I wouldn't want to ask people to just give me money cause they like my website, but do please take a quick look at Barger's Boutique. You might find yourself a little something-something for 2 or 3 bucks that you just can't resist! Any of the round images you find around MoreThings will get you to an Amazon page to buy my stuff and help ol' Al keep the lights on.

To explicitly state the obvious, these external links go to interesting and provocative websites, but they speak for themselves. I don't necessarily agree with anything they say - especially that no-goodnik Richard Marcus.

Arnold blitzkriegs California With due respect to Snoop Dogg, today's post-election mantra is
Ar-NOLD'S up side your head
Arnold's up side your head
I don't necessarily care that much about Schwarzenegger. He'll likely be better than Davis, if only on the grounds that a random name plucked from the frickin' phone book would be an improvement on that weasel. On the other hand, Arnold's rhetoric has so much mushy compassionate conservative nonsense as to make him pretty suspect.
What does make me especially happy about his victory is the rebuke it represents toward all the haters. I'd be hard pressed to think of another American political campaign in my lifetime that was near as vicious and malicious as the unwarranted wickedness thrown at Arnold Schwarzenegger. I'm happy to see him win just on that ground alone.
The calls for a retributory recall against Schwarzenegger started before the polls even closed. Every left wing jackass going was threatening legal challenges to the election. Jesse Jackson was all but literally foaming at the mouth about voters being disenfranchised by the lack of "infrastructure" for a legitimate election. Apparently minority group members were not being allowed to vote or something- though of course he could cite not a single example of even having long lines at a polling place, despite the high voter turnout.
A reasonable person of a left wing persuasion might be somewhat skeptical of Arnold. Will he be proposing some cuts in their favored programs? Possible, but his rhetoric has been really mostly to the liberal side- and he did marry into the Kennedy family.
Instead, however, many pinkos have absolutely gone off their beam and come after Arnold with every wicked thing they can accuse him of, no matter how ridiculous. This long time support of Jewish causes has been smeared as a Nazi overthrowing democracy.
OK then, let me gleefully indulge/rub your face in your dumb dystopian fantasy just a bit...
I look forward to Arnold taking office. It's going to be sweet. First thing, he will doubtless declare the state constitution null and void, and declare himself emperor for life.
Second thing on the agenda, he'll definitely be doing away with all those pesky laws against rape and sexual battery and such. All them cheesy pinko Democrats in the legislature can definitely look forward to getting groped- for starters.
Of course he will be replacing the state flag with a nice classic swastika.
Naturally education reforms will be required. Doubtless Mein Kampf and Protocols of the Elders of Zion will be newly required reading in grade schools. Wagner will surely become the centerpiece of school music curricula.
Of course there will be internment camps for all the undesirables, starting with the commies and homosexuals. [Don't worry, Brian- I'll get you asylum down here on the farm in Indiana.]
Oh yes, all you pencil necks better watch out, cause
Its gonna be real hard times for all of these
grit eatin',
scum suckin',
boot lickin',
drop kickin',
gut grindin',
nail bitin',
glue sniffin',
scab pickin',
butt scratchin',
egg hatchin',
sleezy,
smelly,
pepper bellied,
dirty, lousy, rotten, stinkin', freaks.
Yeah, Arnold is really going to be doing the "Blitzkrieg Bop" all across the state- before he moves the National Guard into position to start taking over neighboring states.
***********************
OK, end o' cheesy fantasy.
Arnold seems to have a pretty calm personality, quite even tempered. This is fortunate, considering all the noise from these sore losers. What a bunch of infantile nonsense. In practice, rather than all this silly Nazi stuff, with all these overgrown left wing babies to deal with, he'll be closer to playing out his old movie role as the Kindergarten Cop.
