Schwarzenegger suggested that when the GOP leaders sit down with President Obama for a bipartisan health care summit Thursday, it's in their interest and the country's to compromise.

"If there is a will, there's a way," he said. "If you really want to serve the people and not just your party, I think you will find that sweet spot and you can get it done."

Yeah, no foolin’ he liked it. Because he wants another “donation” from the other 57 states. pfft

Tell ya right now, gang, if we bail out all these mismanaged states via printing press or federal tax increases, you’ll be scraping me off the ceiling!

That is the ultimate RINO shuffle, isn’t it? The Democrats want to move two steps to the left, but grand statesmen that they are the Republicans come to a bipartisan compromise to only move 1 1/2 steps to the left this time. Pause and repeat. And repeat. And repeat.

“Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger defends Obama’s stimulus plan”

Arnold Schwarzeneggeris no republican, like so many others like Mike Bloomberg he is a RINO turd.
RINOs are like the dog waste one steps in. Annoying.

When the defaults at various levels of government are imminent enough, voters will recognize and acknowledge the candidacies of men like Duncan Hunter.

Avoid unnecessary personal expenditures while becoming more self-sufficient every month. Maintain a hobby at manufacturing something useful. Be nonpolitical but prepared to support good men as leaders in the near future.

California should have their own natural-born-citizen requirement for political office. Ahnold has become a joke. Neither he nor 0bama really know America.

Agreed. This reaks of puckering up to Obama’s backside to get some billions greased its way.

Just another way to get in Jack Squat’s good graces in the hopes that Jack Squat will bail his state’s mad arse financial woes. What better way to say “please can you give us a bailout” then to support Jack Squat’s Stimulus while denouncing the Tea Party?

Hey, maybe, girly-man RINO Arnold believes Elvis is alive, like the other 7% who believe Elvis lives over the 6% who believed the frakin STIMULUS worked....................

You are so right.

There is a pattern: CA runs out of cash, Arnold kisses up to Obama. (Remember the B+ grade Arnold gave last time?) Obama says no, and then Arnold acts a little offended and slightly Republican.

Benedict Arnold might as well give up. California is mostly the wrong color. To get stimulus, you need to be black or have plenty of green to donate to the hard Left.

As long as Ca. keeps doing business the sa,e old way, they are toast as is the rest of the country. As you know, spending must be cut.

GDP Growth [Charts at link]

After the recession in 2001 and the first round of tax cuts, economic growth speeded up and is expected to pickup even faster in 2004.

The real annual GDP growth rate increased from 0.3 percent in 2001 to 2.5 percent in 2002. In the third quarter of 2003, GDP grew at a 7.2 percent annual rate. Forecasters are expecting GDP to grow by 4.6 percent in 2004, the highest in 20 years.

2003 and 2004 economic growth levels surpassed Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates by 150 basis combined, resulting in $300 billion of additional growth, which is roughly $2,500 per household.
