Four more women have come forward to say that Arnold Schwarzenegger fondled, spanked or touched them in incidents they said took place as recently as 2000 and as long ago as 1979.

In all, 15 women have now accused the Republican candidate for governor of grabbing or groping them. On the campaign trail Saturday, Schwarzenegger denounced as a "puke campaign" news reports that he has behaved abusively toward women.

The women who agreed Saturday to tell their stories publicly are:

A 51-year-old woman who said Schwarzenegger pinned her to his chest and spanked her shortly after she met him at a West Los Angeles post-production studio in 2000.

Tamee Smith, 46, who said Schwarzenegger followed her into a bathroom on a studio lot and grabbed her breast during work on the movie "Predator" in 1986.

Jan Prinzmetal, 50, who said Schwarzenegger reached under her skirt and grabbed her bare buttocks outside a Venice gym in the mid-1980s.

Elizabeth Rothner, 45, who said Schwarzenegger lifted her sweatshirt at a popular Santa Monica bar in 1979, exposing her bare breasts before a crowd.

(Sorry.)

this kind of stuff.

Had an affair with a woman, she goes missing. Within a week the pukes had him tried and convicted in the media for murder even before a body was found. They destroyed that man with no evidence of anything other than being unfaithful to his wife.

I'm sick of the politics of personal destruction also but, these reptilian republicans aided and abetted by the media just won't quit. By all accounts so far, these women came forward on their own.

spank arnold, he's gotten away with this for too long. :spank:

This is criminal activity, not a smear. This is stuff that he should have spent time behind bars for. This man is also running for governor of the state of California.

I will NOT allow the Democratic Party to give this kind of activity a pass. This activity must NOT be condoned. The Democratic Party is NOT soft on crimial molesters and rapists.

and it IS abuse, not sex! Those women were violated; I'm sure they were very frieghtened at the time. Arnold is obviously addicted to feeling powerful and "dominating" others-not good qualities in a "leader". His actions are sickening in the extreme and are totally different then consentual sex between adults.

this behavior is predatory and it is harassment. These are not mutually consensual acts -- this is about Conan the Barbarian touching/intimidating/humiliating/bullying women in public places for his and his cronies' amusement. This man isn't making a pass or flirting, this asshole crosses the line and actually infringes upon the person. We teach our children that no one has the right to touch you if you don't want them to. I wish these women would be charges against this creep.

How many is this?

As recent as 2000.

Gee, Arnold, maybe no one called you to tell you that they were offended or even thought for a minute that you would "apologize." I think all these accusers pretty much got a clue as to how sorry you would have been.

gesh, I really dislike Maria more and more. SHE knows what she is married to. And now, her kids know what their father is. They have to all be completely traumatized.

Arnie better start buying votes, cause his movie career is over. Thank Gawd. No more horrible movies.

Terminator 2 Judgement Day was my favorite movie of all time. Now every time I watch it the groper stories will come to mind.

:(

Come on, with all the great works in cinema that are out there, you can't pick a better movie than T2?

have you seen her recent photos?

:spank:

LMAO - maybe he is a dem and doesn't know it.

a 'puke campaign' - he must not visit DU.

Let's invite him. bahahahahahahaha

as more women go public with their story, telling other women who fell in Arnie's wake that "you're not alone."

Orrin Hatch had better pack his bags and get on board "Predator One." Arnie's in trouble.

feels about all this? If anything comes of these allegations and Arnie is tried and found guilty, all those who support him are going to be wishing they'd never heard of the Terminator.

he still doesn't understand just how wrong his actions were.

since he still clings to the defense that "some of" the accusations are untrue, he should be at the very least required to identify which ones are true, and which are untrue.

he should be required to confront each allegation specifically. if he claims it's untrue, then he should be required to explicitly say so. if it's true, then he should be required to apologize and offer compensation to the victim, and demonstrate his understanding of why his actions were wrong, by giving an explanation. he should also be required to show how he's changed in such a way as to prevent further recurrences of the same behavior.

since he promises to be a champion of women, he should be required to state what he believes is the proper punishment for men who behave as he did. he should be required to detail his program for prevention of behavior such as his.

this is the bare minimum that should be required. will he do these things? of course not. now he's resorting to the classic "blame the victim" strategy, saying that the women should have confronted him.

for shame.

On the McGlaughin Goup, these stories are everywhere where in Hollywood. You go onto a set, and 5 or 6 people will have an Arnold story

not only will he not have a career in politics, he may not have a career at all! Personally, I don't think I could ever watch another Ahnold film and I liked a lot of his movies. But now, all I can think when I look at him is ... he's such a slime!

..Californians are fuckin' nuts if they vote for this goof.

I don't understand how come Maria stays with him, the groper has no respect for women whatsoever. Most likely though he is still going to become governor then I wonder what will be going on in the Governor's office, I'm sure that it will make Clinton's shananigans pale in comparison. :puke:
