Hope Arnold didn't think we had forgotten about this?
http://www.democraticunderground.com/top10/01/top10_2001_16.html

Arnold Schwarzenegger - RETURN! Weeks on chart: 3 - The yawn-fest that is Arnold Schwarzenegger's on-again-off-again love affair with the idea of running for Governor of California is... off again. Last week the hunky Austrian pervert announced that due to the importance of receiving a multi-million dollar payoff for making "Terminator 3" he would sadly not be available to serve the Californian public this time around. Coincidentally, the announcement came just one day after Arnold learned that the National Enquirer would be publishing front-page allegations of his extramarital affair with a mysterious 41-year-old brunette. A Schwarzenegger spokesperson promptly came out with the tediously predictable announcement that - surprise! - the allegations had nothing to do with his decision not to run for office. Especially the allegation that the mystery woman first had sex with Arnold when she was 16 (in the interests of full disclosure - he would have been 28).

1. I can't wait to hear how his 'personal' life is not our business.

Also, since when are repugs who have been so anti-Hollywood suddenly embraced AS? Hypocritcal bastards.

2. Schwarzenegger has nothing to say other than:
"Pump you up", "Aw's ta-lay-veese-ta baby", and "I'll be back" crap-lines from his movies which is what it is all about: Arnold Schwarzenegger self promotion of Arnold Schwarzenegger. It is a closed-loop at best. If any of that equals coherent puplic policy I would be amazed ~

3. I think I read somewhere...
...that Arnold has an early film that he's not too proud of. He claims he bought the master and the rights, but what if someone has a copy and is waiting for a moment like this?

5. Media already "softening the blow"...
Just heard the talking heads on CNN discussing the Schwarzenegger announcement (think it was Miles whateverhisname) who rolled out this litany of "professions" Arnold has had, and he mentioned "porn star" in such a matter-of-fact manner as to try and defuse any potential fallout.

He made it sound as if it were a real nonstarter and there was no point of making any kind of issue out of it.

Compare and contrast the way they handle this little bit of nastiness in the man's past and the way they handled Gene Robinson's past... "website linked to pornography, inappropriate touching of a parishioner", and on and on ad nauseum.

More damning evidence of that "liberal media bias", huh? :grr:

24. When did we start considering things like that bad?
If Clinton stuffing a cigar in the wrong end was cool, what's wrong with a carrot.

8. I like Arnold
but he is pretty stupid to think he is gonna step into this mess and come out untainted. Everything he has done is fair game now. His affairs, his steroid use, his weed smoking, everything. If he had any sense he would have waiting for the general election not this charade.

again, who cares about personal life, but isn't it about time these hypocrites begin reaping what they have sown?

from the post, taken from story linked

It all went well until I asked a question that obviously upset him. It was about a nude picture of him a colleague said she had seen in a German magazine. Arnold, his smile now gone, said he was devoted to making bodybuilding a legitimate sport and would never cheapen its, or his, image by posing in the nude. Chastened, I asked a few more quick questions, then ended the interview......

.......Back at the paper, I told my colleague that Schwarzenegger denied the nude photo story. To prove she was telling the truth, she brought the magazine to work the next day. There he was, smiling that gap-toothed smile, full-frontally naked as a jaybird. It wasn’t a snapshot, but what looked like a studio pose. It was later published in America in Spy Magazine – along with Arnold’s jokey explanation of it.


so sick of these creeps.

PS how bout a debate between arnold and arianna?

13. Would it be too far afield to think that

23. you might be onto something
It's all been very very odd. Arnold suddenly running, Issa crying for the cameras and dropping out, Riordan also dropping out ...

It's just bizarre, and there's definitely an "invisible hand" at work here.

I can't believe they would actually think Arnold could win? I mean, he's gonna get so slammed that this career AND his movie career and probably his marriage are gonna be over.

So what's really happening?

Just some meat thrown to the dogs of the press, to keep them off the Iraqgate hunt?

Or something else?

21. Was the other guy his work out partner Franco Columbo?
I heard the stories, but that doesn't matter to me. They are just stories. I want to know his stand on the issues, and what qualifications he brings to the job. What ius his leadership style? Can he work with the massive egos in politics?

16. dizzying heights of sillyness
the US is being lifted to. During the, ahem, election, I thought "this is absurd". Now we are at Monty Python level, only it's scary not funny :eyes:

18. Thank-you, California!
For providing the rest of us with what has been, and is sure to continue to be some very good entertainment. It's been fun watching your state spin faster and faster around the bowl- and the election of the arnold should be that last little bit that sends the state right down the tube.
But you do have a little time, once Davis is out, The Junta will do all it can to keep your little state afloat until Nov.2004.
