SACRAMENTO (AP) - Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger will end his relationship with two fitness magazines that rely heavily on advertising from nutritional supplement companies, he said Friday in an interview with The Associated Press.

He said he will relinquish his title as executive editor of Muscle & Fitness and Flex magazines and will forego any compensation.

"I don't want to be paid," Schwarzenegger said in a telephone interview with the AP.

1. Took longer than I thought it would

Although, it would have made an excellent re-election issue.

[Botany]

3. Still is ......

.... he only did this after the $ and his connections came out.

Arnold what is the difference between you and a rented mule?

You shouldn't beat a rented mule.

[neuvocat]

4. Especially when the supplements might be outlawed.

There are a lot of claims that are made that just can't be proven.

[Tempest]

13. The Gropinator vetoed a bill which would have restricted their sale

I hope the bill is reintroduced and I'd like to see him veto it this time.

[longship]

2. He's toast anyway.

Californians aren't dumb. They realize that he's a lightweight. No way is he gonna be reelected.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

11. Californian's aren't dumb...

...anymore.

[Carla in Ca]

23. I didn't vote for him, and a lot are sorry they did. Edit to....

"(Some of the) Californians (who voted for him) aren't dumb...anymore

There, that's better:-)

[DBoon]

24. "Californians end ties to Schwartnegger"

the headline I'd like to see

[Carla in Ca]

22. Don't you worry...we are on the case!

:hi:

[Megahurtz]

5. He already was paid.

Off.

6. Schwarzennegger is good for California

With the ways he has tried to screw teachers, police, and firefighters, he has re-energized the Labor movement. So many unrelated Union members joined the protests regarding schools and pensions. Very good brotherly/sisterly feelings within Labor; not so hot feelings towards the Gropenator.

14. Another uniter, not a divider, pledged to restore honor and dignity to . .

oh, forget it. Arnold did the right thing, and now it's up to the voters of California to do the same and send him lots of boxes of cigars to smoke. Lots and lots and lots.

7. Cool (nt)

8. Only cause he was caught.

There's more.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

9. A man can't even make a few bucks off his muscels no more.

[Voltaire99]

10. There go the standards at "Flex"

Look for spelling errors to start creeping into the monosyllabic words. ;-)

[Tempest]

12. It's too late

He already vetoed a bill which would have put restrictions on the sale of supplements.

They got what they wanted from him.

Now I'd like to see the Democrats reintroduce the bill and dare the Gropinator to veto it this time.

[WhiteTara]

15. too little to late

you scumbag. In a real election you wouldn't have gotten to be dogcatcher.

[Mark E. Smith]

16. Steroid Arnie is so toast

Now he doesn't want the money. Does that mean he is going to un-veto the bill that keeps junk muscle pills from being regulated?

By the way, isn't $8 million the national bribe record?

[VegasWolf]

17. Arnie is toast. If he still had any credibility he would have blown right

through this little non-issue.

[dArKeR]

18. Republicans seek office for a profit motive and not to help the

United States of America. I don't think it's a non-issue. It should be made an issue.

He doesn't want the money so why didn't he tell the board that at the original contract negociations?

[Up2Late]

19. This is just "UnBEElevABul

Who wood have thought it in COLLeeForNeeAh.:shrug:

[Disturbed]

20. He got caught and was advised to...

cut the the damage. He will make up for it when he either doesn't run again, which I suspect and hope happens or runs and loses.
