This type of social conservative--guys doing what they think is right because they think it is right--is precisely the sort of man that President Bush has shown incredible skill in using to make America better. Our Texan President, our proudly Cowboy President, does not demand that anyone agree with him on every issue. In fact, such silly boys can be skimmed off the corporate boards of a hundred big companies.

You're a sage, honest and reasonable man who always adds content of value to every thread you troll.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is a social conservative

So are Ted Kennedy, Barbara Boxer, and Larry Flynt since they all hold similar views as Arnold on social issues.

The beauty of America, of course, is that social conservatism does not require being correct as much as being sincere. It does not require conformity to a particular catechism so much as it means conformity to some catechism. The bewildering variety of religions, sects, and societies in American life is a testament to Americans respecting in social life the same freedom to be wrong that we respect in our economic life. Indeed, social conservatism is another form of market choice which helps, through competition, to elevate cultures and traditions within America.

Can you even make an attempt to wrap your brain around something a little deeper and more thought-provoking than OUI magazine?

Well, Humpty Dumpty insisted that, when HE used a word, it meant what HE decided it meant. (He thereafter fell off his wall to his demise.)

Arnold certainly isn't a "social (issues) conservative" in the usual sense.

Did you read the article, or just the title?

I know it's not from CPR, but you can TRY, can't you?

Bull$hit.

I like Arnold; but I consider myself a social moderate, and Arnold is somewhere to the left of me...

I guess you're not used to seeing "intellectual" in the same phrase as "conservative," hmm?

There's a word for this kind of article: "Sophistry."

I think I'll sound like a stupid soccer mom (although I'm not a mom and don't have a soccer ball):

I think Arnold is cute. Much cuter than Gray or Cruz.

These threads are ridiculous.

The whole reason for the recall was to get rid of Gray Davis and his ilk. We have to vote for someone who can do that. Personally, I don't think McC can, but I'm still holding my fat little ballot until the end.

Hey, do they make absestos underwear in pink and with lace?

'Intellectual Conservative', huh?'

Typical of 'intellectuals' to think everybody else is stone-cold stupid...

Appealing to conservatives by comparing A.S. to Powell?

The irony is so thick you need a suicide bomber to cut it.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is made of the "right stuff.” There is no odor of phoniness about him.
Except, of course, when he was doing the interview with Oui magazine. Was he lying then, or is he lying now when he says he was lying then? Either way, he is a liar.

And it is especially amusing to read the words "faithful to their wives" and Rudy Giuliani in the same story.
