At Least It Wasn't Your Bill

From ABC News, a more honest veto message than we get in these parts, anyway!

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) is raising eyebrows in California for issuing a veto message that spells out "f*** you" in the left-hand margin of the page.
The former action star's f*** you message came when he rejected Assembly Bill 1176, legislation which would have expanded the financing powers of the Port of San Francisco.
The bill was unobjectionable to legislators of both parties: it sailed through the Assembly and state Senate on unanimous votes.
It was vetoed, however, by Schwarzenegger who said in his message that he considers it "unnecessary" to sign the bill at this time because another year has gone by without the legislature tackling big issues such as water reform, prison reform, and health care...
The sponsor of the bill was Tom Ammiano, a Democratic member of the State Assembly who recently heckled Schwarzenegger when the governor made a surprise drop-in at a San Francisco Democratic Party fundraiser.

Glad the governor

doesn't have any real problems in California to solve.

I'll bet the same people who gripe about me calling Congresspeople "douchebags" will think this is awesome.

yea, i'm not sure why the correlation exists

but you're right. I think you shouldn't call JP words that evoke feminine hygiene, and I think this is awesome.

Either

it's because you only care about civility when people disagree with you, or it's a form of power-worship.

I guess it could be both.

or neither

this is actually subtle, subversive and original. Calling somebody lurid names from behind an anonymous account on a blog is just.... I don't know .... so 10 years ago? Too easy? Not creative?

but me and power-worship is a pretty funny thought, thanks for that

"Subversive"?

When a governor does it, it's not subversive, pretty much by the definition everyone else uses for the word.

It's very stealthy and unexpected....

...to wield power from a position of power. One way to hide your powerful deeds is to distract people with juvenile word puzzles...and then deny doing so afterwards. Arnold got it just right.

I'm not as sweet as I used to be.

That's awesome

Go Governor Schwarzenegger.
I love this kind of stuff.
Reminds me of my dad.
Love it.
You don't, well tough.

But it is important to focus on solving problems.
Or else California will continue to decline.
Yes, very important!
See y'all.

The article doesn't mention that at that political fundraiser

Tom Ammiano (who's gay) told the Governor to kiss his "Faggot A**."

Actually, Tom Ammiano was a little more politically correct...

He said the governor could "kiss my gay ass."

Uh, ABC News wrote it

It's clearly linked and blockquoted using correct blogging protocol.

Actually if you go to the ABC News web site, half the commenters are saying this was unintentional. Which is the dumbest thing Republicans have said since earlier today.
