“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

What the Schwarzenegger-?

Arnold's gone a little off the deep end:
He took aim, especially, at the public employee unions he has feuded with all year.

"I'm talking about the union bosses now that want to control and want to drive our taxes up," he said.

"It is unfair to treat those public employees much better than they treat you and then you have to pay the taxes and foot the bill."

Union bosses want to drive up your taxes? Public employees want to be treated better than they treat you? If he were the President, he'd just come out and say Al Qaeda has formed a union of their own, and we must stop all unions before they spread.

I'm not sure what Arnold has seen from the unions that suggest they want to raise your taxes. And, of course, they don't have the power to do it in the first place. But reality doesn't seem to matter when you're down in the polls and looking for a way back up. You just have to pin the blame on someone else and hope for the best. And that's just what Arnold is trying to do.
