Though I do not condone the groping of women, I think his behavior in the
context of Hollyweird is probably par for the course. What is interesting
to me is that these women (some who remain to wish anonymous -- huh?) are
stepping up now just days before this election to reveal bad behavior
allegedly conducted almost 30 years ago! Puh-leeze.

Lets for a moment assume these women are being 100% honest.
The difference between coming forward back then vs. now is maybe the
difference of having a bad momentary encounter vs. the bad guy becoming your
elected representative. Think about it as if you were the one who had been
accosted -- its a bad thing that happened and it left you with a bad
feeling, but up until now you could sort of move forward in your life just
ignoring that moments unpleasantness. Now the guy may be become your state
governor -- it rankles!

Sorry, I dont buy it.

But whatever, who can know the truth of these wild allegations one hears
about from time to time. It doesnt much matter to me.
|
Agreed.
|
Your agreeing with that amazes me. Dont you bring it up all the time? Dont
you equate Shrubs lying about Iraq as being more or less the same as
Clintons lying about Lewinsky?
|
Precisely point out Bushs lie about Iraq. Be prepared to show that he
knowingly and deliberately, and also specifically (I want quotations)
misinformed.

LA Times = partisan platform for the Left (which is okay, actually, but what
I object to is the dishonesty of them claiming to be objective.
Disgusting and pathetic).

Hey, up here where I live -- nearish to Sacramento -- the TV media is
practically worshipful of Arnold. It is the print media that is at least
somewhat even-handed, sometimes even critical. But lets not pretend that
those media are on equal footing -- everyone watches TV, nobody reads! Its
not the same thing and it doesnt create fair coverage.
|
I dont know what to make of the media in California-- it is inexplicable.

Are you kidding me? He is a Republican nightmare! A fiscal conservative
but a social LIBERAL! Eek:-) In reality, the guy is probably the perfect
compromise between Repubicans and Democrats!
|
How do you know any of this?
|
Are you asking me how do I know any of his stances on issues? Read for yourself:

Seriously, youre just guessing it is so. And
Im sorry, but I dont like the powers standing behind Arnold, thats why he
is a puppet the same way Shrub is in D.C.
|
lol How do you know that!

Calling out the right for wanting to legislate morality does not make me a
bigot. To the contrary, I merely oppose the control-freak nature of the
right.
I dont dislike Xtians. I dislike their need to convert everyone to their
lifestyle. I just want to be left alone to make my own moral choices and I
am willing to respect everyone elses right to the same freedom.
|
Really? And what about an American muslim who believes he is justified to stab
his own daughter on religious grounds?
|
When the right, mostly because of a Xtian agenda, opposes gay marriage, they
are standing in the way of freedom and trying to legislate morality.
Recognizing that fact doesnt make anyone a bigot.
|
Just curious. If you are in favor of marriages other than male-female
(remember, this could conceivably be a gay marriage), how do you justify
drawing the line at 2 person marriages? What about 3? Or 4? Or me and my pet
Eric the half-bee?
