Only In California
Sometimes I really hate living here. The line between reality and the movies is a little too thin out here. Never more so, to my mind, than in this story.
Warren, get serious, or get out! The situation is far too grave out here for stunts. I would probably disagree with every policy you had, but in the shape we're in, serious governance is the order of the day. Serious governance would accept all voices that played reasonably and you would be welcome, even if you would be wrong, but this crap does nothing to solve the problem at all.
Beatty, Bening try to crash Arnold's event
Actors Warren Beatty and wife Annette Bening tried to crash a campaign appearance Saturday by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger as the governor sought to drum up last-minute support for a group of statewide ballot measures.California has some very serious problems. Schwarzenegger has done the right thing in trying to solve them. He has come into the system, run for office and done his darnedest to fix things. Beatty, who has made no secret of his opposition to the Guvenator's policies, responds with stunts and "threats" to run for Governor.
The Hollywood couple strode side-by-side to the entrance of an airport hangar where several hundred of the governor?s supporters had gathered.
A Schwarzenegger aide told the "Bulworth" star he was not on the guest list and did not have the appropriate wristband to get inside.
