One could hope he will be greeted well here but I would be surprised. Tony, have a great time and thanks for everything.
Someone needs to tell this "professor" that her analysis might have a little more credibility if it had a little less personal projection in it. So we all loved Blair because he "hung out" with Bill Clinton?? But everyone hates him now that he got tangled up with Bush!!! PLUHHHSE!! I've got news for you, but most of us aren't so enamored of Bill Clinton that we fall in love with whomever his buddies are. These liberals and their silly school girl crush over a shrivelled prune like Clinton. Get a grip lady. Go change your panties.
Here goes Professor Asshat again. I'm a Californian, even live in L.A. I don't know ANYONE talking about this issue as being one we "most care about." I love these dumbasses like this witch who thinks what's important to them is important to everyone and that's the lense through which they do political analysis. Yeah, we all care so much about Global warming!!! That's ALL we ever talk about!!! It's so much more important to me than the high price of gas in this state coming precisely from the kinds of enviro. regs this "professor" gets off on and it's so much important to me than the budget, high taxes and over-regulation and keeping the state business friendly. No, let's pretend California alone can solve global warming and drive up the cost of gas, cars and doing business in Californa. And by the way dope, there have ALWAYS been heat waves and periods of global warming throughout time. And every climatologist I'm hearing is saying you cannot connect any one weather event to global warming. Gawd I can't stand the thought that my tax dollars are going to pay for an idiot "professor" like that.
Some interesting observations in the article:
"The prime minister's high profile stay has a benefit for the governor, allowing him to be on the leadership stage with a major world figure, while underscoring the issue of the environment, a key concern of state voters.
"Arnold is on a roll ... so it adds to Arnold's luster here. It shows that he has the image of an international politician,'' O'Connor said. "And as California swelters, he's at a high profile affair on global warming, one of the issues Californians most care about.''
