Arnold hosting season premiere of SNL?
Just heard this on the radio that Arnold is hosting the season premiere in a couple weeks. How pathetic!I'm sure there will be plenty of Gray Davis jokes,but no Arnold jokes!I hope Arnold flubs his lines!

1. Maybe he'll grab the female stars' the way he did the London TV anchors.
You know, it's difficult to even comment on that man's behavior without "talking dirty" more than I am comfortable with in a forum with thousands of members. Let me just say I'd enjoy an opening scene with Ahnnold dressed up like Molly Ivins' description of him - a long sheath stuffed with walnuts.

2. He must be promissing the big media companies
no reappraisal of their property values, regressive taxation, etc.

5. Since it's broadcast TV, it seems, yes, if they ask, they should
get the time.

Incidentally, yesterday, I witnessed something shocking. While the Arnoldless-debates were on one station, the local news did their stories about the debates and they were all about ARNOLD. They had his face and his name on the screen for minutes. He wasn't even at the debates, but the local stations managed to turn that into a story featuring him.

The media is SO UNBELIEVABLY FUCKING ON ARNOLD'S SIDE. They have zero shame.

6. When GE buys Universal, they're going to be a huge property owner in CA
and they're going to have many high-income earners, and a very large corporation paying corporate tax in CA.

They desperately want a governor who is going to keep their tax burden low low low, and shift all the burden on to the middle and working class.

8. Something I noticed in Arnold's "crowds"
and I think you can apply it to SNL. Just today I saw the admiring throngs going apeshit when he high-fived their hands----a good, good share are tenny bobbers!! That crowd was filled with people too young to vote but now have access to a 'star' who has to be out in public selling himself. Among other young people old enough to vote, I wonder how many will take the time, go get registered, etc. for their Arnold????

9. I don't think its true. . .
. . .not only might it violate fair time laws. All SNL hosts must spend the week in New York, I doubt Arnold would spend a week in New York in the middle of a campaign.

10. still no letters to the editor of the LA Times about Arnold's harassment
I am stunned.

How many days later from the Oui interview exposure
and no letters in the Times, which would be a natural
since Ahnold lives here.

No outrage that he grabs women's breasts without permission,
that the gang bang may very well have been a gang rape.
Republicans have really outdone themselves this time
and I hope that when this is all over, they will have
finally outdone the party in California.

11. I hope the women wear flak jackets
and say something about his treatment of women.
