Angelides hits Schwarzenegger for 'character flaw' (Phil A. against Prop 90)

The property initiative poses a political dilemma for Schwarzenegger because it is backed by his GOP base yet opposed by environmental groups and the California Chamber of Commerce, two interests the Republican governor has courted.

Schwarzenegger said Tuesday he has not taken a position on Proposition 90, though he intends to "very soon because I'm looking at all the aspects. As you know, it's a very complicated issue, and so I'm looking at all the different angles so that I come out very clear."

Proponents have asserted that Proposition 90 prevents government from seizing private property to give to another private owner. Opponents say it goes too far by requiring compensation whenever any new law substantially reduces the value of one's property, a possible hindrance to land-use powers.

Angelides, who opposes Proposition 90, charged Tuesday at a labor event in nearby Hayward that Schwarzenegger's uncertainty means "the guy's got a character flaw."

"He says he's an environmental governor," Angelides said. "...How can he not stand up unequivocally and say he's not only opposed to it, but he's going to campaign against it like I've been doing?"

Angelides has dodged an initiative dilemma of his own on Proposition 88, a $50 parcel tax to support schools. While Angelides considers himself the education candidate in the governor's race, he has grown sensitive to charges that he would unduly raise taxes if elected. Schwarzenegger opposes Proposition 88.

Angelides is against Prop. 90, the prop to limit eminent domain seisures, and he say Arnold has a character flaw!

angelides is for Prop. 88, raising taxes on real estate.

From another article:

Arnold will be on H&C Friday:

"In what has become a rare nod to a conservative base that he once tended to assiduously, Schwarzenegger plans to appear Friday on "Hannity & Colmes," a Fox News television show to be taped on the Midway, the San Diego Aircraft Carrier Museum. "


And looks who is campaigning with Angelides:


"To capitalize on a national political climate that strongly favors Democrats, Angelides will appear at a UCLA rally Thursday with party Chairman Howard Dean. On Friday, three of the party's biggest stars are slated to join him at a USC rally: Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco and Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa."

Some brain trust the DNC has there
Barack Yomoma being pushed now

There is a lot in the closet on him - a great father influence he had

Then a personal trip to Africa with a huge MSM groupie horde in tow


The last part of his speech at the 2004 DNC National Convention swerved hard left into Communism after a "moderate" start

Now the Slick Willie "but" on the WH run

A stealth Muslim in Congress?


Plenty on the left running now and soon with that in the shadows

Angelides really *is* campaigning like a drowning man.

For me, its simple: I don't give a damn if Arnold is agonizing over whether to support property rights. Like a good liberal, he wants more governmental power over our lives. I am FOR property rights AND for Proposition 90. And you can quote me on it - no agonizing here for this conservative.
