The article states it incorrectly. His soul is simply political.
Regardless of what he thinks, there will never be a constutional amendment allowing naturalized citizens to become President.
Lay down with dogs, get up with fleas. Arnold better figure out quickly that the party of socialist mediocrity which has an agenda that includes belittling the normal family unit and destroying traditional America is not his friend.
Bull. Instead of slashing expendictures, we have more bonds which will only beget more taxes to pay them off. Hell, in this past election cycle, Arnold supported one proposition (Prop 71) that puts the already debt-saddled California economy in debt for another $6 BILLION, accounting for interest.
If that's fiscal conservativism, then I'm the King of Jamaica.
The King of Jamaica? LOLOL
Hey Mon!!! No problem. :-)
The DebTinator has it all under control.
She's been writing about politics and doing analysis for AP for years. :-)
She studied at the Helen Thomas School of Journalism, I guess.
She seems a bit... ummm... out of touch?
I found this:
Beth Fouhy is a reporter at the Associated Press. Before joining the AP, she worked as an executive producer for political coverage at CNN. Fouhy has covered the California recall election, Wesley Clark’s recent run for president and numerous other federal and local elections. She was a Knight Fellow at Stanford University in 2001. Fouhy graduated from Oberlin College.
In a pig's eye. Taxes are still being raised, businesses and taxpayers are still leaving in record numbers, and the state debt has just grown by an additional $6 billion dollars.
When (not if) California tanks, I sure as hell hope that right-thinking Republicans are in charge and refuse to bail the state out of the mess it made for itself.
I may have her confused with Erica Werner.
I agree with you. Local taxes have been raised right and left. University fees, Park fees, etc. are all being raised. In the meantime, the State is borrowing for the deficit, for stem-cell research, for pension contributions, etc. And that doesn't count the promises made for future increases in exchange for interim reductions in spending (education, prisons, etc.). We were told there would be cuts in spending; none were implemented, let alone proposed by the Governor. There is a huge cliff in front of us, one that an "improved economy" cannot solve (IMO).
A new report from the Legislative Analysts Office is due out next week which will reportedly show more deficits in our future.
A year later, and nothing has changed except the name on the door and the level of debt. No conservatism in sight.
Arnold is depending upon a reviving economy to save him. So far, it's looking better, but not enough to cover his profligacy.
Agreed!
(You made me get out my dictionary again! LOL)
You know, I'm glad he won the governorship of California, but no way do I support an amendment to make him PRESIDENT. Gimme a break! What happens when some ass like George Soros decides he wants to rule our country?
I also don't believe that amendment would have a snowballs chance. And, I don't think Arnold should be president. He's about ego at this point.
And always has been.
Cool word, isn't it?
