Arnold loves Prop 99, his vision for California is to have your house paved over with a strip mall. Heck – Ose could build his Cabana anywhere in that case. Arnold is one of two sitting Governors that call themselves members of the Mainstreet Partnership – check their website…

The Mainstreet Partnership angle bears mention – Arnold is their poster child of what a Republican should be… Post-Partisan. It underscores the differences between the RMSP and the rest of the GOP. Read their scarlet letter if you have any questions about their vision of Unity in the GOP…

As to Arnold – watch him endorse property theft by local government, then read about him ripping on rural California… Nice, eh? Republican Main Street Partnership – the Republicans that are too sophisticated to cling to their Guns and Religion.

Arnold should be campaigning for Ose…

Karen England and the CRI had a few things to say about Arnold’s recent comments ripping on Northern Californians:

In a Beverly Hills speech yesterday, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger made fun of “little town” legislators. Answering a question about why more lawmakers don’t travel the world to bring back ideas for our own nation, Schwarzenegger stated:

“—-I always encourage the legislators in Sacramento, because some of them come from those little towns. (Laughter) You know what I’m saying? They come from those little towns and they don’t have that vision yet of an airport. (Applause) Or of a highway that maybe has 10 lanes or of putting a highway on top of a highway. They look at you and they say, “Well, we don’t have that in my town. What are you talking about?” So they are kind of shocked when you say certain things.”

According to the Sacramento Bee, “His comments on small-town legislators drew laughs and applause from the big-city audience at the Beverly Hilton.”

“Most Californians are from small towns, and those citizens are hard working Americans with traditional values, stated Karen England, executive director for Capitol Resource Institute. “For the governor of California to ridicule legislators, and their constituents, is disgusting.”

“The governor is belittling our existence by attacking our elected representatives as unsophisticated rubes incapable of understanding complex issues of governance and technology,” continued England. “These unbelievable comments are further proof that Arnold Schwarzenegger is completely out of touch with our state and is an elitist.”

“How can we be assured that the governor will defend the average Californian’s values when he laughs at us and considers us backwards hicks?” questioned England.

“The governor’s comments bring to mind Barack Obama’s recent derogatory comments in San Francisco about small town citizens clinging to their guns and Bible,” stated Meredith Turney, legislative liaison for Capitol Resource Family Impact. “Both elitist politicians had no problem disparaging their constituents in front of friendly audiences in San Francisco and Hollywood. Average ‘little town’ citizens don’t want San Francisco or Hollywood ‘values’ forced upon us by arrogant office holders.”

Tell Governor Schwarzenegger what you think about his insulting comments.
