Why is Nazi Schwarzenegger given hours of free airtime on MSNBC?!?
Edited on Mon Aug-11-03 11:29 AM by Lori Price CLG
Nazi Coupmeister Tool Arnold Schwarzenegger has been speaking for over one hour on MoreSh*tNoBrainsCable. Yet, the 'network' cut out of President Gore's classic speech on Thursday, August 7, after approximately five minutes!! :mad:

We are SUNK with this Reichwing media.

Insert 'Revolution Now!' comment here...

13. Why is he aligning himself with the Republicans?.....this does not add up
to me....He knows how the Republicans cut programs that help the underprivileged children that he is trying to help....Why would he not be a Democrat if he wants these projects which are dear to his heart? There is something fishy about it to me...From the things I've heard that he is for....gay rights, abortion rights etc...there seems NO SENSE in him being a Republican?????

59. His rationale for being Repub
He claims that when he first arrived in the US in 1968, he watched a debate between the Presidential candidates, Democrat Hubert Humphrey and Republican Richard Nixon. He said that Humphrey's views reminded him too much of the socialism he left in Europe while Nixon's anti-communist, free market philosophy appealed to him. So he chose the GOP!

P.S. Every article I've read on Ah-nuld makes at least passing reference to his support for gay rights, abortion rights and other social liberal stances....has anyone ever heard this lummox actually espouse this anywhere? I fear the unknown here, as opposed to known maniac social conservatives like Bill Simon

P.P.S. Even though I think his candidacy is a sad joke, he doesn't deserve to be called a Nazi. Smearing him with this epithet makes us no better than the usual racist demogogues offered up by the GOP.

14. Bravo
Let's get the guy on the merits and not this ridiculous Nazi slander game. It's as counter-productive as comparing Bush to Hitler. If the cream of Leftist thinkers in America has to resort to this over-the-top name calling to make the point that the Right is taking this country in a terribly wrong direction then we deserve to be ignored.

They had a program on television about it and it showed a picture of his father that even had the same type of mustache as Hitler - looked like a twin! They said he was a 'policeman' and strict disciplinarian and that he had been a Nazi for 'awhile' so eat your words and learn the facts about this aSSwhole!

Now we defend this Nazi pig in hiding eh? :mad:

"You are responsible for your own actions, not those of your ancestors."


Then you are responsible for continuing to squat on Native Indian land. Just because some of our ancestors ethnically cleansed the Indians, stole their land and squatted on it doesn't mean that we have to squat. Right?

79. I can prove Nazism is inherited
The proof is the village idiot of Crawford, Texas.

His granddaddy was a Nazi.

His daddy was a Nazi.

He, along with all his brothers, are Nazis.

And I'm pretty sure the Bush daughters will turn out to be swastika-clad tyrants too, unless underage drinking (in the case of Dubya's kids) and sneaking coke into rehab (for Noelle) can remove those Nazi tendencies.

I'm not sure whether environment or heredity caused the recurrent Nazism in the Bush family, but you can't deny it's there.

Edited on Mon Aug-11-03 11:37 AM by DagmarK
And that's what this is.

A big circus to keep people's minds off REALITY (and steal the governorship at the same time). A win-win.

The only thing I can think to do is to have EVERY SINGLE dem activist physically go to Calif and canvas the entire state - top to bottom.

And the message is: ENRON/CHENEY..........

and this should have happened to avert to recall in the first place......

And why Davis isn't calling this for what it is (coverup for Enron/Cheney) makes me think that maybe he really WAS in on it!!!!!!

Schwarzenegger is a tool of the Bush dictatorship. I have never seen more than thirty second soundbites of Gray Davis, but have seen thousands of hours (barf) of Schwarzenegger. Why is that???
BTW ,MSNBC just gave a Kobe update, more distractions...

I live in CT, so I do not have access to CA local media, but have cable television.

11. Calling Arnold a nazi is a mistake.
The wingers are pissed that he is more liberal (as in socially liberal) than they. Better to divide Arnold's base than to call him names over some obscure association with Kurt Waldheim. Keep on referring to Arnold as a liberal.

31. Apparently, you have no idea what you're talking about
So, according to the link you supplied,

has proclaimed his disgust for Nazism, raised money for education about the Holocaust, traveled to Israel (where he met with then-Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin), and given generously to the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles, which in 1997 bestowed on him its National Leadership Award. “He wants no truck with … Waldheim,” the Wiesenthal Center’s Rabbi Marvin Hier told the Jerusalem Post. “He probably did not have any clue as to the seriousness of the allegations against Waldheim at that time . To suggest that Arnold’s an anti-Semite is preposterous. He’s done more to further the cause of Holocaust awareness than almost any other Hollywood star.”

Yet despite that, you label him a Nazi, and want to hang him for one silly quote, and a 'tool' of the Bush admin, although he is independently wealthy and needs nothing from them.

Tell me, Einstein, should we do the same to a prominent Democrat, Jimmy Carter, for dubiously having lavished far more praise on Ceausescu and Kim Il-Sung?

37. See Spot run, and see my clarification. Duh.
Firstly, you omitted the portion of the article wherein dumbbell Swarzenegger was photographed w. Jorg Haider: "Yet the rumors continued after Schwarzenegger was photographed last year with Jorg Haider, leader of Austria's extreme right-wing Freedom Party. Haider has praised Hitler's "sensible policies" and also been filmed at a secret SS reunion." http://www.jpost.com/com/Archive/05.Jan.1997/Features/Article-13.html


BTW, did you read these? Swarzenegger is a plant for your apparent hero, Bush. He has had several meetings w. Karl Rove, etc. Here is a link to a Swarzenegger mtg. w. Ken Lay, Richard Riordon, Michael Milken, and Karl Rove, from 2002:

10 Questions Senators Should Ask Ken Lay Even If He Takes the 5th California Consumer Group Says Enron, Lay Must Be Held Responsible For Energy Deregulation Fallout (The Foundation for Taxpayer & Consumer Rights News Release, February 12, 2002) "10. What was the purpose and substance of the May 11, 2001 meeting with then-Mayor Richard Riordan, former junk bond king Michael Milken, and Arnold Schwarzenegger? Lawmakers should obtain the materials Ken Lay provided at that meeting."

Memo casts recall as windfall for Bush Grassroots appeal to 'women against Davis' --While White House and national GOP officials insist they won't get involved in the California recall, a memo obtained by The Chronicle outlines a Republican strategy to oust Gov.

Memo casts recall as windfall for Bush
Grassroots appeal to 'women against Davis'

While White House and national GOP officials insist they won't get involved in the California recall, a memo obtained by The Chronicle outlines a Republican strategy to oust Gov. Gray Davis and help President Bush before the 2004 presidential election.

The memo by California GOP organizer Julie Leitzell, who heads a political action committee called CommonSense Direction, says the Oct. 7 recall election presents an opportunity to target disaffected voters -- particularly women.

"We will work outside of the campaigns and outside of the party," the memo to Republican activists says. "None of the candidates will be attending, as we want to make sure the media are steered toward the 'common sense women against Davis' angle."

Leitzell's memo clearly suggests the imprimatur of the White House...

27. MSNBC=Fox Lite
MSNBC used to be good. Watched it alot after 9/11. But now they want to ape Fox and become more right-wing. Too bad. I like Lester Holt. And Ashleigh is pretty easy on the eyes.

Other than that, they're terrible. That Scarborough show is the worst piece of sh*t I've ever seen. What the hell kind of drugs has HE been taking?!?!?! Absolutely awful. Fliped past it last week and that scary Coulter woman was on. Made me want to throw my TV out the window.

Side note: Why the hell is Coulter even on TV? She's a moron that's so lacking of material she had to dig up the corpse of McCarthy. I've got news for ya, Annie: Even McCarthy himself knew the red stuff was a crock. He just did it to get publicity and have a platform to run on (pre-fab housing just wasn't as strong an issue come election time). You just wrote a whole book trying to legitimize a bogus PR stunt.

Kinda describes Coulter's career.

28. Clarification. When I use the term 'Nazi', I don't mean 'party member...'
I view certain members of the Bush dictatorship as 'Nazis,' such as Karl Rove, John AshKKKroft, Bush himself. OF COURSE, they are not 'card carrying members' of the Nazi party, and would vigorously repudiate such accusations. Same w. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

I view those who have tried to subvert elections and destroy our democracy as 'Nazis'.

Other than existing as, what I view, an insipid moron, I would conclude that Swarzenegger is NOT a 'card carrying member' of the Nazi party. Swarzenegger is, however, an ignorant tool of Karl Rove's regime. I view that as one and the same, but I concede that others may not.

Thanks,
-Lori

happen to be. And they happen to be "Nazi" style reactionaries. If you were refer to Bu$h Inc. as American`s then radical. Is probably the better term. Yeah radical psuedo american nazi`s. Yep that about sums up the puke party including arnold. Real Americans count one anothers votes. The GOP can only lose if that happens.

49. Ha!ha!ha! I always wondered what kind of people trust Kerry after his vote
for war and telling us to get over the stolen election. Now I know: people who think Arnold will become Dem. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

58. You assume too much...
Repuke: why not post your pro-GOP posts on Freerepublic.com

I suggest you actually know who it is you're talking to before attempting to communicate. It would your posts so much more pertinent.

WHY would idiot Swarzenegger be brought into a mtg. w. Repigs Ken Lay, Riordon, and Karl Rove? WHAT could he possibly have to discuss with them?


You tell me. You're implying that there is some hint of malfeasance or sinister collusion, and I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt until someone can come up with something other than histrionic speculation and charges of being a Nazi from the movie business in bed with corrupt energy executives.

70. The California recall is a liberal provision in the Constitution
Nothing Nazi about it. Before you apply the "Nazi" label, I suggest that you learn a little bit about history.

The California recall is a liberal provision in the Constitution. It was made part of the Constitution back in 1911 as part of a liberal move to get rid of bad politicians.

Unlike Bush v. Gore, the recall does not "subvert" elections or "destroy" democracy. Like it or not, the recall is Constitutional. If you don't like it, change the law!

CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION
ARTICLE 2 VOTING, INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM, AND RECALL

SEC. 13.
Recall is the power of the electors to remove an elective
officer.

CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION
ARTICLE 2 VOTING, INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM, AND RECALL

SEC. 14. (a) Recall of a state officer is initiated by delivering
to the Secretary of State a petition alleging reason for recall.
Sufficiency of reason is not reviewable. Proponents have 160 days to
file signed petitions.

(b) A petition to recall a statewide officer must be signed by
electors equal in number to 12 percent of the last vote for the
office, with signatures from each of 5 counties equal in number to 1
percent of the last vote for the office in the county. Signatures to
recall Senators, members of the Assembly, members of the Board of
Equalization, and judges of courts of appeal and trial courts must
equal in number 20 percent of the last vote for the office.

(c) The Secretary of State shall maintain a continuous count of
the signatures certified to that office.

CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION
ARTICLE 2 VOTING, INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM, AND RECALL

SEC. 15. (a) An election to determine whether to recall an officer
and, if appropriate, to elect a successor shall be called by the
Governor and held not less than 60 days nor more than 80 days from
the date of certification of sufficient signatures.

(b) A recall election may be conducted within 180 days from the
date of certification of sufficient signatures in order that the
election may be consolidated with the next regularly scheduled
election occurring wholly or partially within the same jurisdiction
in which the recall election is held, if the number of voters
eligible to vote at that next regularly scheduled election equal at
least 50 percent of all the voters eligible to vote at the recall
election.

(c) If the majority vote on the question is to recall, the officer
is removed and, if there is a candidate, the candidate who receives
a plurality is the successor. The officer may not be a candidate,
nor shall there be any candidacy for an office filled pursuant to
subdivision (d) of Section 16 of Article VI.

33. "Nazi"??
Calling him a "Nazi" is the kind of ad-him B.S. behaviour I'd expect from repukes.

After seeing that the rest of your post was ignored.

40. He's not a Nazi
Stop saying that. Visiting the sins of the father on the son is a regressive mode of thought. The casual labeling of anyone to the right as a "nazi" or "facist" dilutes the power of those words.

I seriously doubt he believes jews to be the root of all evil, deserving of extermination. That's a core Nazi tenet. Given what he's said, he seems more like a closet libertarian.

Anyway, this is all a tempest in a teapot. With Ueberroth, McClintock and Simple Simon in the race, draining right wing votes from him, he doesn't stand a chance. Stop worrying about it so much!

In fact, this may be a huge win for the national democrats: if Bush supports him, or it's shown that he encouraged him to run, it will only alienate his right wing base. It's like an effective wedge issue dropped into the demos lap.

71. The media is controlled by anti-American interests
Edited on Tue Aug-12-03 01:56 AM by jfkennedy
After Kennedy was shot around 40 years ago conservatives in this country (Republicans) and conservatives around the world in countries that are anti-American (perhaps not officially but unofficially) conspired to destroy democracy. Where best to start liberals first then the Democratic Party itself. Now after the end of World War 2 most of the money the Nazis made from the war went to Nazis that fled to Latin America, with hundreds of billions of dollars. All these Nazis are dying like flies from old age, so they have to give their billions to someone so they have been giving it to the Republicans in the United States. The Media as far as I know is not controlled by United States interests. Most of the people that own the media could probably care less if the US was nuked off the map.

After the 2000 election most of these issues came to the floor, so they stole the election for fear of Gore. Gore would of put them thru the wringer.

So now that they have power they are just putting all assets from the Nazi party into place. Why do you think Cheney and Bush were up in a plane all of the week following 9/11. They fully expected their assets to Nuke a major city.

Hitler would of liked nothing more then to see us Nuked.

There is also no reason to wait for some magical report to explain 9/11. 9/11 occurred simply because of the fanaticism of the Republican Party in this country and because of the fanaticism of other parties in Asia and the Middle East such as the Taliban.

They are so alike the Taliban and the Republicans that they know that a war between them will get themselves some turf in the Global scheme of things.

These conflicts have been going on for at least the past 40 years behind the scenes but now they are in the open and they will not stop because if they stopped there would be no need to go to the Republicans for peace and security.

72. Excellent points...
Bush's grandfather worked hand-in-hand with the Nazis; no one hand selected for a national position by Karl Rove/Repukes would be antagonistic to the Nazi point of view.

Anybody paying attention to things at a high level, in an unemotional way, can see the patterns you're describing.
