Just reported on CNN....Ahnold cannot remember any article he did 20
years ago. Paula was interviewing the reporter who wrote the article on her show.

Then the "breaking news" came in saying Ahnold had just commented in California, when asked about the article, that he does not recall that interview. (the one with drugs and group sex)

At first he said the crazy things he said and did years ago were because he was living his life, and not thinking of being a Governonr.
Then, he can't remember.

Maybe he has amnesia like ex- POW Lynch has.

5. Your name is similar to the guy who wrote the article....
he also said...it was taped..and he has the tapes.....and more recent articles tell what Ahnold's feelings about women are.

He suggested journalists look up some more recent interviews.

2. Pehaps His Earpiece Was "Acting Up" Again...
What's that...er...I can't hear you...

Can I have another "take" at that question, Paula?

3. Looks like he's being coached in the fine art of lying.
I don't recall that.

I didn't read the memo.

I saw it but I didn't read it.

:smoke:

4. I think this will sink him.
It won't matter if he remembers it or not. He's done.

6. Oh, Come On, People...
The interview in question was 26 years ago. How many interviews has he given since then? I'm no Arnold fan, and I'm very concerned about his description of what sounds an awful lot like a gang rape, but it is certainly understandable if he doesn't remember what he said in that interview.

The earpiece stunt is a different kettle of fish, however...:kick:

15. It's not "since then" -- it's interviews before then that matter
In 1977, Arnold was still an unknown. His first movie had just come out -- a semi-fictionalized documentary about bodybuilders. Oui was a major, national magazine, and the interview there has to have been a milestone for him. You don't forget something like that, no matter how famous you get afterwards. You're far more likely to buy twenty copies to paste in your scrapbook and send to all your friends.

If he hasn't reread it lately, he might not remember just how crudely he laid the whole thing out. But there's no way he doesn't remember the interview itself.

8. Will someone please show the lughead the "Oui" article?
Or is he pulling a Chimpy stunt. The Chimpster was too above it all "I won't answer those kind of questions" (concerning Bush's possible cocaine use).

Its just fine and dandy for a repuke to be festive....

10. Steroids and a low IQ might be to blame
I also get amnesia when I don't want to remember a bad experience or something that I did embarrassing in my past.

I've never liked Arnold he makes me want to :puke:.

12. They want him in so bad that he gets a free pass on everything
I hope he has to buy a part in the future and he doesn't get cast for anymore. God, I hope they black ball him in hollywood. You can tell I am in a wicked mood tonight right.

14. The guy's a drooling neandrothal
Just the fact that he can't speak English and is dumb as a post should be enough convince people to shun him like the plague. What a scarey couple the Ah-nalds are. Keeping plastic surgeons in business, that's for sure.

16. Arnold has always reminded me of a cave man
He looks like one and he talks likes one.
