Anybody else pissed that Arnold pushed Iran nuke story off the front page?







Aug. 6 — There was a ceremony in Tehran two weeks ago to welcome the newest missile to Iran’s arsenal — a missile designed in North Korea. The CIA says the new mobile missile could deliver a nuclear payload over a range from Cairo, Egypt, to Bombay, India, by the end of the decade if Iran is not stopped from developing a nuclear weapon. But U.S. officials and foreign intelligence services told NBC News that Iran is within just a few years of building a nuclear bomb.

I thought the ad nauseam Kobe coverage killed that and every other important story of the day.

5. All the papers do it. The Orlando Sentinel the other day...
buried ticklish information about Cheney on page 17, and put a ridiculous article on page one about how Graham would lose Florida because Republicans would vote for Bush. Heeeellllo. Who the hell cares who the Republicans will vote for.

8. Arnold is from Austria
Does he have relatives who were Nazis?


Choice quote:
"It is as satisfying to me as coming is - you know, as having sex with a woman and coming. So can you believe how much I am in heaven? I am, like, getting the feeling of coming in the gym. I'm getting the feeling of coming at home. I'm getting the feeling of coming backstage when I pump up.When I pose out in front of 5.000 people I get the same feeling. So I'm coming day and night."
(about bodybuilding and sex)

10. I'm not upset...
This is vital war propaganda. Anything that distracts the warmongers is fine with me.
