Maureen Dowd grazes with Arnold....


Maureen, my buddy, wrote a perfectly blah column this morning after grazing with Arnold.  I had a cat named Arnold once. He was named after the pig on Green Acres, the Ziffle kid.  Now we have yet another and he is Govenor of California and aside from similar acting styles and raw talent, well one was fat and the other buff but that's about it.

Arnold's wonder quote for the decade was:

"People change very quickly, and you can’t complain because that’s the way people are. Work somewhere in a soup kitchen or something if you can’t take the pressure."

Hey Arnold, first it doesn't look like you missed many calories in your life. More imporant you want to see real pressure? Then get your ass over to a soup kitchen that has more people than food and tell that to a kid or a homeless mother who has made a choice today between scrapping for food for her and her kid so they can go another day or a trip to the clinic for some antibiotics that are, for the kid, a dream of the past.

When the peasants with pitchforks come strolling down Rodeo Drive, honest to god buster, I'm goint to point out your table.
