rly, Ahnold?
srsly?!?
Teh Governator, Ahnold, courageously overcoming his personal distaste, is threatening to close fire houses and let your children burn if we don’t vote in his obscene tax increase disguised as a “spending cap.”
Arnold Schwarzenegger says “I don’t like to use scare tactics,"... “Sacramento’s budget mess has already forced departments to lay off firefighters and paramedics. And it could get even worse. Without Props 1A and 1B, we have $16 billion in new cuts coming. Could lose another 24,000 firefighters and police. And you know who that hurts? The people who depend on us."

Yes. We’ll cut firefighters—particularly with Santa Barbara ablaze and the Santa Anas beginning—rather than cut one special assistant in the Little Hoover Commission.
