3. Chimney contractor scam....

It makes for a great story even if it was a joke. What was not a joke was the fact that Arnold's masonry business was a clear violation of the terms of his H-2 visa — a deportable offense.

In several interviews over the years, Arnold has told the story of how he formed European Brick Works in Santa Monica with his friend Franco Columbu, a bodybuilder from Italy, after the Sylmar earthquake of 1971. "We had 16 people working for us, and we were all over town, building chimneys after the earthquake," Arnold told Interview magazine in 1985, leaving out a detail he told Johnny Carson four years earlier about his chimney-building days.

During his 1981 appearance, Arnold explained to Johnny how his bricklaying business worked. Franco and Arnold would call on a homeowner. Arnold, always good with the public, would keep the homeowner busy, discussing prices and such. "In the meantime," Arnold recounted, "Franco climbed up on the roof to check the chimney—and he, of course, is a very strong guy and a lifter—he pushed all the chimneys over so they fall down. So these people come and say, 'Oh, thank you so much for helping us. This could have fallen on somebody's head, you know. Thank you for doing it for us.'"

Johnny was impressed. "What a racket," he told the immigrant with a dream in his eye. "You go and push chimneys down and then rebuild them."

"Exactly," Arnold replied.

Unions Protest Governor's Proposals
As nurses gather in the Capitol, labor leaders say it's the start of a fight to keep pay and benefits.

January 19, 2005

SACRAMENTO — Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger faced one of the biggest protests of his political career Tuesday, when about 1,500 nurses marched on the Capitol behind black coffins and a New Orleans jazz band playing a death march.

They were upset about Schwarzenegger's emergency edict cutting back on the number of nurses required by law in hospitals and emergency rooms. The governor has said a nursing shortage required him to suspend the law, but the action has mobilized thousands against him.

Union leaders say Tuesday's protest was just the start of a large and coordinated movement against the governor. Schwarzenegger has made organized labor across the state — including road construction crews, hospital nurses, public school teachers and welfare bureaucrats — his biggest budget-cutting targets this year.

Under several Schwarzenegger proposals, private and public employee unions would face less pay, fewer vacation days, longer hours and bigger pension costs. Particularly with his plan to turn California's public pension system into a 401(k) plan fueled by employee contributions, he has unleashed one of the most aggressive campaigns targeting unions since the administration of former Gov. Pete Wilson.

Unions consider Schwarzenegger their biggest enemy and have begun organizing for an expensive fight. Both sides — union leaders and Schwarzenegger's political allies — are expected to spend tens of millions of dollars to run a series of TV ads in the months ahead pitching their agendas or defending themselves. Many of the governor's proposals must be put before voters, most likely in a special election this fall.

"A year ago, the governor acknowledged that public employees do good work," said J.J. Jelincic, president of the California State Employees Assn. "Now he has adopted what I think has to be a right-wing ideological position that public employees are no good."<snip>

8. According to a column in last week's LA Weekly

(written by Harold Meyerson) S's budget proposal undercuts benefits that would affect the impoverished children of our state. He proposes cutting welfare grants by 6.5% which would reduce the montly check to a family of three from $723 to $676, and eleminating the annual cost of living increases in welfare benefits as well.

He has also proposed a benefit freeze of the elderly and disabled. For the people that care for them, home health aides and the like he proposed slashing their annual wage from $10.10 to $6.75, the state minimum wage.

If anyone is interested, you may want to write this guy a letter (Harold Meyerson) as I plan to do. His column that included this information was titled--George and the Governator:So Why do Californians despise Bush and embrace Arnold? I think he needs to hear from some Californians that DON'T embrace Maria's man.

11. There are many of us with dual citizenship

And many of us who are working hard to improve California... and fighting against people like Arnold who are working to destroy California...

There are many things you can hold against him, but don't paint all of us with the same brush because of your anger...
