I know how Arnold can get money for California
Simply have the U.S. invade California. Bush will then demand at least $100 Billion for reconstruction.

The other states will be lining up for this.

1. Won't work.
With Davis gone they can't declare CA being run by a dictator.

3. He could declare California a "Grope Free Zone"
meaning that groping is free, and free from prosecution. The state could then run tour busses to hot areas for groping, and raise taxes on car rentals and airport fees to generate income from all the Arnold wannabees that flock to LA to get in on the Gov's action.

6. The meeting made me want to puke...
Edited on Fri Oct-17-03 03:38 AM by Andromeda
:puke: Bush attempted to tell some jokes about how "similar" he and Schwarzenegger are. Bush said that neither he nor Ahhhnold speaks the English language very well which happens to be pathetically true. Then he said that they both married women more higher classed than themselves, or something like that. That certainly wouldn't be hard to find since just about anybody could be considered "higher classed". The last "joke" was very unfunny: Bush said they both had big biceps.

The thing that he missed saying is that they are both stupid and corrupt but that would have just generated some agreement with a mixed audience but not too many laughs.

This recall election has just about made me lose my freaking mind. I just can't understand how people can be so sucked into believing that an aging movie star who basically can't act, whose career was on the decline and who has had no previous political experience and who has never been elected to public office could be a good governor.

Never overestimate the intelligence of the average voter.

8. Bush will bail them out. He's shown no ability to restrain....
spending and California has 55? electoral votes, which would all but guarantee his re-election. It'll be a clear-cut vote buying scheme of the worst sort.

So, come April 15, feel free to send your tax payment directly to California.
