JFK's dad might as well have been too. What your point?

Arnold's dad wasnt a member of the ss, was he? no... he just transfered some money or something into a german account before ww2 and that german account funded hitler.

Hold up now, soldier. That stuff got spread on national television. And if it's on TV, it must be as good as gospel.

Then again, Katie Couric is possessed by the rabid ghost of Joe McCarthy. Disregard.

Soldier, I think you are confusing Arnold for George Bush, his father did financial stuff for the Nazis.

Fun fact: It was Bush's grandfather (and not even then because the link is so damn vague it shouldn't even exist). It would be weird for Dubya's father (aka former President George Bush Sr.) to be be funding the Nazis and fighting them at the same time.

Shit, I'm descendant from the german bloodline. I'm indirectly connected to the Nazi party through DNA!

Also, Arnold's father was in fact a member of the SA, not the SS. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT, JEEZ.

But also, that means absolutely jackshit when you take into consideration that there's such thing as highly conservative Christian families that raise punk rock goth kids that reject everything their parents taught them. Just because his dad did some work for the Nazis doesn't mean he automatically is a Nazi. I mean shit, do you seriously think he'd secretely be pro-Nazi and run for governor in a society where even displaying the swastika will get you a thorough ass-beating?

Schwarzenegger wrote:``In many ways I admired people -- it depends for what. I admired Hitler for instance because he came from being a little man with almost no formal education, up to power. And I admire him for being such a good public speaker and for his way of getting to the people and so on. But I didn't admire him for what he did with it. It's very hard to say who I admired and who are my heroes. And I admire basically people who are powerful people, like (President) Kennedy. Who people listened to and just wait until he comes out with telling them what to do. People like that I admire a lot.''

Earlier in the interview, he says:

``Yes, in Germany they used power and authority but it was used in the wrong way.''

There has been much speculation on the part of the media concerning facts about Arnold Schwarzenegger. A lot of it has been false.

Quit believing the bullshit lies the media feeds you. It's all trash. While I think Republicans are idiots, the media is a much more significant enemy and we should hunt those scoundrels down with automatic weapons.

The Brownshirts, the stormtroopers.

I forgot what it is they did. It definately rings a bell though.

I don't see why people keep saying "Arnold can't win, it's wrong". Newsflash: it's America. ANYONE can run, ANYONE can win. That's the beauty of the system: vote for whoever you want. You're not obligated to vote for lying, cheating, sleazy career politicians...hell, you can (and have, actually) elect an actor into the presidency. I say if he can do the job, more power to him, if he can't then boot his Austrian ass out.

And honestly, California was already a joke when it came to elected officials; anyone remember Sonny Bono?

He's governor, not president, he can't become president, he wasn't born here.
