"How Arnold won the West" - anyone seen it?
http://www.cbc.ca/passionateeye/feature_041203.html

I saw it yesterday on my local TV station (which is running a series of Hot Docs) - and I was appaled.

To me, the best scene of that documentary, took place at a pro-Arnold rally, where a college guy yells out anti-Arnold questions ("Why did you meet with Ken Lay from Enron?") - the guy next to him is about 2 seconds from beating him up. At then end, you can really see the frustration in the eyes of the college guy - because, as another person says about the rallies: "They're not here to hear him speak, they just want his autograph", everyone seems to be more focused on Arnold's person instead of his plans to get California back.

Which reminds me - what have the Gropernator been up to in Sacramento? All I've heard was that he slashed a new tax on cars, which created a new hole on a couple of million dollars.
