Notice something odd with this letter that the Governator sent to the California State Assembly when he vetoed a bill recently?



If you can't find it, I'll help you out....
 


Way to go, California!

That's Arnold.

He's a crappy Governor by the way. Or Governator.

Good stuff there. Glad to see Arnold isn't taking any **** from anyone on the Left coast.

Heh.

Even though Arnold's a RINO, that's somewhat entertaining. But as usual, it's just grandstanding coming from him. He went back on his no-sign water-crisis 'pledge', so (as always) you can't really trust a word he says.

Sacramento is a glimpse of what the entire US can expect after so many years of a Democrat majority: mismanagement, fraud, abuse and a debt so tremendous that even career politicians will eventually jump the sinking ship and actually ADMIT there's a problem.

Witness this astounding video of Bill Lockyer, the Cali State Treasurer speaking the FIRST common sense that's been heard on the floor of the state legislature in decades. A Democrat calling out his own party.

If it wasn't so blatantly obvious that Democrats have bankrupted the state to the extent that it simply can't be further ignored, swept under the carpet, blamed on everyone else, etc. (IE: all the usual tools of the career politician nitwit and their sycophants among the public) you'd simply NEVER, EVER, in a million years witness an exchange like this:

YouTube - California Treasurer Spanks Legislature

What I'd love to see: someone with the guts to go to DC and tell the crooks there the same thing- in congress, and the white house.

I actually still kind of like Arnold. The problem is that he's saddled with possibly the worst legislature in the entire country, which is essentially content to sit around and watch while the state falls apart around them. Here's only so much the G-800 can do when faced with such a huge wall of apathy.

It would be funnier if California wasn't broke.





Wait, it is that funny.

I guess I just don't have a sense of humor... I find this childish.

Quite the contrary. I just find the act itself to be self-indulgent and unnecessary.

Just throwing a guess out there. It is unnecessary, but really, in a game as fake as politics, its nice to see someone show off their true feelings in a clever manner.
