Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is proposing to completely eliminate the state’s welfare program for families, medical insurance for low-income children and Cal Grants cash assistance to college and university students.

Let the wailing and nashing of teeth begin! The new hot trend in California fashion is SACK CLOTH AND ASHES!

[pissant]

Hey, it’s a great start. Best thing he’s ever suggested.

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has ‘Grown’.

[freespirited]

It must be April Fool’s Day. Ahnuld is talking like a Republican.

[jimfree]

This isn’t talking like a Republican, it’s talking like a Randian.

[Talisker]

No program for illegal aliens, however, will be touched.

A man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do.

[reegs]

Great! Now let’s see all those Hollywood Libs put their money where their mouths are. If they’re so concerned about the “downtrodden” let them pony up the bucks to provide free medical care, housing, etc.

[PGR88]

That might take care of much of the I.I. problem at the same time

[Red Steel]

Would this include OctoMom?

[BGHater]

Joy. It will bring tears, sob stories and a Fed Bailout.

[reegs]

“Arnold Shrugs”

[umgud]

One of the commentor’s stated; “ Well, it’s a good start.”

[swarthyguy]

Nope, just a gambit to compel FedZilla to bail out Kakafornia.

[wolfcreek]

Ann Coulter say, “Get rid of illegal aliens and your budget problem is GONE in 2.5 years”

[stevie_d_64]

Get ready for the great migration eastward...

That won’t slow down till the wave hits the Mississippi River...

[OpusatFR]

The Governator needs to give the Cali budget to Zero who can then go over it “line by line” and cut a couple bucks.

[VanDeKoik]

“Governor plans to completely eliminate welfare for families
“

Does he want a cookie?

It called eliminating NON-ESSENTIAL expenditures when you don’t have the money to pay for them!!!

Also known to folks in states like Alaska as living within your means.

[pointsal]

A man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do.

Well, Arnold is an actor, so the next task is finding a “man”.
