Arnie ready to work with girlie men

CALIFORNIA Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who once taunted Democrats as 'girlie men', called today for an end to partisan bickering and a focus on innovative centrist policies.

In a elaborately staged inaugural that included singers breaking into choruses of "Hallelujah" right after he took the oath of office, Mr Schwarzenegger said California could serve as a model to the rest of the country and larger world.

"At one time, the greatest public policy innovations came from liberals, such as during the New Deal," the Republican celebrity said. "Then the most innovative ideas came from conservatives, such as Ronald Reagan.

"It is time we combined the best of both ideologies into a new creative centre. This is a dynamic centre that is not held captive by either the left or the right or the past," he said after arriving on crutches with a leg broken while skiing.

The former Mr Olympia and Hollywood "Terminator" came to office in 2003 following an election recall in which voters fired his Democratic predecessor.

But by 2005, voters had tired of his competitive style and rejected a package of government overhaul initiatives in a special election he had called.

Arnie is a girlie man. His wife turned him into one. There used to be a term for it. The last word was whipped. The first word didn't have anything to do with cream.

If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.

The only reason I voted for Arnold can be summed up in 2 words: Phil Angelides

Maybe he has. These quotes of his latest speech (if not out of context) I cant disagree with though

"No one ideology can solve prison reform or immigration reform or any of the other challenges facing us,"

"It will take the best ideas of everyone. It will take creative thinking. It will take negotiations. It will take letting go of the past."

BTW thanks for the article.

This all sounds beautiful in theory. I can see the turtledoves flying around Arnold's head.

The problem is when it gets down to the practical. He won't be able to reconcile the smaller government, low taxes, and fiscal responsiblity ideas of the Republicans with the expanding role of goverment, more taxes and let our grandchildren worry about repaying our debts ideas of the Democrats.

In the end, Arnold will make politically expedient decisions.
