Don't Call Us "Girlie Men" or We'll Cry Like Little Girls
Posted by Frank J. at 08:14 AM | View blog reactions | Comments (31)

I love how Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger called the Democrat California legislature "girlie men," and then the Democrats fight back by whining and throwing hissy fits like a bunch of girlie men.

I really could never understand how any self-respecting man could vote for a Democrat.

Well, hear me now and understand me later: I think Arnold should keep up the rhetoric. He should have a press conference to apologize saying, "I am so sorry I upset the Democrats by calling them 'girlie men.' To make up, I'll give them all pretty flowers so they squeal with girlish glee."

Hell, this seemed to hit a vein so well with the Democrats, we should use it at the national level. President Bush should put out an ad with an Arnold voice over saying, "What if you elect Kerry president, and there is terrorist attack, but he can't respond right away because he's spending an hour fixing his hair, the frilly little girlie man."

In the Vice Presidential Debate, Dick Cheney could just keep bouncing a basketball off of John Edwards's head while saying, "Are you going to cry? Are you going to cry?"

To which Edwards will answer with a tearful, "Yes."

Politics have just evolved, my friends. Thank you, Arnold.

Politicians are the lowest form of life on the earth. Liberal Democrats are the lowest form of politician.

That's it. I'm going to go finally rent the movie and watch it this weekend. Patton's the bomb.

You made me think of a scence fom one of the Austin Powers movies.

Instead of bitch slapping....Cheney could get one of those red dodge balls and keep hitting mini-John in the face:

Thump!
"Gonna cry baby?"
Thump!
"Gonna cry baby?"
Thump!
"Gonna cry baby?"

Former Hostage,
That's actually originally form The Great Santini - but, yeah, that's pretty much the same thing but funnier.

#4 - Posted by: Frank J. on July 20, 2004 08:50 AM

Something I'd love to happen during the debates: Kerry finishes one of his long-winded non-answers and sort of gives an "in your face" attitude to Bush as he turns it over for rebuttal. Bush regards Kerry with a calm, quiet dignity and says, "adouchebagsayswhat?"

#5 - Posted by: AWG on July 20, 2004 09:05 AM

These lame democrats are obviously so easy to manipulate. If he would have called them out like that "Come up here and tell the people that you represent the special interests first" and left off the "girlie men" line, the left would have crucified him. They would have whipped out example after example of the Republicans catering to special interest first as well. Because they do, all politicians do (and I am a republican).

But by throwing in the "girlie men" line, he made their widdle powittically cowwect brains explode. ALl they can do is stammer and stutter that he wasn't NICE! He was insensitive. It makes gays feel bad. It makes women feel bad (though I don't know why it should).

No substance in their counter-attack, just whining. Beautiful! They can't even talk about real issues if someone is out there being insenstitive. Beause that is all the ammo they have.

To quote the great Frank J...WANKERS!

it hurts when the private part is kicked...this time he used a nail and a hammer though

#7 - Posted by: entrepreneur on July 20, 2004 09:38 AM

Ouch! That comment is gonna keep the dems whining for a long time. Also notice that it is only a special interest group that is protesting this comment...

#8 - Posted by: Fury on July 20, 2004 10:26 AM

Arnold always said that the best thing in life is to beat the Democrats, call them girlie men and listen to them cry like little girls. (Ok, it was "crush your enemies, drive them before you and listen to the lamentations of their women." -same thing)

#9 - Posted by: Paleo on July 20, 2004 10:49 AM

Arnie is exactly what California needed. Not only does he have a workable plan for getting the state on it's feet, he's also popular enough to slash through the PC crap that's so rampant out there. The people have given him a mandate to kick ass and take names and that's exactly what he's doing.

Anyone who's offended by this is either way oversensitive or (more likely) just engaging in some utterly transparent political opportunism. Gays and women have no reason to be offended here; Arnie is well-known to be socially libertarian, and the entire thing is derived from an SNL skit.

All the gripers are going to succeed in doing is revealing themselves as humorless hand-wringers.

Frank,
I posted the "official" Arnold apology on my site yesterday. it was very touching.

#11 - Posted by: rightwingduck on July 20, 2004 11:11 AM

I think the democrats should complain this commnet is grossly insulting to all girlie-men, come on how would you like to be compared to a democrat?

#12 - Posted by: Boo on July 20, 2004 11:12 AM

Speaking of liberal girly men: My parents were walking in Portland after having lunch on Sunday when they encountered two guys with a whole bunch of anti-Bush signs standing on the sidewalk. My mom then says "I love George Bush" as she walks by. One lib yells to her "Go f*** yourself!" (to my MOM!!) My Dad then asks him, "Excuse me, did you just tell my wife to go f*** herself?" The lib replies "yes", at which point my dad slaps him upside the head!! (Yea Daddy!!!) (He said if he had known his hand was going to reach out and slap him he would have planned ahead and really clocked him. Oh well.) Anyway, the lib starts lisp-screaming "Hate crime, hate crime, that's a hate crime!!!" for about 5 minutes straight (or until the cops arrived, whichever came first). Anyway, my Dad didn't go to jail and we all had a good laugh. That guy was definitely a "girly-man".

only your dad and only in portland....hehe...SEND PICS! :-P

#14 - Posted by: Pam on July 20, 2004 12:21 PM

Would this be Maine or Oregon?

#15 - Posted by: Trucido on July 20, 2004 12:22 PM

oooohhhh! I wanna bitch-slap a democrat!

#16 - Posted by: Chris on July 20, 2004 12:23 PM

"I am so sorry I upset the Democrats by calling them 'girlie men.' To make up, I'll give them all pretty flowers so they squeal with girlish glee."

Heh. When I read this I could hear Arnold saying it. I would pay money and make the trip from Denver to hear him say this in person.

And jonag, kudos to your dad!

#17 - Posted by: Cool Tester on July 20, 2004 12:29 PM

Remember, if you aren't careful, you can catch wussy-ness from those guys. Rather than slap them (slap?), it's best to convince them that their sensitiveness is needed elsewhere. I recommend rebel Mongolia or Manilla, or southern Sudan. Send them off and let them "help" the people there.
Real men can video tape it and place bets on how long they last.

#18 - Posted by: LibertyBob on July 20, 2004 12:44 PM

Pam, I didn't even mention what my sister did to the guy!! I would kill for pictures of the whole thing!!

Trucido, Oregon (which used to be a lovely place to live).

#19 - Posted by: jonag on July 20, 2004 01:57 PM

I don't care if Arnold calls the Democrats "girlymen," or "wussies," or anything else. I DO care that Arnold is trying to sell out California to the same energy comglomerates that engineered the brown-outs and power shortages of the last couple of years.

And as for the VP debates---Edwards will eat Cheney alive! Edwards is smart, likable, and hard to derail---Cheney is smart, but a bully and a thug, which will come across very well on teevee. Bring it on!

#20 - Posted by: Don Myers on July 20, 2004 06:53 PM

jonag, that's fabulous. hooray Dad!!

#21 - Posted by: sarahk on July 20, 2004 07:09 PM

That is hilarious! I totally agree. I would pay money to see the Cheney/Edwards thing...

#22 - Posted by: Al on July 20, 2004 09:14 PM

That's just perfect, Arnie calls the Dems wussies, and the Dems respond by doing everthing in their power to prove him exactly right!

Mwah ha ha haa haaa! Get 'em Arnie!

#23 - Posted by: LokiDoki on July 20, 2004 11:15 PM

Frank, it's real simple. REAL MEN DON'T VOTE DEMONCRAT. Only a girly man.

#24 - Posted by: Thanyon on July 20, 2004 11:27 PM

bitch slapping protester weenies...

sigh. almost makes me want to move to Oregon. We don't have any here.

#25 - Posted by: Dave in Texas on July 20, 2004 11:53 PM

Ahh, yes.... proof that politics have certianly evolved.

#26 - Posted by: Jeff on July 21, 2004 12:11 AM

The thing that seems to keep getting missed on this is that this started as a Saturday Night Live joke on [b]Arnold[/b] - he just used the same joke. Naturally, the dems took deliberate offense at this - they had been looking for something to complain about, never mind that it was an obvious joke reference.

#27 - Posted by: Who Me? on July 21, 2004 12:56 AM

Personally I think Cheney should grab Edwards' hand and slap his face with it over and over while saying "Quit hitting yourself, why are you hitting yourself?"

#28 - Posted by: twalsh on July 21, 2004 09:05 PM

I think he's being unfair to girlie men. Just because someone is a girlie man does not mean he favors special interests.

#29 - Posted by: Doug on July 24, 2004 11:30 PM

Yesss... you're going to let a sexist saying by a movie star sway your vote. "Oh no a move star called me a girlie man, I must vote republican!"

As the entire nation of Canada sits back and shakes their head in disgust. No wonder the majority of the world thinks you're a bunch of school yard bullies and children. Geez.

Grow up already.

#30 - Posted by: marie on September 12, 2004 03:46 AM

Its confirmed : The US has gone crazy...you are sending men and women to their deaths fighting a war that was contrived by Karl Rove , that had more to do with oil than terrorism . You are taxing the lower income earners to give tax relief to the wealthy , you are charging the poor the highest drug prices in the world because you refuse to legislate those prices ( the way the rest of the world does ) ... The jobs you have " exported" will all come back ...after the US dollar has hit an all time low against the ¥ , the £, and the Euro ...
You are right , Democrats are girlie men... they can't promote a candidate to tell the truth...because Americans would sooner put their heads in the sand...Noone remembers Vietnam which sent thousands to their deaths with no outcome ...under sucessive mostly war mongering Republican administrations a war failed to defeat the red menace....
