This seems odd to me. A REPUBLICAN governor wanting full healthcare and a DEMOCRATIC administration opposing it. Doesn't California have stupidly low tax?

Oh he is a moderate Republican. He isn't that bad since he lost the special election.

I really think its sick that california voting in a Bad actor. Is the average IQ less than 5? I could never imagine having an actor as first minister in Wales. There would be an outrage and rightly so.

We did vote for Reagan.

Washing Machine 04.22.2007 03:02 PM

Well...exactly. Its so irresponsable to elect someone to political office purely on the grounds of them being famous. What is wrong with people?

Danny Himself 04.22.2007 03:06 PM

I'm sure he wasn't voted for JUST BECAUSE he was in the terminator movies, Washing Machine.

SynthethicalY 04.22.2007 03:07 PM

Well, the only difference is Americans have been dumbed down now. But he isn't that bad, it has a leftist agenda, with a right agenda as well. But yeah I know what you mean, some state voted for some wrestler.

We should have serious politicians not silly little hollywood people running a country.

Why must everything be turning into a freak show. It should be about experience, virtues, inteligence not catchphases and nonsence like that

What exactly is it that Arnie has done as governor that is oh-so-hollywood that you don't like? I don't follow politics as much as I should, but I haven't found any reason to dislike Schwarzenegger...

Washing Machine 04.22.2007 03:23 PM

The very fact he was voted in purely on the merits of being a celebrity annoys me immensely. It degrading to politics.

In fact most of the people in the race were either rich or some silly celebrity. I believe people should be voted into office after experience in the political arena, after proving themselves. The whole election was a freak show.

I don't think any of us actually know that.

SynthethicalY 04.22.2007 03:29 PM

Well to get into politics you have to be known. I've yet to see what he has done wrong. I mean he has done a lot of bad stuff, but he isn't as worst as most made it seem.

IT'S A TRAP!!!

SynthethicalY 04.22.2007 03:32 PM

Crypto I love you in a non-gay thing. But it is not a trap.

I just find the idea of a politically inexperienced hollywood actor who once called his rivals 'Girlie Men' running a state as big as california slightly unneaving. Thats all.
