Arnold in the corner lobby pocket

I did not vote for Arnold but I have developed a certain affection for his political abilities because he seems to have traveled down a centralist path on many issues and it's not easy to find Republicans who exhibit flexibility towards both sides of an issue. I'm not about to admit that he has drifted to the left on important matters but he's sleeping with a Shriver so something has to rub off....from time to time.

The Legislative deadline for passing bills was Sunday and Arnold's job was to sign the bills presented to him....or veto the bills. And this year there were 965 bills presented to him. Last year there were 1,172 bills.

Keep in mind that you can't say that your state politicians aren't doing anything. That's 2137 bills presented over the last two years.

HOW MANY OF THOSE BILLS DID YOU PERSONALLY GET INVOLVED IN?

DOESN'T THE LEGISLATURE PRESENT BILLS THAT ARE ISSUES CREATED BY THE PEOPLE?

HOW MANY OF THOSE BILLS DO YOU EVEN KNOW ABOUT?

THE GOVERNOR VETOED ONE OF THOSE BILLS THAT WOULD HAVE MADE HOSPITALS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR F..KUPS.

THE BILL WOULD HAVE REQUIRED HOSPITALS TO DISCLOSE INFECTION AND DEATH RATES.

THAT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE TO MUCH TO ASK FOR....BUT APPARENTLY.....

THE CALIFORNIA HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION, one of Sacramento's largest lobbyists and donors, HAS A BIGGER SAY IN THE ACTION THAN THE WELFARE OF THE PUBLIC.

WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO KNOW THE NUMBERS REGARDING INFECTION AND DEATH RATES IF YOU WERE ADMITTED TO A HOSPITAL?

How about the actual failure and success rate of any one given procedure that might be something you are suppose to have done?

I think they got to Arnold and it probably happened at the same party where the oil companies and the owner of the Staples Center were toasting our esteemed Governor.

Instead of making the HIGHEST PROFITS IN THEIR HISTORY OIL COMPANIES pay for anything...the Gov signed bill AB 118, which raises our car registration by $3.00....SO THAT THE STATE CAN RAISE $210 MILLION DOLLARS TO DEVELOP CLEAN-AIR PROGRAMS AND ADDRESS ENERGY SUBSIDIES.

SINCE THE DEFEAT OF PROP 87 IN THE LAST ELECTION...THE PEOPLE BASICALLY TOLD THE GOVERNOR THAT OIL COMPANIES WERE OFF LIMITS WHEN IT CAME TO MAKING THEM PAY FOR ANYTHING.

THE DEFEAT OF 87 IS STILL ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING DEFEATS IN THE HISTORY OF CALIFORNIA POLITICS....AND THOSE WHO WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEFEAT HAVE TO TRULY BELIEVE THAT THE GENERAL POPULATION IS A BUNCH OF TOTAL IDIOTS....and they might be right.

WE, AS A PEOPLE, HAD A CHANCE TO MAKE THE OIL COMPANIES PAY FOR SOME OF THE OUTRAGEOUS PRICE GOUGING THAT HAS TAKEN PLACE IN THE LAST THIRTY YEARS BUT WE BLINKED AND THEY ARE LAUGHING ALL THE WAY TO THE CASINOS......
.....FORGET THE BANK....THEY'VE GONE WAY BEYOND LAUGHING TO THE BANK.....THEY ARE NOW MAKING PROFITS SO LARGE THAT IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO SAVE, SO NOW THEY JUST SPEND, SPEND, SPEND....AND PARTY, PARTY, PARTY AND OF COURSE THEY GET TO CELEBRATE WITH THE GOV.

Another bill signed allows for........

The owner of the Staples Center to have access to LOW-INCOME HOUSING FUNDS so that he can make the streets around the Staples Center more user friendly....which when discussed had to be at a very private party.

MARIA PROBABLY STAYED HOME WITH THE KIDS WHEN ARNOLD WENT TO ONE OF THOSE PARTIES.

OR NOT....

It could be part of the entire scam......Maria's not really a Shriver but was put in place to create a total package. Politicians are really sneaky motherf..kers and organizing years in advance is not something unusual for them. Arnold never was an athlete....he was a politician from the get-go.

But besides that silliness....SERIOUSLY.....

NOT MAKING HOSPITALS DISCLOSE THEIR WON LOST RECORD IS UNACCEPTABLE.

BOO ON YOU ARNOLD.....

SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE!
