This post in yesterday’s Flash Report is funny for two reasons, what the Governor actually said and poster Adam Probolsky’s reaction to it.
In introducing (State GOP chairman Ron) Nehring, the Governor half joking said: Ron has agreed to bring the Republican Party more toward the center. Schwarzenegger quickly followed with: You better be careful, Fleischman will be all over you for that.
“…I was pretty surprised to hear the Governor invoke Jon’s name in that way when Jon wasn’t even there.”
I’m not surprised.ÂÂ
I believe that it means the Governor no longer fears the wrath of the Flash Report or the call of the hardline right winger like Jon.  I found the comment dismissive of the Flash Report; a laugh at you not laugh with you moment.

The wingnuts just don’t understand how irrelevant they have become. Despite their dominance of the news, their own propaganda network, and their network of rich philanthropists churning out talking points, the American people have had plenty of time to see what crooks, liars, and incompetents the ratical frigh can be when they get power. Arnold understands that they are sad little losers.
Well-said, AGI.
But we should look as critically at the wing nuts on our side. The extremists on the left cause liberals to lose credibility with the majority of moderate Americans.
Who else here is enjoying watching the FlashReport et al zoom themselves into insignificance.
