SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Arnold Schwarzenegger added more brawn to his campaign team on Thursday by announcing ex Secretary of State George Shultz would join his campaign as an economic adviser, according to the candidate's spokesman.

Seeking to counter opponent's attacks that the muscleman-turned-actor was not qualified to serve as California's governor, Schwarzenegger has assembled a team of political veterans behind the scenes and some top finance names in the foreground.

On Wednesday, he named billionaire Democrat Warren Buffett as his senior economic adviser, then donated $1 million to his own campaign to help fund the new team.

Spokesman Sean Walsh said on Thursday that Shultz, who served as secretary of state under president Ronald Reagan, would also join the economic advisory team.

YUK,

I don't trust that old globalist by a long shot.

God help us.

I apologize for mentioning her name and promise to not do so again. Ever

No problem, mate! It's good fodder for ridicule. And ridicule drives the left absolutely NUTS! (they insist on being taken seriously -- even after their dissociative behavior has been revealed for all to see).

And ridicule drives the left absolutely NUTS!

In the Screwtape Letters it says that the only thing the Devil hates is to be mocked.

So if the Constitution is amended....then Arnie could be Prez? Wow!!!! I like that idea. (But then, I like Arnie.)

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

What about David Gergen?

Gergen is a whore, like Morris. Only difference is, he doesn't suck toes (as far as I know).

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

It looks like he is building a foundation of advisors from Milton Friedman's Hoover Institute. Thomas Sowell cannot be far behind.

Agreed. And certainly Arnold is taking a page out of GW's 2000 playbook to stunt the opposition. He's making effective moves. A Thomas Sowell sign-on would be another earthquake.

Are you honestly trying to imply that people should be judged by what their parents did and not what they do?

How much have you given the jewish league, btw, since you're bringing it up?

[GatekeeperBookman]

I will answer you privately, that I may be more frank.

[LaraCroft]

What are you embarassed because you look like an idiot for not knowing about a bill that everyone else knows about?

Nice though, to attack someone for pointing out your ignorance in a nicer way than I was going to.

[LaraCroft]

LOL! How do you come up with these things so quickly!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

...the Devil hates is to be mocked.

Yep. Just look at Hitlery!

[ladyinred]

And the 2% who do know are NWO conspiracy buffs.

Are they here yet?

Kurt Waldheim: In 1986 he was elected president of Austria, despite the scandal caused by the revelation that he had been an officer in a German army unit that committed atrocities in Yugoslavia during World War II.

Waffen SS:In 1925 Adolf Hitler formed his own personal bodyguard called the Schutzstaffel (SS). Four years later Hitler appointed Heinrich Himmler as the leader of the SS. By the time of Himmler's appointment the SS had only 280 members. They wore the same uniform as the SA except for a black cap with a silver death's head badge and a black tie.

Over the next year Himmler obtained the independence of the SS from the Sturm Abteilung (SA). Sepp Dietrich was put in charge of Hitler's bodyguard whereas Himmler concentrated on building up the organization.

With the agreement of Adolf Hitler, Himmler expanded the size of the SS. Himmler personally vetted all applicants to make sure that all were good 'Aryan' types. In 1932 Himmler introduced all-black uniform of the SS.

By the time the Nazi Party gained power in 1933 Himmler's SS had grown to a strength of 52,000. He was also made head of all German political police outside Prussia, where Hermann Goering was the minister of the interior.

Himmler agreed with Goering that the Sturm Abteilung (SA) posed a threat to the German Army and in June 1934, along with his loyal assistants, Reinhard Heydrich, Kurt Daluege and Walter Schellenberg, he arranged what became known as the Night of the Long Knives.

As a result of this purge the SS was now the principal instrument of internal rule in Germany. In 1936 the Gestapo also came under Himmler's control. Himmler was also able to put SS men in all the key posts in Nazi Germany.

In December, 1940 Heinrich Himmler established the Waffen SS. This new army grew rapidly and within six months grew to over 150,000 men.

During the Second World War the SS Death's Head Units were put in charge of Germany's Concentration Camps. The SS also followed the German Army into the Soviet Union where they had the responsibility of murdering Jews, gypsies, communists and partisans.

By June 1944 the SS had over 800,000 members: Hitler's Body Guard (200,000) Waffen (594,000) and Death Head Units (24,000).

At the Nuremberg War Crimes Trial the Schutzstaffel (SS) was declared a criminal organization and a large number of its leaders were executed.

Many were eleminated by the 'good guys' when they were encountered in the filed. Patton expalined it was hard to catch them alive.

Does this mean that George Schulz is now a RINO along with the rest of us including the President according to the "purist" conservatives or "true" or whatever they call themselves today that support Arnold?

This is great -- how are the "purist" going to spin this one?

[GatekeeperBookman]

I have nothing to apologize about to YOU. I was rude to someone else, mistakenly thinking their sympathies were with this mad & evil 'amendment' ( which is dead ). Maybe you should look around for something else to pick at.

[BibChr]

LOL!

[GatekeeperBookman]

I also can't help but imagine that they imagined the very illogical results which foreigners might have oin a nation. I have considered that Arnold has said in his own words, "I am conflicted" with regard to culture. This is a serious issue for us now. It will grow & must be addressed. People with no knowledge of our history & culture comming here to run for office.

[LaraCroft]

You were rude in public. It's offensive and it's called duty to not allow boorish behaviour.

Grow up.

[cubreporter]

Been reading your posts with the other freeper. So glad to see you both apologize and show your respect for each other. That was nice and I thank you both for being so civil. :)
