Inspired by a weight trainer who witnessed Nazi slayings of Jews during World War II, Arnold Schwarzenegger used his menacing muscular physique to help break up neo-Nazi rallies as a teenager, his ex-trainer said Saturday.

In an interview with The Associated Press, gym owner Kurt Marnul said the young Schwarzenegger participated at least twice in organized disruptions of Nazi gatherings near his hometown of Graz during the 1960s.

Thanks for posting this. I'm sure it will be above the fold at the New York Times, and lead with a bullet on ABC News.

I'm surprised that the Ministry of Propaganda allowed this to be made public. The Democrat Propaganda Machine is going full blast! They're smearing everbody from Jessica Lynch to Rush Limbaugh to Mother Theresa to King Kong. Do you suppose the Democrats are getting disgusted with themselves? ...uh... no... Forget I said that. What a silly question!

I see you hang out on the poetry pages. Let me put this in terms that you can understand.

Roses are red
Violets are blue
The Nazis fled
And Davis will too

I don't think that Arnold was ever a Hitler fan, so I am not trying to tie these stories together.

In Racine Wisconsin right now there is a story about a 78 year old US citizen who is being deported because it has been discovered that when he was 17 years old he was a guard at a Nazi death camp. He immigrated to the US in the 1950s and lied on his application form. Had he admitted his true profession, he never would have been admitted into the US, nor gained citizenship. There is absolutely no proof that this man actually killed anyone, but he was present (at least in the camp) during at least one mass execution.

I telling this story only to point out once again the hipocracy of the left. Here in Wisconsin they are rallying around him, (many on the right are also), saying that he shouldn't be deported because he has, by all accounts, been an upstanding citizen since he came here.

My point?....Regardless of what Arnold did or did not say, how can the Left praise a true Nazi, yet say that Arnold is so awful by once stating he admired someones speaking ability?

I must confess, and I know this may get me kicked off FreeRepublic for life...

I have always admired Clintons speaking ability. : )

Clinton could really sling it. I couldn't tell if he was lying or not as long as I was hearing him on the radio, but if he was on tv I could always tell.

My radio-only BS detector was about 75% accurate for S(l)ick Willie (and no, I didn't always assume he was lying, either :-)

It seems the democrats are like the Nazis and pretty frightened by Arnold too.
