Girlie-man
I'm still having trouble accepting the fact that Arnold Schwarzenegger is a governor (Yes, it's been almost two years, but this is a guy who was pregnant in Junior). I'm a little bothered by any actor in politics, especially action-heroes who've based a career on cheap catch-phrases.
I mean, it's obvious why actors make good politicians: They are trained to lie. By their very nature, they can read a few lines and transform themselves into virtually any character (assuming they are talented). That's why I'm so suspicious of them. Everyone loved Reagan for his grandfatherly character, but who's to know if that persona was real? What if he was acting for 8 years? This is the same reason I would never date an actress. Most women can fake it a little, but with an actress, you'd never know.
The reason I bring this up is because a reader (Yes, I'm going to refer to everyone as "a reader", even if you're my best friend. It makes me sound important.) commented on the irony in *gulp* Governor Schwarzenegger's harsh criticism of the nation's immigration policy. While there are a few intellectual reasons that an immigrant could want a very strict immigration policy, odds are Schwarzenegger is just reading the script for his next movie Arnold: The Road to the Whitehouse. Apparently his popularity has dropped in California recently, and before he can lobby for an ammendment allowing foreigners in the Oval Office, he must win reelection by pandering to California's Republicans.
Come on, this is the guy who has called his opponents 'girlie men' on more than one occassion.
