Thousands turn out to protest Arnold's $100,000/plate fund raiser ... Arnold runs from the scene like the girlie man he is.

He messed with the wrong people ... fire, police, nurses, teachers, state workers ...

There were more off-duty police there than on-duty police and some of the on-duty police actually helped the protesters ...

Patients came out to support the nurses ... extra kewl

Yes, Arnold is history, one way or another ... he can get back to making bad 'B' movies and let the people govern the state.

Thank You San Francisco ... you showed the way and when he gets to LA, SJ, SD ... you ain't seen nothing yet. ROTF.

Can't say that I blame him.

I even feel a bit sorry for him.....as far as Rightwing politicians go, Arnold is one of the least ignorant and least authoritarian and least repressive that I have seen or heard of.........

His entire platform was based on lies ...

'I don't deal with special interest' ... and now he has collected more special interest money than any governor in CA history.

'Leave no child behind' ... then he wants to cut education funds, inclrease teacher load and class size

'Balance the budget' ... then he borrows another 15 billion for the general fund and 3.5 billion for stem cell

Others...

'Messing with Calpers (state pension fund)' ... BIG mistake Arnold

'Cutting fire -- cutting police'

Basically he's a Nazi liar that had secret meetings with Ken Lay and Enron just prior to the recall and is a puppet for rove to get the diebold machines throughout CA, cancel the $9 billion law suit against Enron, replace Shelly with a republican and rape the Calpers retirement fund. He has accomplished most of these.

The people of CA aren't as stupid as they appear in the rear view mirror although I've been wondering how long it would take for them to catch on ...

True.

But he's still not as despicable or as dishonest as most Rightwing politicians in America.

Oh yes he is, he is just better at PR. He is sneakier.

Point taken echo but I dislike this guy based on his personal habits ... you know ... the small stuff like groping women. Geeesh ... what a POS

And all the idiots that voted for him think hes a robot from the future....

That girlie man comment was the stupidest thing Ive ever heard in politics. And the republicans latched onto it like it was shaksperian or something. But I couldn't help but laugh. When they say say "girlie man" all that pops into my head is:

"is this what they meant?"

LOL - You're a loon, Dop.

Check the history books. Arnold talked about watching Russian tanks go through his village as a child. They never even came near to where he lived. He is either a liar or has one hell of an imagination.

dop, its not true that he is "cutting" education. he is actually raising it, just not as much as people would like. we already pay 50% of our state budget to education, 50%!!!!! and still 50% of high school students in Oakland dont graduate. Guess what the teachers and administrators say will fix the problem?? thats right, more money!!! more leadership!!! ya!!! more administrators and another 10 billion should do the trick. not! Lets face it, until the PARENTS are involved and getting the kids to study and do homeowrk, 100% of the state budget wont get a single kid through the door. its not a money problem, its an involvement problem. Thats why a home schooled kid will far exceed a public school kid most of the time, except for public school kids whose parents are activly involved te kids education.

on a side note, I couldnt help but laugh that you are disgusted by arnold gropping woemn but practically worship the king groper and only president ever accused of rape, Bill Clinton

John Kerry said he was in Cambodia when he wasnt, you didnt seem to concerned about that. he is either a liar or has one hell of an imagination!

I'll give ya education -- at least to some degree but when he decided to try and privatize the retirement funds he was starting to get into people's pockets ... not where you want a guy that's enron dirty.

The article said:

Inside the hotel, about 100 people paid $1,000 each to attend the invitation-only fund-raiser sponsored by Citizens to Save California, with some contributing thousands more for pictures and a pre-dinner reception with the governor.

Ok, but I read it in theSan Jose Mercury News, (on the AP wire) which reported;

""Attendees at the San Francisco event will pay at least $1,000 a plate to dine with Schwarzenegger"

The Collective Bellaciao in Italy (I find foreign news sources to be consistently far less biased in news coverage than the Rightwing biased, Corporate-owned and controlled mainstream Media in the US) reported that;

"Bob Brigham is on-the-ground right now, phoning in updates from a large scale protest against California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. The event: Arnold’s $1,000 to $100,000 a plate fundraiser."
