First the Fascism button. Current rethuglicans (is that a better word?) have more in common with Spain's fascist regime under Franco which lasted well in the 1960s. Actually I think neo-cons are more feudalist then fascist. They're pining for the days of kings and masters with the rest of us serfs and slaves.
Second, don't take our word, check out the following for support of a recall of Arnold. If only to show we Dems are no longer wimps and keep Arnold leaning to far right with show we are willing to do to him what his rethuglican friends did to Gray Davis.
"Schwarzenegger's energy strategy is being driven by some of the same members of former Gov. Pete Wilson's team who led the push for energy deregulation in the mid-1990s. The governor-elect, for example, picked for his transition team Jessie Knight, a former Wilson appointee to the Public Utilities Commission and a leading proponent of deregulation."
http://www.commondreams.org/headlines03/1011-07.htmWASHINGTON -- California governor-elect Arnold Schwarzenegger must explain the substance of his private May 2001 meeting with Enron chief Ken Lay, the Foundation for Taxpayer and Consumer Rights wrote in a letter to Schwarzenegger Tuesday."
Edit ...
"A meeting with the biggest corporate crook in recent memory, while he and his firm were in the midst of ripping off the state, should not be taken lightly," FTCR wrote. "As Governor, you must explain to Californians what you were doing at that meeting, what information Ken Lay shared with you and how the meeting has influenced your thinking on energy issues."

This has nothing to do with whether Gray Davis deserved his ignominious fate, and everything to do with whether Republican aggression is answered with timidity or strength."
