Arnold Schwarzenegger echoes another famous Austrian

"Screw your freedom".

You know, it's not that big a jump from "Screw your freedom, there's a pandemic going on" to "Screw your freedom, there's a climate change crisis in progress" (basically, for leftists, it's "Screw your freedom, [insert justification here]").

  1. All you need is a good crisis, and then you pass the Enabling Act.

    In the Roman Republic there was the Senatus Consultum Ultimum, the so-called "Final Decree." It authorized the consuls to take whatever action was needed for the security of the state, regardless of the niceties of law.

  2. Not a surprising take from an Austrian bodybuilder who married a Kennedy, despite the claim to be a Republican.

  3. One of the things that ticks me off the most about the Glorious Now!, is how many GOP folks I've defended who turned around to spit in my eye.
    Remember when we thought Arnold was at least somewhat conservative?
    Or she of The Handmaid's Tale on the Supreme Court? Or Roberts on same? Or George Effin W Bush? Or.....
    Just ticks me off.

  4. V: Yeah, I'm pretty bummed out by all of the hypocrisy, cowardice and ulterior motives of so many GOP politicians, too. Patriots are fighting so many wars on a dizzying number of fronts.

  5. I'd not known that Arnold's father was a Nazi.

    The apple doesn't fall very far from the tree, eh?
