Why are there two posts on the front page that seem to mitigate the Arnold

[AP]

blowback for his improprieties?

I mean, this is what the media has been doing throughout this recall campaign? Why are we forgiving Arnold too? Is the problem that the media spin is so pervasive that we internalize it and replicate it without noticing it?

Is the guy such an effective fascist that we get caught up in the facade and don't realize what we're doing?

I mean, c'mon, this guy is all about shifting wealth to the top, and protecting the big business hegemony in CA, and helping Bush win in 2004. He's been running on the message that his apparent social liberalism is the important thing, and he's totally cloaking what he really stands for.

That's he's a pig is a key part of the fakery. He has no character. The media is spinning madly for him. And people here are foregiving him and commending him for how he's dealing with this. Hello?

3. Me either!

He just says he's rowdy and I'm sure we are to "get over it". Right now there are protests being organized for tomorrow in the SF area by women to slam this pig as he does his rounds. (Sorry real pigs, I like you oink, oink). Just heard it on Pacifica Radio in Berkely. Women and men who really love women oughta get out and give him the Sacramento Special: tomato throwing! Details on protest being processed now.
