Arnold's confession.

Luck

Ok,

I'm not sure if you're all aware, but apparently, Arnold was accused of idolizing Hitler and sexually harassing women.

What's your opinion on this as far as it being relevant?

I'm tired of people running of mayor or some political postion, and having people bring up this propaganda.

If the guy believed in Nazism or idiolized Hitler, so what? When in ANY of his speeches has he spoke of Nazism? Hell, there is a woman running for govenor who's anti-illegal immigrant, yet they say nothing about that.

Why should his role as running for govenor be jeoprodized by past actions that have no link to what he stands for? I'm soooo tired of this, I really am. If he wants to believe in Nazism, let him, if he wants to Idolize Hitler, let him. As long as it doesn't affect his ablity to govern California.

Hell, me and my history teacher had a long talk last year about Hitler..a lot of his thing we agreed with. Doesn't make us nazis..hell, but if someone found out, he'd lose his job. What ever happened to freedom of speech?

Then Rush Limbaugh getting scorned for his obvious opinion on McNabb..who IS overated.

I mean, the guy McNabb is VERY overated. Sometimes..it does happen because they're black. The same reason affirmative action plays a role. But anyways, he had his opinion, he's known for having a very strong opinion. Did he mention anything racist? No..why is it that viewers went up after Rush joined ESPN? Yeah..now he quit to duck the heat the all these people gave him..labeling him a racist, etc.


What ever happened to freedom of speech? I'm not sure if this belongs in the political forum, but tell me your opinion on all of this. I was watching it all day yesterday and this morning on the news.

Smoothdrive

i'ld be more worried if he idolised Bush and harassed men

Luck

I'm not a democrat..but Rush Limbaugh is my hero. And thanks to me for posting this thread, I now missed the bus to school because of it.

Liberals in America have done their very best to blackball and silence conservative views and opinions. It's their way at getting back at us for McCarthy.

FuNsTeR

McCarthy was a loony ... he wanted to NUKE North Korea /China ... and you idolise the fool

bluelight

I have just read a list of offensive acts this dude has performed and...he hasnt denied them....instead he has ...excused himself and to that added that if..he gets choosen he will be "The womens man" in poilitics.

One of the offended women had been asked " If she had ever had a mans tongue in her ass"...


Go ahead....Give him your vote.

Bluelight

Luck

I'm sure almost 75% of the politicians in the world have pulled crap in the past.

Hell, if Arnold's past is a problem, then I guess Martin Luther King should have never been around because he cheated on his wife and had all of his speeches written out for him.

We're in the present, I mean..if I were to become a politician, would it matter if I said some sexual insult to a woman in 7th grade? No..(not that I have) it wouldn't.

bluelight

Sure but......The same thing does ...not.....apply for ordinary politicians as for ordinary peole.

That why we vote for them...and why they get paid.

Generally they arent paid to insult women they dont know..

You got rid of Clinton for a reason didnt you.Personally i think his thing was no more insulting that what Termainator has been saying and showed .

50 percent of the people in Usa are women.What interest should they have in voting for a sex crazed freak?

If terminator gets to be governor over California...well...Then the Californians deserve it.

Before you lay your vote....ask yourself one question:

Who is pulling the strings ?

Bluelight

Luck

You're missing the point, this was well over 20 years ago..he even smoked pot back then. It has nothing to do with his current persona. Arnold was also a totally different person back then. Bush has done..MANY things..including partying, getting drunk, etc. Jessy Ventura has as well.. Hell, even people dug things up on Tomas Jefferson before he was elected. He used propaganda to get the votes.

JavaFox

Firstly, I never said I respected McCarthy. He was a coward, an opprotunist, and a fool.

Secondly, you are thinking of Douglas MACARTHUR, not Joseph McCarthy.

@/2ct!<

And why, exactly, has the media brought this up NOW after hes been running for so long? I mean, they just seem to send everyting possible, even if it didnt really happen, and hope he cant respond before the election.

p0rChM0nK3y

i dont really care if arnold grabbed an ass or a tit 30 years ago, i care about my car tax and illegal aliens with drivers licenses.

Luck

Yes, I'm tired of illegal aliens, it's getting out of hand.

Smoothdrive

Actually this speaks on favour of Arnold, Clinton was a good president and he grabbed Lewinsky..Arnold for President !!

The_Neon_Cowboy

yea i rember him shooting down good legistlation. takeing credit for stuff that happrnd on it's own & or he had no part in. how much credit can you give a president for but sighing a bill into law? I forget the bills but rember the VETO's. I can even rember complaing to my mom the instant the results were in wont repat what i said. i'm just glad he's out of office

Agreed... we need some REAL boarder secrity. to many are comeing over and are useing technacaltys to be able to VOTE! drive! have bank accounts! apply for welfare! socail serrity cards etc...

they need to toghten the borders there are way to many running the boarder

i used to have pen pals in CA... dudes like 30+ /-50+ year old hispanic men hitting on 13 year olds etc....

they need to do a clean sweep @ the buissness level to 100% verify citizen ship.
and ship those illegals back were they belong... they wanna come over they should do it the LEGAL way....

arnold cant do much worse then any of your other options. like the porn star etc running lol

Luck

I was sick to see this rally taking place the other day that supported ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS! And a bunch of politicians supported them..saying that if illegal aliens stayed in the country for a certain ammount of years and commited no crimes, they should automatically be legal. That's a load of crap, and I'm tired of it.

evergreen

I was amazed to see support for giving illegal aliens rights that only citizens should have and support to let them bypass the procedures to become citizens. I think even the majority of Californians agree, although I am again amazed at the number that support the contrary.

Conservatives have let the liberal voices go way too far in this country! It's time to be active!

Go Arnold!

Go Bush!

Luck

'm going to give a couple of reasons why the whole incident was rediculous

1. You can look at the first post to confirm this. Donovan McNabb is extremely overrated...so in that aspect Rush was correct (even if you say he isn't then it's really an opinion...but the stats back it up)


2. This wasn't even an issue when it was first said...Michael Irvin (although he may have been baked at any given moment) initially agreed with Rush and nobody even concentrated on the race card that was played


3. the initial story saying that it was insensitive didn't even run until 2 days later...and wasn't picked up nationally til the next day...if it was really that big of a deal it would have blown up that very night. It was a nationally covered game and I'm sure millions of people saw him say that...but it tooka reporter in another state 2 days to point it out.


4. 3 democratice presidential candidates piped in. One who has admitted to be "running against the Rush Limbaugh's of teh world" Clearly he has a personal agenda. Another is someone who I'd label as racist against whites and holds no credibility and the other was probobly just jumping on the bandwagon...furthermore I'd like to add that the world would be a better place if Al Sharpton and the Rev. Jessie Jackson would just die...really they've lost their cred and just piss of 78 percent of the united states.


4. The comments weren't even racist. Read them really carefully he never says Donovon McNabb is bad...just overrated...he merely comments that the liberal media has wanted a black quarterback to succeed and Donovan McNabb has been overhyped because of that...again that's his opinion...because he differs in opinion about something race related doesn't mean he's racist


5. He's Rush Limbaugh...what did ESPN expect when they hired him. Does it really shock anyone that he said this. Anyone who knows Rush Limbaugh should never be surprised that he would say something that's controversial...Also he was hired to give his opinion...and unless his contract said he couldnt' talk about race...I see that it was his perogotive to say what he wishes.


This was taken from a Madden 2004 forum on EA SPorts..of course there are mispelled words, but like I said, it's taken from someone else. The bottom line is, he's 100% correct.

Luck

I'm not sure I'd consider Bush conservative. Putting our men's lives on the line to aid a 3rd world country that's violated UN Policies for over 30 years isn't conservative.

GOG

If you're talking about Iraq then it isn't a third world country, Iraq has oil, lots of it too, much more than you have. That's the main reason why your people are dying there, it has nothing to do with humanity or aid.


Where are the WMD's?

Luck

Nope, I'm talking about Israel.

GOG

Oh, ok, sorry for misundertanding. Carry on Sir

JavaFox

I sure hope you are joking. Israel is nowhere near a third world country (to even suggest such is utterly stupefying). She has never had a Chapter 6 resolution passed on her (Iraq has), and she is our most important ally in the world.

GOG

What's the reason of passing a chapter 6 resolution on Israel, you will only veto it down anyway. You know Java, the rest of us - like 97% of all the people on this planet, we don't care if Israel is your most valuable ally.

And no, Israel is far from our most important ally in this world.


They've costed our men many lives. To say something like that is completly inane.
