Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bob Grady of the Carlyle Group...

I saw Bob Grady shaking hands with Anrold at a campaign stop today on TV . Bob Grady is the Managing Director in Venture Capital at The Carlyle Group. I used work with him at the now defunct Robertson Stephens Investmen Bank. See his bio.My God, he was/is one pretentious, stuck up asshole.

I feel so much better about Swharzenegger knowing he's surrounding himself with people like this. </sarcasm>

Here is a picture of this asshat.

Also he introduced Arnold at an event in in Carpinteria, CA the other day.
"Bob Grady, a financial investor, introduced Schwarzenegger to the crowd as someone who recognizes that the environment is not a partisan issue.

"Ladies and gentlemen, green Republicans have a new champion, and his name is Arnold Schwarzenegger," Grady said. see here

Strange that Bob Grady has gone green as he never was before now.


on edit: spelling

you know, he looks like one pretentious, stuck up asshole :hi:

according to Arnold's definition.

After all, corporations do have interests but they'r not special interests. They just want to confiscate wealth and power, and profit from war. Also corporations are a minority.

Unions otoh, representing a majority, they want workers rights, good healthcare and education. Obviousely those are quite special interests.

allow management to dictate everything and you'll be fine...

March in step and repeat after me...conformity is patriotic.

Now go fight,like good Christian soldiers, we need the oil.

I've posted this a cazillion times and I'm mostly ignored. I'm beginning to think my mind is just screwy. Carlyle invested heavily in India IT in 2000, probably the years before and after too. George Bush lifted sanctions on India right after Sept 11. He said it was so it wouldn't look like he was playing favorites between Pakistan and India. Now jobs are flooding to India and Carlyle is undoubtedly getting very fat. And Arnold is running for Governor of the state arguably hit hardest, because of the loss of revenue in large part due to the loss of those exact same jobs. I think it's a huge connection, I don't get why nobody else does.

Not as long as George jr. is in office. The Carlyle Group with daddy Bush on the board, the Saudi's, (perhaps the bin Laden family) supported by the WTO and the IMF

It's bad enough to know this is a Bush operation. Now they've gotten so bold that they're just sending Carlyle corporate heads tooling around California, campaigning with Arnold. It's just right in your face, it's unbelievable.

Until the left gets around to starting their own version of Fox, we aren't going to get anything truthful about Republicans out there.

"Most media are owned by Republican conservatives," (Associated Press CEO) Curley said.

Maybe we could band together and hire a skywriter. Or one of those airplanes that flies banners behind their plane with pictures of this guy and Carlyle Group and Bush Money Machine and Took Jobs to India. It's driving me NUTS!!!

It makes no sense.
