a few games with him at that point. lol

3. The article did not mention your headline. Why are the firefighters angry?

5. Angry b/c Arnold's trying to privatize their pensions, thus holding
their retirements hostage to the whims of financial hacks of Wall Street.

7. Plus...there are a helluva lot of firefighters dating or married to NURSES
One of my brothers is a firefighter married to a nurse.

4. I love the irony in this statement
"When the special interests push me around, I'll push back," Schwarzenegger said to cheers and applause from more than 500 people at a $1,000-a-plate dinner.

Ok black is white and white is black when "special interests" is firefighters, teachers, nurses, and basicly your average hard working American while individuals that pay $1000 for dinner and the chance to ogle at the former bad actor are not special interests.
