Arnold Schwarzenegger Watch: Bulworth Rips Arnold a New One

Actor Warren Beatty addresses members of the California Nurses Association, Thursday, Sept. 22, 2005, in Oakland, Calif. Beatty, a Democrat who has been mentioned as a possible challenger to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger next year, has in the past few months emerged as one of the governor’s most visible and vociferous critics.

The AFP has Warren Beatty rips California governor Schwarzenegger.

Hollywood movie star and liberal iconWarren Beatty lambasted Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger at a California state nurses convention late Thursday, but insisted he didn’t want to challenge him in next year’s election.

“I have a day job,” Beatty told the more than 500 nurses at a dinner in Oakland, across the bay from San Francisco. “I can make movies when I want to.”

What a Laugh!

Warren Beatty can make movies but who will go and see them.

But, he is RIGHT!.

He better keep his day job because the Governator would KICK his ass if he were to ever get past a Democrat primary election.

Beatty upbraided the governor for not criticizing Bush’s “mistaken gambles” of invading Iraq, not girding levees in Louisiana, and ignoring warnings that could have prevented the September 11, 2001 terror attacks.

Bulworth sounds more like George Galloway than a mainstream Democrat.

Other quotes from Wannabe Pol Beatty:

Schwarzenegger was governing by “show spin, cosmetics, photo ops, fake events, fake issues and backdrops,” Beatty charged.

“Being here allows me to make the case that not all aging, narcissistic movie actors whose children could be mistaken for their grandchildren necessarily act with the same motivation,” Beatty said.

Of course, Warren Beatty is a radical Leftie and has absolutely NO chance of being elected to any office.

But Beatty used most of his address to rail against the Republican governor’s “year of reform” ballot initiatives in the Nov. 8 special election. Schwarzenegger is pushing several measures that would curb the power of the Democrat-controlled Legislature and the state’s powerful public employee unions.

Beatty, who has criticized the governor several times this year, called the initiatives “union busting” and “fascist.”

More Galloway rhetoric.

But Bulworth likes the PR.

Schwarzenegger’s reaction:

Schwarzenegger spokeswoman Margita Thompson said “we don’t care that much about Warren Beatty, and based on his ticket sales from the past generation, I doubt anyone else does either.”

Indeed.
