If Schwartenegger = Bremer, that means that Davis = Saddam? MS SLATE writes: >... In his first news conference since unseating Gov. Gray Davis, the man formerly known as the Terminator largely held off on any substantive announcements, opting to repeat campaign promises instead. Among other things, he reaffirmed his pledge not to raise taxes and to repeal car tax hikes. He also strongly hinted that he will hit up President Bush for federal aid to help cover the state's ballooning budget deficits. "I look forward to asking him for a lot, a lot of favors," Schwarzenegger said. <
Davis also asked for federal aid. If the Gropenfuehrer gets it, it will be an egregious example of blatant partisanship on the part of the White House. (This is despite the fact that Davis was a Republican in most ways and lost partly because much of the Democratic base was sick of his abandonment of the party.) ------------------------ Jim Devine [EMAIL PROTECTED] & http://bellarmine.lmu.edu/~jdevine > The Bushies keep comparing California with Iraq.
