Time for the Terminator to step forward and answer detailed questions about his past conduct

"It was awful when Democrats used the 'Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged' jargon when defending Clinton. I find it worrisome that some Republicans are using it to defend a guy who boasts about 'gang-bangs.''

Point well taken, but Arnold bragged about it long ago, whereas, Bubba was a raping, coke-snorting gangster while as Governor -- if not President.

I say the man is a moral idiot-not an insult, a condition to which he has freely admitted. He is such an intellectual light-weight, he has no idea what is wrong with what he has said & done. This campaign may instruct him. His advisors appear not to be competant in that vein.

I didn't use the term "gang-bang", Ahnold did. Why don't you ask him?

Generally speaking the term "gang-bang" does not imply gang-rape. At least it didn't in the 60s and 70s. Besides, "Ahnold" didn't use the term, the interviewer did, "Ahnold" did agree with the term however.

Asked by the interviewer if this had been a “gang bang,” Schwarzenegger said, “Yes, but not everybody, ...”

Nice screen name - I'm 'Pro-Bush' too... but, is FR really the place for you to pick a screen name that describes your private sex life?

There is yet another major differenance between AS and BC. The woman in question was not a subordinate of AS, and AS held no office at the time. ML was about as much of a subordinate of BC as is possible, unless she'd been a temporary janitor.

Funny... they never were quick to jump on X42, Beelzebubba. At least Arnold wasn't married at the time of his escapades.

Perceptions do matter, so the questions deserve answers. But I seem to recall that "Oui" was Playboy's raunchier alter ego rather than any serious pretender to the practice of journalism.

The claims made in such a story have no more credibility than an 18-year old boy's locker-room sexual fantasy boasts. There might be some truth under the braggadocio, or there might be little or none. But does anyone believe that this was a serious interview, with any research or fact checking behind it?

"Ahnold" was doing what every would-be Hollywood actor spends their life at - seeking publicity. I KNOW, I grew up there, attended Fairfax and Hollywood high schools, and had relatives and friends in the business.

Would he have cared, at the time of the interview, if they puffed up what he said, or even created their own quotes to fit their own image? Probably not, if they got his name right and it brought him a tryout or two.

Past statements and actions matter because they serve to demonstrate character and thinking, but this interview is not a true test of either. Bustamante's refusal to disavow Mecha is far more revealing of character and intention, and far more chilling.

So he should answer the questions, and an answer of "I never said that" or "I never did that" has as much credibility as that long-ago interview itself.

Bump!

Can the black woman be identified and come forward to give her statement? Now that would be interesting to have Termite and the woman come face to face with each other. Surely, she's out there somewhere.

[scabbage]

Why does Gloria always wear red? Because her last name is All-red. That`s not some lame joke, that`s truly why she always wears red. Just a heads up on the logic of this woman, just pure idiocy. Too bad her last name wasn`t "Vomitgreen". I put her right up their with that woman Faith Popcorn.. "Come again? Your name is Faith what? Popcorn? and they let you roam around unattended?" I mean what the hell kind of moron says to themselves "Hey you know, let me name myself Faith Popcorn"... Yeah ok honey, I got a better one, how about "Doubt My Sanity Nuts"

[RLK]

That's not the answer to the question I asked. Try hooked on phonics courses.

I was making some allowance that maybe you don't everything spelled out very slowly. My mistake. The answer to your question is Y-E-S.

HAH! I bought a Keyboard Condom weeks ago, so I didn't spray my Frappucino inside there this time when I read your post!

HAH! I say. HAH!

[mugsy]

How anyone can in good conscience pull the lever for the lib orgy candidate over a good man like Tom McC is beyond me, I can't understand that at all.

They either don't understand the concept of a pyrrhic political victory, or they haven't come to terms with the perversion in their own lives.

[Pro-Bush]

Why is my private sex life a concern to you?

You have way too much time on your hands...get a life, not to mention a new haircut, 70's retro is way out of style.

[mugsy]

So, which of Arnold's views do you find appealing? What is it about his platform that gets you excited?

Strela, who are you going to vote for in the California recall elation? Oh, wait a minute! I see you're from Texas.

PS -- I'm voting for McClintock, and the likes of you have congealed my decision.

Please disregard previous message to you..Hope no offense taken (although I hope that picture was from back in the day)..I finally got your post. I took it differently initially.

You have to agree, it is better to be named "Pro-Bush" rather than "Pro-Dick".

[Chad Fairbanks]

No offense taken... however, with regards to my 70's Cassidy Haircut, that pic was taken on the way to see Steely Dan.. besides, Chick dig the Cassidys ;0)
