His outline for clean air, water - Schwarzenegger says jobs, environment can be protected

CARPINTERIA -- Admitting he'd known little about the issue before running for governor, Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger touted his plans for the environment Sunday by pledging to cut air pollution in half and reduce energy use by 20 percent in five to eight years.

At 14% McClintock is dead meat. Whether you wish to face the fact or not, he is not going to be elected. Since most of you have already made it perfectly clear you'd rather have Bustamante than Schwarzenegger, I would suggest you folks vote "no", then Bustamante.

A cynical, sarcastic personal attack that totally avoided the real issue: will voting for Arnold benefit California Republicans?

I'm about half-way through analyzing his policy in detail and I can tell you that the answer on this issue is clearly, not. It may help investors on Wall Street and those big corporations that play both sides, but from what I read of what Mr. Kennedy produced, Arnold will be even more destructive to the California Republican base than Wilson or even Davis. It's a fact. What most people don't know or understand is the MASSIVE environmental damage that WILL result, whether the outcome is Davis, Bustamante, or Arnold.

I might throw McClintock right in with them for different reasons, but I don't really know where he stands on environmental issues. I'm hoping to influence him through his campaign and put a call in to his chief of staff this morning. I'd really like to get these issues into the public debate, rather than see this continued destrcutive demagoguery.

Exactly the response I expected to get from you, darling... have a nice afternoon :-)

>>>Exactly the response I expected to get from you, darling... have a nice afternoon

Cop-Out! Its the right proper answer coming from someone whose a conservative Republican. The fact you keep running from the debate, shows you can't defend Arnoldgore's position.

The fact you keep running from the debate

That's what you don't understand. I'm not running from debate because you DON'T debate... you spin, dodge and attack. I don't think you can help it, actually.

You and I have gone around and around on all these issues before and gotten nowhere. I could care less about the insults and jabs, what I do care about it not wasting more time on the same exact non-productive arguments. These threads are hostile and cluttered enough with that garbage, I'm not going to keep adding to it with the same fights with the same members when I know how they'll wind up. Try it yourself, you might like it LOL

Toodles ;-)

You've really developed into one whiny little Arnoldnaut and someone who distorts the truth because you can't defend Arnold on the issues. You have no desire to engage me in real debate and you made that abundantly clear, when you didn't answer my last challenge a while back. Remember that? LOL

You're the one whose been spining and dodging. Not to mention taking cheap shots at Tom McClintock. Here we have a fairly popular GOP candidate (TM garnered more votes then anyother GOP candidate in 2000 election) and bonafide conservative without a hint of scandal in his past and go around insulting and smearing him, because he won't step aside for Arnold the liberal.

I understand your plight. Its difficult defending an empty suit like Arnold. Carry on.

[Tamzee]

Chow for now ;-)

From Arnold's plans: "Much of the initial investment for these improvements can come from already approved bond measures, ..."

Boy, that's a relief. For a second there I thought somebody was going to have to pay for these things.
