The 'terminator', Spits on Us 'Nam Vets

The 'terminator' same same as the 'rambo', and the heroes to the 'kombat keyboarder chickenhawks', as they emulate the tough talking and gun toting non-reality, in their fantasy world of saving us all as they vegetate at their keyboards!

Once more we're 'Spit' on!!

Schwarzenegger vetoes bill honoring Vietnam veterans

"I dare the governor to veto this bill," said Assembly Majority Leader Alberto Torrico, D-Newark, before the close of Tuesday's session.

Shortly afterward, Schwarzenegger accepted the dare and vetoed Assembly Bill 264.

"Our state is facing significant challenges, including the need for comprehensive changes in our policies on water, energy, and corrections and the need to take meaningful steps to stimulate the economy and rein in the rising levels of unemployment," Schwarzenegger wrote in his veto message. "This bill does nothing to address any of these issues. I look forward to considering this measure when these other major issues are addressed."

"I'm extremely patriotic and supportive of all our troops, past and present, and while I, too, would have liked to see him pass the bill honoring Vietnam Veterans, I understand the point he is making. We have so many important, pressing issues that need to be addressed, and the legislators need to focus on them, not spend precious time on bills that, while honorable, don't deal with our economic crises at hand."

yes Arnold did all his defending of our country in fake movies and weightlifting with steroids. Stupid move Arnold but what else would we expect from someone who has to have it his way or he smashes everything else. One ore year and then .. no more Arnie.. Watch the backlash is going to set up Gov Moonbeam perfectly for another run at us. Repubs seem to have a real political death wish.

There's three pages of comments, but I'll bet little 'aces928' isn't what is being passed off as online!
