Arnold for Governor -- Because Winning is Everything, and Character Doesn't Count!
me ^ | October 1, 2003 | Joe Schembrie

Posted on 10/01/2003 5:32:28 PM PDT by JoeSchem

How do you face your kids after you've voted for Arnold Schwarzenegger?

"Son, I want you to follow the rules, go to church, don't take drugs, don't mess around sexually, study hard, and above all, stand by your principles."

"Why, dad?"

"Well, so you'll be a success."

"But Arnold Schwarzenegger didn't do any of those things, and he's governor of California!"

"Son, if you act according to principle, you'll have my respect."

"Dad, you voted for Arnold Schwarzenegger! And Tom McClintock acted according to principle, and you were disgusted with him."

"Go your room, son."

"Can't do that, dad. You see, I forged your name to some papers and sold the house. The new owners will be arriving shortly. I guess you could seek legal counsel, but lawyers cost money, and I cleaned out your bank account too. I'll be leaving now -- but dad, thanks for all you taught me -- about how winning is everything, and character doesn't count."

Why not vote for an actual 'Republican'? And a Republican that looks good in a miniskirt no less!

Vote for:
REVA RENEE RENZ

I haven't prayed the issue through because I don't have to vote in California.

But I believe I would be held responsible by God for knowingly putting ZurC Aztlan in who potentially would support massively more death and destruction sooner . . . as well as greater destruction of democratic principles and the more rapid hastening of the tyrannical super destructive police state in all it's horrors.

. . .

all for the race, for those outside, nothing.

as well as ZurC's wholesale gahgah cheering of globalist aims of the group rushing to put the AntiChrist in power.

First the casinos. Who's next?

How about anyone else who's been avoiding paying their fair share? As someone who pays his taxes and has for over 30 years, I see nothing wrong with that. I have a feeling you don't either, though I suspect you're just not honest enough to admit it.

A vote for Angelyne is a vote for that fruit abuser Gallagher

Knock it off. Gallagher is my candidate!

I didn't say you were a leftist. I said you were using leftist rhetoric--and you were.

Instead of voting their conscience they are going to the ballot to pick a winner.

Because losers don’t make policy.

I've never stated otherwise.

Sure you did. You said you were sick of the Dems winning all the time...and they're not.

O come now--Arnolds a good Catholic.

Good Catholics don't " show off" church attendance at Crystal Cathedral for publicity!!

You are an insufferable bore, do you know that? I'm sick to death of your condescending pontification to the people in the state of California who actually have to live there and are making a decision based on THEIR needs.

And on Wednesday morning, you'll be wrong.

Again.

All the INDEPENDANT polling say over 50% for the recall and that Arnold will win. Because REPs will get out more and There are DEMs who want Davis gone.

It is too bad that there are those who only look at ONE ISSUE.

You do not buy a car because you like one thing about it, it is because you like the price, the color, how it drives, but you might not like the resale value, you might not like the way the seat adjusts.... but you take all the things you like and if they are more than what you do not like, and the price is right you buy the car.

There you go again. If you can think of something...ANYTING of substance to say please do. Otherwise I'm gong to start ignoring you idiocy.

Care to discuss the polls again? Tell me how they meant nothing until there was one that was kind to you TomBots. That's worth another laugh or two.

The same way you face your kids driving over the speed limit, explain the election of that couple from Arkansas, tell them it's good when a player on your football team hits a player on another team: "he hit 'im real good!", shall we continue?

You called me simpleminded and narrowminded.

I responded.

If you can't take it don't dish it out.

You're totally right. It's absolutely okay to vote for a liberal pro-gay anti-second-amendment pro-illegal-immigrant chucklehead if the polls show him ahead. Poll numbers are vastly more important than principle and virtue.

The 'Liberal' model is being recalled.

Why would anyone in their right mind turn right around and buy the same model with a different nameplate?

He has no other purpose in life. I'm sure their have been serious withdrawal problems for some of these characters without a Keyes or a Klayman to run behind and kiss their........well, you get it.

I assume he'll be working for Klayman, since we've been assured Keyes won't run (*wink wink*).
