a tragedy for the democratic process

The writer doesn't mean that. Really means to say "a tragedy for the Democratic process.

[Restorer]

It is not altogether fanciful to equate this rejection of the mainstream with the embrace of fascist politicians by voters in pre-war Europe.

Actually, it is altogether fanciful to make such a comparison.

[brianl703]

"The people, it seems, are not always to be trusted."

[Callahan]

So a pro-gay, pro-affirmative action, sexually permissive politician married to a Kennedy is "like Hitler" to these people. What do they call the actual conservatives?

[Always Right]

But it is in fact a tragedy for the democratic process, and proof that many Californians have so lost their grip on reality that they can vote for a man whose main claim to fame is to play the part of a robot in a film, a man who is not only wholly inexperienced in public affairs and ignorant of politics but also a suspected sexual predator and a former partial admirer of Hitler.

At least most Californians were smart enough not to believe the media lies like this one.

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

This was not necessarily written by a democrat.

[newgeezer]

So a pro-gay, pro-affirmative action, sexually permissive politician married to a Kennedy is "like Hitler" to these people.

Excellent point!

What do they call the actual conservatives?

The last one I can remember, they called "Bob Dornan."

[Sofa King]

"It is not altogether fanciful to equate this rejection of the mainstream with the embrace of fascist politicians by voters in pre-war Europe."

*YAWN*

You can tell right here there's going to be nothing of substance in the rest of the article.

[per loin]

of course, Schwarzenegger cannot be reasonably mentioned in the same breath as Hitler.

Does this bozo even read what he is writing?

[skeeter]

How could Californians elect such a ghastly human being?

Funny, this is what I was saying last November, word for word.

[muawiyah]

Despite his "main claim to fame", Arnold has also written best selling books (of scientific merit too!) in both German and English.

His first movie, "Pumping Iron", was a clear exhibition of a first class mind.

California is lucky to have an intellectual of this caliber available to devote the rest of his working career to straighting out the mess made by the professional political class.

[Sofa King]

Oh, and another thing:

"Then there were his remarks many years ago about Hitler, which can hardly be written off as merely ill-judged. What normal or decent person would have praised the German monster in public as "a good public speaker"?"

Anyone who knew what they were talking about, actually. It's a well-known fact that Hitler had a very forceful personality, and that he was an excellent public speaker. That's how he rose to power.

[G.Mason]

Oh no!

The Africans are upset?

How will we ever hold our heads up?

Excuse me whilst I toss this in the $h!t can.

[camas]

who do you think wrote the article??

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Repeat the big lie often enough (now, who is really an admirer of Hitler?)

[G.Mason]

"The Germans that elected Hitler...."
This is a wonder sign! It proves that the ratmedia still does not understand the world and still can not accept the fact that they can no longer shape the world to their own sick image.

[Reagan Man]

>>>California is lucky to have an intellectual of this caliber ...

It's always good to have a sense of humor too. Hahahahaha
