Graduation crowd boos Schwarzenegger (HAHAHA!!!!!)
SANTA MONICA, California (AP) -- Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's return to his alma mater turned into an exercise in perseverance when virtually his every word was accompanied by catcalls, howls and piercing whistles from the crowd.

Schwarzenegger's face appeared to redden during his 15-minute commencement address Tuesday to 600 graduates at Santa Monica College, but he ignored the shouting as he recalled his days as a student and, later, his work as a bodybuilder and actor.

"Always go all out and overcome your fears," he told the graduates. "Work, work, work. Study, study, study."

Inside the stadium, the drone from hundreds of rowdy protesters threatened to drown out the governor's voice at times.

4. Lie, lie, lie. Cheat, cheat, cheat.
Arnold lied about groping women and sexually harassing them. He cheated people in a former business when he was starting out in America, claiming people needed work done on their homes when they didn't. He preyed on the gullible.

And of course he married Marie to further his political ambition. Not that she isn't a prize to begin with, but for him she's a stepping stone.

I'm glad he was booed. I'm just surprised no one threw a pie in his face.

5. Stupid Arnie!
Doesn't he know that you're supposed to bully college administration into holding degrees for disruptors?

Doesn't he know that he was supposed to fill the audience with freepers?

:P
