"Arguing global warming with Arnold (Schwarzenegger)"

We recently offered tips on "What to say to a warmer" for when Al Gore or a fellow global warming alarmist comes to dinner. This week, we suggest: "What to say to a warmist named Schwarzenegger," in case the Terminator drops by.

California has the most destructive and costly global warming law in the nation, if not the world. In a perverse way, it's the governor's crowning achievement. That says a lot about a fellow who drove the state into virtual bankruptcy, accelerated unemployment to at least 12 percent, while dramatically increasing government spending, taxes and the government payroll. But those destructive acts pale next to what's in store if his preposterously titled Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 is enforced as planned.

California is the pivotal battle in the global warming war. If the tax-and-cap crowd succeeds here, it's only a matter of time before their poisonous solution spreads coast to coast. We are, as warmists say, reaching a tipping point.

To give the debate a shove in the right direction, here are some global warming tipping-point, talking points to raise over dinner:

It's not like there wasn't any warning.

Where are all the freepers and Republican pragmatists who claimed Ahhnold was the only viable Republican candidate despite his relationships with the Kennedys,and where are they who frustrated the California Republican grassroots by promoting another celeb instead of a proven conservative Californian?

California Air Resources Board (CARB) is a manmade disaster!

He has invested state money in the carbon trading scam and can’t afford to get caught in the collapse.

I was one of them and I was wrong.

A lot of them (FairOpinion & 68grunt being the worst) were banned when they started backing McCain in the primaries with the same arguments.

I was one of them and boy do I feel stupid

Arguing Global Warming with Arnold Schwarzengger would be like arguing with a fence post.

Right here!

Would you have done better with Bustamante or Angelides?

I admire Tom McClintock but he has never won a state-wide office (and was barely elected in a safe Republican district).

Oh, but don't you know he has "Total Recall"

Want to see real 'global warming', Ahnold? Back to Mars with your brain dead arse!!!!

It is harder to fight the governor or president when he is of your own party yet rejects the party principles,or at least generally acts against your best interests.

If he is of another party you can count on some help to fight his policies.

The worst case is when YOUR guy goes along with THEIR policies which you sincerely believe are bad for the state or nation.
