    I can just see him sitting at the governor's desk, the sword in one hand, his head held in the other...
    his brow: TROUBLED.

    From today's LA Times:

    California holds a garage sale -- with cars autographed by ...

    Is Conan's sword next?

    California has the highest taxes of any state, and is still in financial ruin.

    Here's a hint: it's a spending problem.

    @Darklighter: I live in CA. We are slaves to special interest groups here. Mainly big Agriculture. I can say with almost totaly certainty that if Arnold wasn't in office, we would have NEVER attempted to adopt green energy standards. Keep in mind, Arnold can't run for president and he doesn't even take a salary. So, his "interests" are limited. Give him a break.

    Thank you Mr. Schwarzenegger. That sword cut the budget at my school and all of my classes has also been cut.

    At least I know what did it.

    @nerdwa:
    If you really think the Governor somehow has the magical ability to fix California's self-inflicted budget disaster, you really do need some more schooling.

    Here's a hint - even NPR places the blame squarely on California's ridiculously ill-considered referendum system.

    He'd better enjoy it while he can, until the team from Warehouse 13 sneaks into his office and swaps it with a replica.

    Does he casually pick that thing up in the middle of a personal speech with other political leaders to show dominance in the state of California?

    One more reason for me to be enjoy the fact that he's the current governor of my homestate.

    I'm just annoyed I can expect to get back to CA after he hands over the duty to someone who'd be far less fun to watch walking up to a podium during a green technology promotion!

    That sword is just in case terrorists try to attack California. Then he'll pull out the Conan sword and the minigun from Terminator 2 and save all of our ungrateful asses.
