Fellow California’s (((check in )))
Edited on Sun Sep-28-03 11:06 PM by BEFOREATHOUGHT
Worst-case scenario if the political Frankenstein wins don’t think California is going to *. I’m very young so correct me if I’m wrong, but we had a Republican Governor named Pete Wilson twice and Clinton carried the state big time twice.

I have been passing out the following MSnbc article to every one, and putting the first cover page on cars. I’m also making several trips to Jewish organizations and synagogues; the truth about Arnold being friends with a freaking Nazi war criminal needs to make the rounds. You will do this to, there is too much at stake with this political Frankenstein. Just imagine if a Jewish organization got hold of it and went public. We are doing them a service, this Trojan horse is friends with Kurt Waldheim. :mad:

Also what do we know about a possible recall petition if Arnold does
win?

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Schwarzenegger’s Nazi problem
<snips>
Here’s a question Jay Leno forgot to ask Arnold Schwarzenegger when he announced his candidacy for governor of California on last night’s “Tonight Show”: “Will you renounce your support for Kurt Waldheim?”

A LITTLE REFRESHER course may be in order. Kurt Waldheim, a widely esteemed former secretary general of the United Nations, was running for president of Austria in March 1986 when it came to light that he had participated in Nazi atrocities during World War II.

<snip>
In 1944, Waldheim had reviewed and approved a packet of anti-Semitic propaganda leaflets to be dropped behind Russian lines, one of which ended, “enough of the Jewish war, kill the Jews, come over.”

<snip>
the U.S. Justice Department put Waldheim on its watch list denying entry to “any foreign national who assisted or otherwise participated in activities amounting to persecution during World War II.”

<snip>
In 1988, Schwarzenegger was asked in a Playboy interview what he thought of Waldheim. He replied: "I hate to talk about it, because it’s a no-win situation. Without going into details, I can say that being half-Austrian and half-American, I don’t like the idea that these two countries that mean so much to me are in such a disagreement. Austria is a very important place for Americans, because it is a neutral country. With a little bit of good will, the problem will be straightened out. I think it’s well on the way."

Why on Earth didn’t Schwarzenegger take this opportunity to speak out against Waldheim?

the campaign
against Arnold hasn't really begun.

I would never underestimate Gray Davis' political fighting skills. He's just about to begin the real fight, and it's gonna get ugly.

As for a recall for Arnold if he wins, I plan to start gathering signatures immediately.

4. If You Want to Stick it to Arnie, Go with The Meeting
Surely his hobnobbing with "Kenny Boy" Lay and Michael "Junk Bonds" Milken during the electricity crisis ought to receive more publicity.
