August 27, 2003Dean rally in Falls Church
August 25, 2003On Saturday, I attended the “Sleepless Summer” event in Falls Church, a rally for Howard Dean, former governor of Vermont, and Presidential candidate. While it wasn’t quite as cool as the Ralph Nader super rallies in 2000, it was a nice little grass-rootsy kind of event. They estimated about 4000 people showed up.

Ahnold’s entry
August 13, 2003I find it highly amusing that everyone is actually taking Arnold Schwarzenegger’s run for California governor somewhat seriously. These are many of the same people who blasted Tim Robbins and Janeane Garofalo and Michael Moore for speaking out against the war, saying that they are just entertainers and they don’t know enough to talk about such things. They’re also blasting Arriana Huffington for not having the smarts or background to handle the world’s fifth largest economy (California’s budget). I guess the difference between them and Arnold is that he’s not actually telling anyone where he stands on any issues. He’s just out to “terminate” Gray Davis. It’s a damn shame too, because with the compressed 8 week schedule until the recall election, he might actually manage to stay quiet on most of the issues so that everyone votes for him purely on his name recognition.
Arnold, if you want people to take you seriously, start talking now. Otherwise, you’ll just turn California into an even bigger circus.
Janeane, Tim, and Michael, keep speaking your minds. You’re what makes America great.
