Schwarzenegger appears at Mr. Olympia event in Vegas

LAS VEGAS - California Gov.-elect Arnold Schwarzenegger showed he still has a soft spot for body building, popping in unexpectedly at the Mr. Olympia contest to congratulate its winner.

Himself a seven-time Mr. Olympia, Schwarzenegger drew cheers and chants of "Arnold" and "Governator" from the crowd of 6,000 at the Mandalay Bay Hotel-Casino.

... "Finally I feel at home again," Schwarzenegger told the estimated 6,000 spectators. "This is a terrific sport and if it wouldn't have been for bodybuilding I wouldn't have any of this. It's a great foundation."

1. aaaahhh

<sarcasm> what comfort! </sarcasm>

[Wapsie B]

2. Enjoy it while it lasts Arnie.

With all those steriods and god knows what else you took during your bodybuilding days, your excess will take its toll.

[theHandpuppet]

16. I've always suspected...

AHnold's heart problems were the result of heavy steroid use.

3. agh

Heres to you Arnie :argh:

[Blitz]

10. John:

What, exactly, would you have him do? He's not the current governor. There is not a thing that he can do to help right now and if he went anywhere near the scene of the disaster it would not only amount to useless grandstanding, an undercutting of the authority of the current governor (for which he would most certainly be pilloried on DU and elsewhere) and, most importantly, would only cause trouble for the police, fire and other emergency services that have better things to do right now than to deal with the security issues and logistics inherent in an appearance like that.

So, what are you "aghing" for?

[Piperay]

20. That's true

at least he is showing a little bit of respect to Davis by not butting in and letting Davis tend to HIS job. Davis is still Governor and it would be very tacky of the groper to jump the gun and interfer where he has no authority yet, I'm surprised he has that much class.

[Sideways]

22. Arnold Has NO Class Nor Any Respect For Davis

He's not there because he's a fucking narcissist and can't stand to share the spotlight with anyone or ANYTHING. Even a horrible thing like this fire is likely viewed by Arnie as stealing his face time.

He'd rather be getting a woody in Las Vegas looking at HUNK BOYS. His last gasp attempt to rearrange his narcissistic mirror and gaze longingly at what he once was.

NO CLASS WHATSOEVER! Arnie is a PIG. Since when is rolling around in mud and eating slop viewed as classy?

FUCK ARNIE!

[Piperay]

24. Yeah, on second thought

I'm giving him to much credit. The groper is to much of a neanderthal to have respect or class, he thinks with his "little arnie" and lets that be his guide but I'm still glad that his ass grabbing hands are out of state, wish he would never come back. :mad:

21. How about studying the budget

and figuring how we're going to pay for this emergency. How about going to DC and start lobbying for federal help. That would be tremendously helpful while Davis deals with the problem here. How about going to Sacto and trying to learn how the emergency response system works. How about calling other Governor's and ask for help.

There is lots a Governor elect should be doing to help in this situation.

[knight_of_the_star]

4. He calls himself governor

This will come back to haunt him when he starts to screw up, trust me. That is something that he can get nailed with to a wall.

[Oracle]

5. Burn Baby Burn!

Where's the marshmallows and hot dogs, dude?

[Blitz]

9. You're happy that California is burning

and people are losing their homes and everything that they own (and, in some cases, their lives)? Answer this simple question for me:

What the hell is wrong with you?

[Sideways]

15. Uggh Blitz I Think Oracle Was Referring To Arnold

Not CA. BTW to answer your earlier query about what should Arnold be doing during this crisis, he should be in the state of CA for one thing, he should at least try to give the fucking impression that he cares, he shouldn't be in Las Vegas pimping at a pimp competition.

Why all the love for Arnie Blitz?

What the hell is wrong with you?

17. Are-Nnll is off groping for final solutions and stuff!

Recruting for Rumbo's new Army of homeland security that Rumbo talks about needing in his now famous leaked memo! The new 'Homeland Waffen SS' needs some new master race super troopers to enforce the 'New World Order'!

[Sideways]

18. Flottz You Explained It!

Thanks.:evilgrin:

[tritsofme]

6. What was that about fiddling while Rome burned?

[elperromagico]

7. Never fear

The last real governor of California, Gray Davis, is doing all he can to deal with the fires.

[althecat]

8. These fires....

[dbt]

23. Note the chemtrails in the middle left of the picture

Nice to see that the Feds are able to keep this shit up even in the middle of a disaster!

:argh:

[jumptheshadow]

11. Do you think it's sunk in that he's Governor yet?

Reports are that Arnie looked pretty sober after his meeting on the budget. The poor guy probably just needed to rest his poor, overworked brain after that session...

It will be interesting to see if any of the California newspapers skewer him for this.

[Blitz]

12. For what, exactly?

What is he not doing that you think he should be doing right now?

[Hubert Flottz]

13. Admit that he is an ENRON plant for one thing!

Put there to try and quash the case against ENRON and to try and steal some votes for your other guy!

[izzie]

14. I was going to ask if he peed on it but that would be gross.

:spank: Even an old lady can be gross at times.

[Piperay]

19. I'm happy...

ANYTHING that keeps him OUT of California is OK by me.;)

[cally]

25. Arnie could also be giving comfort to all the

celebrity obsessed idiots who voted for him. No, that would show to much class. Where's Maria now? She says she supports women then why not go to some of the shelters and give aid and comfort to all the women in them. They are both evil and despicable.
