Imagine No Global Warming?
Nice little video: Imagine There's No Global Warming
Schwarzenegger criticized Bush about global warming. The guy that flys from L.A. to Sacramento daily has the gall to criticize Bush? Guess Arnold never heard the think globally, act locally. At least he doesn't fly around like Gore....

Change in Presidential Honesty?
(You can't help but long for this kind of honesty in politicians again.)
When President Truman retired from office in 1952, his income was substantially a U.S. Army pension reported to have been $13,507.72 a year. Congress, noting that he was paying for his stamps and personally licking them, granted him an 'allowance' and, later, a retroactive pension of $25,000 per year.
When offered corporate positions at large salaries, he declined, stating, 'You don't want me. You want the office of the president, and that doesn't belong to me. It belongs to the American people and it's not for sale.' Even later, on May 6, 1971, when Congress was preparing to award him the Medal of Honor on his 87th birthday, he refused to accept it, writing,

'I don't consider that I have done anything which should be the reason for any award, Congressional or otherwise.'We now see that the Clintons have found a new level of success in cashing in on the presidency, resulting in untold wealth. Today, many in Congress also have found a way to become quite wealthy while enjoying the fruits of their offices. Political offices are now for sale. Good old Harry Truman was correct when he observed,
'My choice early in life was either to be a piano player in a whorehouse or a politician. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference.'
