George Shultz? Now that's Gravitas

[Zevonismymuse]

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.

Oh no! His family owns Bechtel! That means Arnold is in the pocket of the Evil Oil Industry. Call Arianna.

Arnold hit the left with Warren Buffett and now he's made a right hook with George Schultz! Talk about political jujitsu!!!

It looks like he is building a foundation of advisors from Milton Friedman's Hoover Institute. Thomas Sowell cannot be far behind. Meanwhile Jesse Jackson is being hermetically glued to Gray Davis...

Here is George Shultz's bio page at Hoover Institute.

Schultz was chair of Reagan's Economic Policy Advisory Board and has a PhD in industrial economics from MIT.

God help us.

For those who were having hysterics over Arnold picking Buffet, a Democrat as an economic advisor, can now see that Arnold knows exactly what he is doing: Shultz and Buffett will co-chair his economic team, so there is nothing to worry about.


George Shultz to chair Schwarzenegger economic team

ERICA WERNER, Associated Press Writer Thursday, August 14, 2003


(08-14) 18:08 PDT LOS ANGELES (AP) --

Arnold Schwarzenegger announced Thursday that former U.S. Secretary of State George P. Shultz will co-chair an Economic Recovery Council for his gubernatorial campaign.

It was the second heavyweight announcement in as many days for the actor as he seeks to position himself as a well-credentialed candidate for the state's highest office. On Wednesday the campaign said billionaire investor Warren Buffett would be a financial adviser.

Buffett and Shultz, who served during the first Bush administration, will be joint co-chairs of the economic council. Buffett is a high-profile Democrat and Shultz a high-profile Republican and their appointments reflect the campaign's attempt to assemble a diverse and bipartisan team.

The campaign will soon have an economic summit, Schwarzenegger told reporters in brief remarks on his way into a San Fernando Valley middle school where he attended a commencement ceremony for an after-school program he's involved with.
