Here's why no one in their right mind should support Arnold:
In a recent interview, he commented on gay marriage:

"...gay marriage should be something between a man and a woman."

:wtf:

I guess "gay" means something else in California.

3. Yeah, I heard that on CNN during lunch.
And then they asked him about affirmative action, and he said they hadn't come up with a position yet.

He doesn't know what he thinks about affirmative action? He doesn't know what his policies are, because nobody has told him yet. He's a puppet.

5. No, I don't think it is
R
Rasn't been told. I think he just doesn't want to say that in his heart, he is a racist, he believes in the whole white supremacy ideology (just a good little Nazi at heart). But of course he can't come out and say that so he just side-steps.

4. How 'bout the fact that his biggest donor is an energy company exec
and that he had a secret meeting with Ken Lay? How bout the fact that he's going to continue the Republican project of transferring the wealth of the CA middle class into a billion dollars in bankruptcy-protected Florida houses owned by energy company executives?

6. Sadly, not many will care.
Enron, Etc. only showed me how the sheeple don't care about "boring things" like financial scandal.

This sort of thing just shows he's a flat-out idiot. Of course, the right will spin this as Bush-like "media anxiety" (which is bullshit: Ahnold is a freakin actor for pete's sake...)

8. Just want to bump this up. Arnold will be a reverse Robin Hood
and that's the best reason not to vote for him.

CA'ians will probably love the fact that he has smoked pot and was in gay porn, or whatever.

7. First of all, it's an attack on democracy - an election took place
Then there's this:

Published on Sunday, August 17, 2003 by CommonDreams.org

Ahnuld, Ken Lay, George Bush, Dick Cheney and Gray Davis

by Jason Leopold

 And finally there's all the other stuff: the lying, the women abusing, the nazi friends & family plan, the W endorsement - take your pick. There's someone to excite anyone - even GOP-ers (he'd raise taxes!)

9. Cheap Shot
I heard the interview. Sean Hannity asked rapid-fire questions. Schwarzenegger answered them all quickly. After saying he supported domestic unions he was asked, "Gay marriage"?, "Gay marriage should be something between a man and a woman."

I liked the format. Wish journalists did this to presidential candidates.

10. If Sean Hannity is a journalist. I`m God! Arnold is a cheap shot with lots
Edited on Thu Aug-28-03 10:36 PM by wildwww2
of money. So why is he taking big bucks from Bu$h Inc. backers? He said he had plenty of his own money. Talk is cheap. And so is Bu$h Inc. and their new puppet Arnold.
Peace

11. Sean Hannity Isn't a Journalist
But this format was good. Moderators should do this at presidential debates.

12. Another Point
He recently implied that a special interest group was anyone who contributed to "his" competitors' war-chest.

He'll accept any and all monies, but won't be bought....

14. Guess what I found.
There is already a petition to recall Arnold, if he should win the governorship.http://www.petitiononline.com/schwarze/petition.html

15. Hell, I can't understand what he's saying most of the time
This guy is a complete joke--and the worst joke is how the repukes who damned Clinton to hell over a blow job are giving Arnie a pass on a gang-bang. It's been funny watching them defend it, though!
