He's also on the cover of the September 2004 issue of Wired magazine. See article on page 127 "The New American Idol: Politics as usual? Hasta La Vista, baby. The radical center has flexed its muscle in California, short-circuiting the parties and going direct to the people. Now it could sweep the nation."

Unfortunately, the issue has 4 pages of Arnold and 8 pages on the MoveOn founders.

Wish I could find a larger photo but this is the best I could do. I was born in CA and lived there for 50 yrs. My kids still inhabit the state and I'm wishing Arnold the best in getting the state back up and running smoothly.
GO ARNOLD!

Whatever else you think of Arnold Schwarznegger, you have to hand it to him. The man is cool.

Which is why he'd be foolish to try to take on the EU bureaucrats, CA is bad enough, it's just asking too much from one man. LOL

He would be great though. Seriesly.

"And Maria would be a gorgeous First Lady of Europe."


You really thinks so? I have never understood why she is described as beautiful, I remember years ago one columnist said that without makeup she would be perfect for the part of the "wicked witch of the west" in the Wizard of Oz. I agree with this assessment.

What is "the oak", or why is this his nickname?

And, bodybuilders are not cool in any way shape or form.

Ugh. To everything in the article.

With friends like these,

Update: October 19, 2004 AD

He has announced that he SUPPORTS and is encouraging "Yes on 71."

This is the embryonic stem-cell $3 BILLION bond issue, paid for by California taxpayers. He is PRO-Abortion, and now PRO-embryonic stem-cell research, which requires the killing of human life. AND he wants to indebt California taxpayers to pay for this!

So, the sooner he gets off to Europe, the better.

Let the "Boy from Graz" take his PRO-Abortion, PRO-embryonic stem -cell research, PRO-active "Maria" and her DNC activism, PRO-Business skills to Europe.

Everything I wrote earlier still applies, but with one change:

He must return to Europe and run for President of the European Union of Socialist Republics immediately and not wait until 2010, as I previously posted.

He belongs in Strasbourg, not Sacramento.
