Liberal star may stand to terminate Arnie's career

WARREN BEATTY is considering a challenge to Arnold Schwarzenegger for the governorship of California next year in what could be a battle of the celebrities.

Speculation over Mr Beatty’s political ambitions began after he addressed a nurses’ union on Thursday. To wild applause and chants of “run, Warren, run”, Mr Beatty, a long-time liberal campaigner, promised to campaign against Mr Schwarzenegger’s “insulting and bullying” attacks on nurses, teachers and firefighters.

Mr Schwarzenegger, 58, a Republican and naturalised American who harnessed his Hollywood star appeal to win a “recall election ” victory two years ago, recently said that he would run again for the governorship. Polls show the one-time Mr Universe’s popularity’s to be dwindling, though the Austrian-born Mr Schwarzenegger still hopes to change the constitution so that he may one day be able to run for the White House.

Mr Beatty, 68, has been involved in politics since 1968, when he campaigned with Robert Kennedy, who was assassinated that year. He also supported Senator George McGovern.

1. Any body that can beat Arnold is what I want

Arnold said something to the effect that, " he hasn't had a hit movie so I'm not worried about him."

How stupid,

Arnold has got to go.

2. Ahnuld is a warning to others

Don't let the candidate being a celebrity blind you to the fact that he/she is a Republican.

Republicans only do 5 things:

Lie
Cheat
Steal
Kill
Repeat



So far, Der Gropenfuhrer has got the first 3 mastered

3. I've heard for several years Mr. Beatty might be politically inclined

If so, the best of luck to him. Kicking Schwarzendoodledingleberrypbfpthhhht out of office shouldn't be too hard...

. . .brains over brawn!

:kick:

5. Beatty will get all the votes from women who like classy men

Ahnold will get all the votes from women who appreciate men who smell like horses.

Should be a real contest.

6. Hey I live in California!!!

I don't want another actor to be gov!!! This is nothing against Warren Beatty. I actually met him at a benefit I was working on about two years ago. He was hungry and just put some stuff together for himself from the craft service table instead of making us send someone out to get him food. He is a total class act. Have him run for mayor first... then let's see how he does and consider gov.

7. As a native Californian, I can get behind Warren Beatty.

I say go for it!

8. Bullworth vs. The Terminator

Bullworth: Yo, everybody gonna get sick someday / But nobody knows how they gonna pay / Health care, managed care, HMOs / Ain't gonna work, no sir, not those / 'Cause the thing that's the same in every one of these / Is these motherfuckers there, the insurance companies!
Cheryl and Tanya: Insurance! Insurance!
Bullworth: Yeah, yeah / You can call it single-payer or Canadian way / Only socialized medicine will ever save the day! Come on now, lemme hear that dirty word - SOCIALISM!
-----------------------
Bullworth: I think it'd be a good idea to say "I'm sorry", huh?
Kid #1: Oh man, I waited my whole life for this moment!
Cop: I'm... sorry.
Bullworth: Say "No problem, Officer".
Kid #2: Go fuck your mama, you fucking pig cocksucker!
Bullworth: That's good enough.

Angry black woman: Are you sayin' the Democratic Party don't care about the African-American community?
Bullworth: Isn't that OBVIOUS? You got half your kids are out of work and the other half are in jail. Do you see ANY Democrat doing anything about it? Certainly not me! So what're you gonna do, vote Republican? Come on! Come on, you're not gonna vote Republican! Let's call a spade a spade!
