Thoughts on the CA Recall...

What I hear most from people my age who are into Arnold for Governor is that "he'll kick the legislature's ass!" or that "he'll terminate the competition." When I say something, they say "but he's the Terminator!" That sort of thing. People seem to imagine him walking up to the capital dressed in black leather, kicking down the door, pulling a very big gun and Making Things Happen.

But this really doesn't make any sense at all, because Arnold Schwarzenegger doesn't do his own stunts, so he couldn't kick down the door on his own.

Clearly, we need an actor who does his own stunts. So. Jackie Chan for Governor!

Never mind that he's not a California resident and has shown no interest in running (the whole thing is already so ridiculous I doubt anyone would notice) -- he actually could break through the glass dome above the capital building, rappel down to the floor, do a running slide down the stairs, break through the door feet first, and then leap up and kick State Senator Pete Knight in the stomach, sending him flying through a window. Surely that makes him more qualified than Arnold!

I've decided to start a write-in campaign. ::g::
