You will notice that it lacks definiteness; that it lacks purpose; that it lacks coherence; that it lacks a subject to talk about; that it is loose and wabbly; that it wanders around; that it loses itself early and does not find itself any more. --Mark Twain |

Send to email | Governator mocks folks from small towns in Policy and Politics | By Thoughts el 01-May-2008 | Governor Schwarzenegger addresses insider trading tycoon Michael Milken and a few of their richest friends:
"…I always encourage the legislators in Sacramento, because some of them come from those little towns," Schwarzenegger said. "You know what I'm saying? They come from those little towns, and they don't have that vision yet of an airport or of a highway that maybe has 10 lanes. Or of putting a highway on top of a highway. They look at you and 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." I anticipate denunciations and a cable news frenzy shortly. At least he didn't attribute bitterness to these people; people whose houses are being repossessed while the school systems have to lay off teachers, health care reform languishes, and family members return from Iraq wounded or dead might possibly be bitter.
