Yeah, there’s a legal reason I won’t be president either, Arnold. Did you know Chicago has the largest phone books in the world? Printed right in Chicago, too. I’m sitting on three of them now. Do you like Elvis? He was a movie star too. Are you making any movies now? How about shooting your next one in Illinois? You could come with me and watch the Cubs play. Funny story, on the way here I was in the limo and this girl on the sidewalk points at me and says…

Blago to Arnold:

You have a huge forehead, you should try parting your hair forward instead of going with the “updo.”

- OneMan - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:43 am:
Rod: Remember that part of Commando when you said “Remember how I said I would get you last, I lied” then you tossed the guy over the ledge?

Arnold: Yes, I do. I think Fitzerald said the same thing to you right?

- DOWNSTATE - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:45 am:

Yo Arnold, “going green” in Illinois has nothing to do the environment, it’s our euphemism for a campaign contribution! Psst, the Feds will never catch on, tee hee hee.

- A Citizen - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:11 am:
RB: Wow! It is really neat to meet a real governor who has benefited from a recall move unlike me who . . . . ?

- Fox Mulder - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:17 am:

I would wager that Rod had his handlers locate and place him in a taller chair so that he would compare well next to Mr. Fitness in this photo op.

- Dirt Guy - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:56 am:

Humor -
Schwarzenegger: “Quit raising money in LA!”
Blagojevich: “As soon as you quit raising money in Chicago.”
Schwarzenegger: “People think you’re sitting on something - they don’t realize I’m only 6′ tall … .”

Serious - Arnold is only 6′ tall - even. Until 2004, his staff kept the Sacramento reporters away from him and would not answer any questions about how tall he was. The Sacramento press flushed it out when he stood next to Bush 43 during the 2004 campaign.

- Jacknife - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 12:25 pm:
Rod: I’ll show my plane if you show me yours.

Republicans would like him to run for President and he wasn’t even born here. I’m a natural born citizen of the US and I can’t even get the Dems to ask me to run.
