Questions Jay Leno Should Ask Arnold Tonight

Jay Leno has a tradition of using viewer-contributed material on the air. In honor of Governor Schwarzenegger's return to Leno tonight to mark the one year anniversary of his historic announcement that he would run for Governor, Arnoldwatch.org has sent in these questions for Leno to ask Arnold:

1. Arnold, last year you said that you're rich enough that you don't need anyone else's money. Now that you are raising campaign cash twice as fast as Gray Davis, does that mean you’re not as rich as you thought?

2. You said you would be the sunshine governor and we all thought that meant you would open up government records. But you made 250 state employees sign secrecy agreements when they met with lobbyists to revamp government, and you created a charity, which does not disclose its donors that campaign finance experts recently called a political "slush fund." Why didn't you just tell the public what you really meant by "sunshine governor" -- that you'd always have a tan.

3. You said you’d sweep "special interests" out of Sacramento. But you’ve taken more than one million dollars each from the auto industry, insurers, and HMOs, and $5 million from real estate and investment king pins. How do they define special interests in Austrian dictionaries? Anyone without campaign cash?

4. You're supposedly holding a big fundraising party in Napa this weekend...any chance you'll tell us where it is?

5. You call legislators "girlie men." Don’t you wear more make up than all the female politicians in Sacramento combined?

1. I'd ask about that Enron meeting that he was at...
before he was selected as governorator.

3. what size foundation does he wear and ....
does this make him a girly-man too? What store does he shop in for the foundations exactly? Not Victoria's Secret I suspect. :evilgrin:

P.S. Where does he have his hair dyed every two weeks and how much are the botox injections costing the State?

4. Oh, and ask this one

While you were campaigning in the recall election, you kept
calling for Gov. Davis to "open the books" and that California
needed a major restructuring not more debt. But less than 6
months after you took office, you floated the largest bond
measure by a state in US history, even larger than the one
that Gov. Davis had proposed.

And another one...

Why haven't you been able to use your connections with the Bush
administration to pressure the FERC to open more investigations
into price gaming in the CA electrical market... specifically with
the intent to re-negotiate the long term contracts that Gov. Davis
was forced into signing... which led, in large part, to the
financial crises which led to the recall effort?

5. If you knew anything about Leno, and followed his show during the
Davis "recall", you would know that he totally sucks up to Arnold. Let Arnold use his show as a platform for announcing his run, for free publicity, and for victory celebration afterwards.

There is NO WAY Leno will ever do or say anything to question Arnold or make him the least bit uncomfortable. To do so would mean that Arnold would cut him off and Leno would never risk that.
