A Message For Liberals and Links of the Day
Sorry, I'm tired and no time to speak like Arnold (I'm veak and puny), but I have a few things to say. For a change of pace, let's take a look at some liberal blogs. At Daily Kos, he has the mentality of that of a four-year-old: "They recalled our governor, let's recall theirs back." Tom Tomorrow is scared that Arnold will become president, not caring about any rational argument that naturalized citizens should be able to be president (hateful uber-partisan, anyone?). John Hawkins has a good roundup of the Democratic Underground, who, as always, play their part of the inmates in the Asylum looking out the window and wondering why everyone is so crazy. Calpundit, since he actually lives in California, is much more reserved, but you can see the crazy liberal trying to break out. It's almost like the Bruce Banner trying to hold back the Hulk. You can hold onto your sanity, Kevin; we're rooting for you! Anyway, I have a message for liberals, and I mean the real wackadoo ones. I know they don't usually read my blog, but someone point them here, as I have a few important points to tell them about the recall election. First off, conservatives don't even like Arnold. Like 13% of the voters in California threw their vote away to McClintock. Many believe things would be better for Bush in 2004 with a weak Democrat in California in 2004. The reason so many of us are enjoying this is that it enrages you wackadoos so much that you're tearing apart your tinfoil hats with your teeth, and that is entertaining. Secondly, this is an isolated events, nitwits. Misha has a good example of your wacky thinking trying to make some association between this and Bush. Okay, everyone listen to this carefully: Davis has an approval rating in the low twenties. That is a very unusual thing, you nuts; don't you understand that? His own party hated him. Sure this was political opportunism by the Republicans... opportunism of a valid opportunity. If you idiots can find a Republican governor as hated as Davis in a state with a recall law, more power to you. And if Arnold gets that low an approval rating after a while in office (which is hard to imagine, even if he goes grope crazy), go ahead and recall him, but don’t do it as some temper tantrum. Lastly, there's some talk from the super wackadoos about the need for revolution or to fight, and this is a point I think all you liberals need to hear again from time to time: There are more conservative than liberals in America. There always have been, and there always will be. And we have guns and you don't. If you want a street fight, it will be very short. This is important for you liberals to know, because we conservatives could easily slaughter you all if we wanted, but, instead, out of the kindness of our hearts, we let you live and tolerate your shrill dissent. You guys need to be more thankful of that. Okay, enough talking to liberals. Here are some links: The Carnival of the Vanities is up. Owen hasn't been paying attention to the news and needs to catch up. The Indepundit reports on how Arafat had a heart attack. A sniper bullet to the head should clear that up. We've still had some trouble spreading the word about Front Line Voices, and Jay Solo has a good idea to get the word outside of the blogosphere. BTW, after martial arts today, we all went to a Chinese buffet to welcome back a student who had returned from Iraq. On the placemats they had those things about what animal goes with what year, and I'm a frick'n sheep. Guess what is the year after mine? The year of the monkey. 2003 is a year of the sheep, which makes sense since I'm 24 (gone through the cycle twice), but that also means that next year, 2004, the election year, is a year of the monkey. That doesn't bode well for the Republicans. Oh, and Tom Bridge wanted a birthday shout out. What does he think this is? Some children's show where I do birthday announcements? Geez. Now go visit all those puny little blogs. Dah! UPDATE: Bill Whittle, who lives in California, has some commentary on the issue. He needs to send out an e-mail notice every time he updates. 28 Responses To "A Message For Liberals and Links of the Day"
OMG! 2004 is the year of the monkey! ohh no, not good not good. #1 - Posted by: UZI4U on October 9, 2003 12:22 AMI am a liberal Democrat and I post at Democratic Underground, but I have to agree - there are some crazy people there, and they can be very elitist and act as if everyone else is stupid or crazy. But most of the people there are sensible...we just have a few kooks. I am sure the same can be said of free republic. #2 - Posted by: Laura in DC on October 9, 2003 12:23 AMBTW e-mail in above post is messed up, its fixed now #3 - Posted by: UZI4U on October 9, 2003 12:23 AMI agree that Arnold's success in the recall election has absolutely no bearing on how well Bush will do in 2004. The only way Bush's approval rating could drop as low as Davis' is if he is caught in bed with Rush Limbaugh. Not only was Davis a horrible politician, he was completely unlikeable. He makes Al Gore look like the life of the party. He's a very creepy little man. Eeeech! However, Arnold could certainly spell big trouble for Bush. The first time Bush doesn't give California the support that Arnold asks for, Arnold will turn on him. After all, Arnold is more famous than Bush. He's more popular than Bush. He's better looking, has more money, a hotter wife, is bigger, stronger, and he's a movie star. On top of that, Arnold is used to getting everything he wants. When Davis went crying to the press about Bush ignoring the California energy crisis, he was ignored. Davis couldn't get media attention if he stood in front of the state capital building naked. It will be a very different story for Arnold. The entire world will be listening to every word he says -- good or bad. Arnold is now the leader of one of the most important economies in the world. Here's the list: 1 USA That makes Arnold more important than the leaders of France, Russia, China, Canada, and Mexico. Bush is going to end up being Arnold's bitch! Okay...at the very least, Arnold will steal a great deal of Bush's thunder. #4 - Posted by: Fritz on October 9, 2003 12:49 AM"Many believe things would be better for Bush in 2004 with a weak Democrat in California in 2004.

Nice roll on that one! Also, Fritz, please explain to me how the new govenor of California has supersended the USA in becoming the "leader of one of the most important economies in the world" (California, according to Fritz, is USA's only economic standard thus putting USA - and California for that matter - at the #1 spot). If I'm not mistaken, Fritz, California is one of FIFTY, let me repeat .... FIFTY ASSHOLE! ... states that encompas the country WHICH is the leader of the free economic world. Of course, California is a strong part of those fifty conglomerates, but never in my 28 years of life have I heard of one state's governer having more power than the president to INFLUENCE WORLD ECONOMY while his/her state is BANKRUPT! Go back to slinging crack on the street; I'm sure your clients will believe that crap. Cursed Hippy! Captain Peanut Well, shit. I guess it serves me right to post something after a night of going out; I misread his post to include California's economy as USA's economy. Even though I still love my verbal thugging that commensed, heh heh. Even though I was mistaken about Fritz's substitution, I still don't see the nation's of the free world going to the gov. of California before the Pres. of the USA, or even the gov. of Washington, Indiana, etc. etc. for that matter. And since I'm re-reading it, Fritz, make up your freakin' mind: "I agree that Arnold's success in the recall election has absolutely no bearing on how well Bush will do in 2004" or "However, Arnold could certainly spell big trouble for Bush" Which side of the fence you sitting on, Hippy? Captain Peanut #6 - Posted by: Captain Peanut on October 9, 2003 04:10 AMLaura in DC, CP, Fritz, Right on Frank! "Civil War part II" seems more and more inevitable as time goes on. Never in my lifetime have I seen such a divide in this country. What I find ironic though, is that these die-hard lefties who advocate peace, tolerance, and a socialist/authoritarian system of government are the same ones who are saying that they want to go to war with the right. Peace, tolerance, and banning guns are all smoke-and-mirror ideas used to achieve their true goal of destroying our capitalist society. #8 - Posted by: Joe on October 9, 2003 07:58 AM"There are more conservative than liberals in America. There always have been, and there always will be. And we have guns and you don't. If you want a street fight, it will be very short. This is important for you liberals to know," - FrankJ They do know this, Frank. At least the semi-sane ones do. Why do you think they want gun confisca--- er... "control" laws? ;] I may have just fisked myself. Are there any semi-sane ones? Never mind... #9 - Posted by: Ironbear on October 9, 2003 08:30 AM"There are more conservative than liberals in America. There always have been, and there always will be.

You guys need to be more thankful of that." I loved this statement, Frank! Hee hee hee. I want to tell this to all the stupid liberal Democrat coward legislators who ran away from the state of Texas in an effort to stop redistricting. There are more conservatives in Texas than liberals now (except for that goofy city of Austin, which I think escaped from California anyway) - get over it already or we'll be forced to use our guns (and you know how Texans love to do that). #10 - Posted by: The Patriette on October 9, 2003 10:01 AMHey, they can take our guns and we'd still whup their butts because a good percentage of them are pale, frail, malnourished vegetarians and vegans who probably couldn't even bleed properly due to meat-deficient enemia. #11 - Posted by: ken n. on October 9, 2003 11:13 AMI agree that Monkeys are bad, but that being said, Reagan was elected President in the year of the Monkey, and we have to remember this year of the Monkey thing is just a plot by the Communist Chinese, first they tried to mess up Reagan, now Bush in '04, but I think our capitialist system will overcome any sinister Chinese Monkey Year Plots. #12 - Posted by: Bill S. on October 9, 2003 11:22 AMFrank, isn't every election year a year of the monkey? #13 - Posted by: aelfheld on October 9, 2003 12:15 PMThere are more conservative than liberals in America. There always have been, and there always will be. And we have guns and you don't. If you want a street fight, it will be very short.

You guys need to be more thankful of that.Perfect humor. #14 - Posted by: addison on October 9, 2003 12:24 PM heh, arnold as president. what was the movie set in the future that had the 'arnold schwarzenegger presidential library'? Demolition man? #15 - Posted by: dr.dna on October 9, 2003 12:50 PMNo, I'm NOT a hippy. I did suspect that I could start a flame war with my comments (some people don't get sarcasm). But, I think Republicans should be aware of the danger in having a mega-celebrity as governor of California -- even if he is sort of a Republican, too. Did anyone see Arnold walk on with Leno last night? Arnold can and WILL do things like that whenever he feels like it. Forget low-rated Meet the Press! MY governor can go on OPRAH and ET! Bush is heading into a risky election. He's going to have rabid Democrats flinging mud at him. A pissed off Terminator certainly isn't going to do him any good. I'm literally DREADING this and everyone who doesn't want to risk Howard Dean in the White House should too! Or Hillary! ARRRRRGH! Anyone who thinks that Arnold isn't going to use his celebrity to California's complete advantage is, well, a PEANUT HEAD! I'm certainly NOT saying this is a GOOD thing! Liberal Californians suspect that the Bush administration deliberately ignored the problems in California as punishment for being a Democratic state. When Arnold says he's going to bring jobs back to California, what do you think he's talking about? Pulling them out of his ass? No. He's going to have to lure them back from places like TEXAS and Arizona -- costing them jobs and hurting their economies. And, California has the vast financial power to do it -- in spite of being "bankrupt". (BTW - if all it takes is a substantial deficeit, by similar standards the USA is also bankrupt!) Arnold and Bush are not going to be buddies. Bush won't go near Arnold -- no photo ops, no dinner parties. Bush would look tiny standing to him and Carl Rove knows better! "Look at that skinny old guy in the flight suit standing next to Arnold Schwarzenegger -- what's his name again?" That ain't gonna happen, folks. Bush and Arnold are going to be like oil and water. But, I can easily see Arnold rubbing elbows with Hillary Clinton at a Hollywood fundraiser and playing golf with Uncle Ted. One day after the election, Arnold is already being pressured into opposing Bush's marriage protection order. When he does, it will be WORLD NEWS: "Republican Governor Schwarzenegger Challenges Bush On Gay Marriage"! So, for those of you who still don't get it: Davis + Bad Ecomomy = Recall Does NOT mean Bush + Bad Economy = Lose in 2004 However, the following IS possible: Arnold + fame + huge ego + governor + Republican + 2004 + shallow media = Bush who? #17 - Posted by: Fritz on October 9, 2003 01:22 PM"I am sure the same can be said of free republic."
There are plenty of good reasons to oppose somebodies positions...you don't have to go right straight to calling them a Nazi/Commie. Besides, facts can be so much more fun, if delivered with just the right turn of phrase.
- - -You've won my (somewhat spontaneous) Line of the Day contest. Well done. Oh, and: - - -For a clever fellow, you sure do manage to tone it down in the comments section. You must not be paid by the word in here.
At Pieter Friedrich's great 'Deux Ego' weblog, he and a few guest bloggers (myself included) have been posting a lot about the recall race. (Pieter is a conservative Christian, and he lives near Sacramento.) See a listing of our past entries here. I posted a little about the race in some of the recent entries at my own blog, but not much... (I am an Illinoisian). I am not happy about what happened in the Golden State, though; in recent years, things have been allowed to go from bad to worse there. The state GOP, I suspect, has made some key errors, and has somewhat allowed for this to happen. (It may be similar to what has happened to the state GOP here in the Land of Lincoln.) What happens in CA could have an impact on what happens elsewhere in the country. Things have not been going well there, and I don't think that they've shown signs of turning around for the better. I don't know if there's still time to do something about it... I hope there is. But significant and correct actions must be taken fast. In this does not happen, the consequences could be really bad, for all of us throughout our nation. Arnold is Interesting. But do you think he deserves to be governor ? #23 - Posted by: Delray Beach on January 23, 2004 04:54 PMMarlboro $13.95/ Camel $13.95 with delivery !
