We need less physical stong men like Arnold - who bought Chinese steel
for the San Franciso Bay Bridge rather than American Steel!

It has to do with the epigenome, of course. I myself am not quite up to my powerful rightwing self owing to a temporary case of advanced hypergluconeogenesis. I have abandoned California in favor of Miami in order to recover. Abajo Castro!

It's hard to say what Arnold was. Is he back in pictures?

But was it a good business decision to save the state money, or
was the alternative to print money to pay union steelworkers ??

OOPS !!! I forgot... California can't print money ........

Show me where they would have had to "Print Money"! Prove they did
not have the money to build it with. Remember steel workers spend
money in the local economy = China does not!

My knee-jerk response is that it might be a chicken-and-egg situation
with the question being which one came first.

Do right-wingers typically engage more in muscle building exercises
and less in aerobic exercises while left-wingers typically do exactly
the opposite and engage more in aerobic exercises and less in muscle
building exercises?

A couple of examples mean absolutely nothing, of course, but
Republican, Paul Ryan pumps iron and (deceased) Democratic Senator
Proxmire used to jog 4.9 miles to work at the Capitol every morning at
better than eight miles per hour. Senator Proxmire lived to be 90
years old, by the way.

Republicans are more likely to drive Hummers, Escalade SUVs, Lincoln
Expeditions, and trucks with big oversized tires.

Republicans are more likely to ride Harleys, especially through tunnels.

Republicans are more likely to fish for bass rather than for trout.

Republicans prefer petite blonds but end up with bitchy frigid wives.

Republicans prefer football over baseball.

Republicans prefer reality shows on TV over drama shows.

I won a Chevy Silverado Z-71 w/extended cab and bed topper with normal-sized
tires along with a Buick Le Sabre. My wife owns an Isuzu Trooper.

Although I don't own a bike, if I did it would be an American-made Harley.

I fish for walleye and lake perch, as well as chinook & coho salmon when I
am on the Great Lakes.

Petite blondes are cute but normally not worth much more than being
someone's eye candy. My wife is far from being bitchy or frigid.

My favorite sport to watch is hockey. Football is much too slow and
baseball, while one of my favorite sports as a youth, is a good way to take
a nap nowadays.

If your idea of "reality" shows is the type offered on A&E, Biography
Channel, History Channel, National Geographic Channel, Travel Channel,
Discovery Channel, and Food Network, then so be it as those are the most
frequently watched networks on my TV. I also enjoy NCIS, Criminal Minds,
Cold Case, The Big Bang Theory, The Sopranos, Treme', Boardwalk, and others.

Guess your little attempt at establishing stereotypes is another of your
lies as I personally know that I am not an exception to them. Perhaps you
got them straight from the MSNBC playbook. Or is it from having isolated
yourself on your little liberal elitist commune in the Great Northwest and
really have no idea how life is in the world.

Actually, this item was taken from a poll of television viewers.
Reality shows included The Apprentice, Survivor, and other shows like
these, both on network TV and on cable.

NCIS is OK and I watch it occasionally. Overall, I think that the plots
are pretty simplistic.

I like Criminal Minds, but Cold Case is no longer with us. Likewise the
Sopranos. I like Boardwalk Empire and Treme.

Other shows that I enjoy which fall more on the side of dark drama are
Dexter, CSI, Fringe, Law & Order, Mad Men and Breaking Bad.

I am mostly disgusted at the attempts at comedy, but enjoy Jon Stewart.

FYI, Closed Case is on all day on Fridays on ion television (Channels 305 &
306 on DirecTV).

There are two other shows I watch, Homeland on Showtime and Strike Back on
Cinemax that may interest you. Also, A&E has a series called Longmire that
is getting ready to start up again on Memorial Day that I find entertaining.

I watch Stewart & Colbert frequently myself. I got interested in The Big
Bang Theory as my grandson bears a remarkable resemblance to the Sheldon
character. It's the only sitcom I watch though.

Yes, Cold Case is closed now and only repeats are on TV. I generally
don't watch repeats although my wife kids me that with our memories
starting to fade, it won't be long before we will only need one recorded
show - we can just enjoy watching it over and over again.

Have you seen "Hit & Miss," a British series starring Chloe Sevigny as a
transsexual contract killer? That is one really strange show!

I liked "Wire" when it was on HBO, but had to turn on the closed caption
to understand what was being said by the actors.

I also liked Carnival and Six Feet Under, both now long gone.

How about "Dead Like Me," one of the few comedies that I liked. No
built in laugh track, just Mandy Patinkin and the rest of the cast
engaging in dark humor.

No, haven't seen it. What network?

The Wire was excellent, as was Oz IMO.

Luck, the short-lived HBO series about the world of horse racing with Dustin
Hoffman was a good one. It's too bad they stopped producing it after a
couple of horse deaths during filming.

No, most of my comedy is in the form of stand-up specials. Shaq's All Star
Comedy Jam is simply fantastic but it is not for sensitive ears.

Some characteristics that come to mind for me are:

1. Most Republicans now days are probably Southerners.

2. Most Republicans are probably evangelists (Southern Baptists) or
Mormons.

3. Most Republicans believe in some sort of Second Coming with the
preservation of Israel being an integral and key part of that belief.

4. Most Republicans believe in some sort of imminent disaster in which
the government loses control and/or they will have to fight the
government, or roving mobs, with their guns.

5. Most Southern Republicans would probably say that they favor
secession, but they probably really don't.

6. Most Republicans probably believe that Blacks, Hispanics
(especially illegal ones), and Muslims are responsible for most of
America's problems.

7. Most Republicans that post on this newsgroup use logical fallacies
in an attempt to defend their beliefs.

8. Most Republican politicians now days are liars and have taken lying
to an entire new level never seen before in U.S. history. Radical
Republicans are extremely gullible and will believe these lies time
and time again. They never learn.

9. Most Republican don't care if Social Security and Medicare
benefits are cut for their children and grandchildren as long as they
are preserved for current retirees.

10. Most Republicans don't really care about deficits and debt. They
want to destroy or totally neuter the federal government and use debt
as an excuse to do so.

I have wondered why they don't care.

For them, I think, this is considered a civil war, and being a war,
they need use little restraint in anything they do.

Sounds like the beginnings of the revolution.............

Now you are starting to sound like Werner.

We have survived much worse than this.
