1. Those photos

have to be touched up! I saw him on my TV yesterday and thought how old, pale and saggy he looked and that he wasn't aging any better than the rest of us. He looks pretty good (for Ahhhhhnold) in these pictures.

2. Maybe he went to one of those spray-on tan places

hell, he probably owns one.

4. It's the lighting...

SANTA ROSA
He still thinks he is in the movies I guess

It was a picture-perfect moment for Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, strolling confidently up the front porch, past the waving American flag, into the manicured living room of Nancy Miller's Santa Rosa home last week for a talk with "real people" about real issues.

But the portrait of casual conversation, from the brownies and madeleines laid out by the friendly hostess to the participants bathed in the soft glow of Hollywood-style lighting, was a well-planned media event, made possible by a whirlwind of political activity aimed at carefully shaping the governor's reform message.

9. Oh, of course.

Seriously, he looked like a saggy, baggy pale old guy the last time I saw him. Of course, Hollywood lighting. Anyone know where an average, saggy, baggy pale old lady can get some of that?

3. Why is he still wearing his Terminator face mask?

Sorry, Arnie. That flick is long since over... :rofl:

5. Yes, they've turned up the lights and the audience is filing out.

And with this post, I leave the 700 Club!

6. Sorry, none are as bad as this one:

Guess I should have warned you, huh?

7. Ack! n/t

8. Great, very expensive-looking dye job and hair cut

and it even looks like they dye a bit of his eyebrows, too.

Mystic tan on the face, then makeup to supplement.

Money can buy you some appearance preservation for a while.

As for his political career, he's toast. Dead in the water.
