"Who would have thought that a bad Austrian artist who's obsessed with the human physical ideal could assemble such a rabid political following?"

3. Funny, but there's a nasty irony in the quote above that one...
"It certainly is an interesting career path, to go from bodybuilder to movie star to politician to man in way over his head."

Actually, anyone and everyone with half a brain can recognize that Arnold's just a cartoonish front for somebody else... In this case, the energy lobby -<post Enron-enabling deregulation>- that defrauded California to the tune of 9 FRIGGIN BILLION DOLLARS... That's money that Davis knew that the state deserved to have back After all, it more or less started the whole state budget implosion boondoggle. Davis was actively trying to get it all back in court, and he had a good chance.

Arnold's stated position is 'why waste time in court ' when we can settle for 2 cents on the dollar!

I don't have the link but the info and details are probably a click or two away from a search that includes the terms "Greg Pallast", "California", "Recall" and "Energy"... Or find it on GregPallast.com...

7. Jello Biafra needs to re-write California Uber Alles NOW
But he won't, because he's still trying to distance himself from the DK stuff and focus on his spoken word.
