Isn't it interesting that the media who proclaim the latest greatest warblings from the Hollywood Left in multi-headines, say ~~~~~~~~~~~~ 'there is something scary about the idea of actors in politics'............... And those same media types want to have us believe they are serious and professional!!!! HA! The Sacramento Bee editorialized that "there is something scary about the idea of actors in politics." Numerous pundits similarly dismissed the idea of an actor running for high office in the Golden State. They scoffed at his lack of experience and his tendency to stumble on the stump. The politicians said that he was "shallow" and out of touch with the lives of ordinary citizens. Democrats, especially, liked to make fun of his films, and a handful sent a raft of memos to their boss, the incumbent governor, promising to "hang [the actor] on the specifics." The governor, for his part, said the thought of the actor in the statehouse "moves me to great lengths" ? and called him a simpleton who excelled at "parroting the words of scriptwriters."
