He Said It…

San Francisco Columnist Debra Saunders sat down with Governor Schwarzenegger and asked him “How is the budget you presented for the next fiscal year different from what Gray Davis would have done? Schwarzenegger said he didn't want to compare himself with Davis, who, he said, wanted to make more budget cuts.”

In between swings of his Conan sword, Schwarzenegger lamented the fact that when it comes to State Government, we have to play by rules of Democracy:

“’We are very ambitious’, he noted, ‘but when you work with 120 legislators, everyone's hacking and chipping away and it slows down the process. The advantage that we have is democracy, but the disadvantage is it's not a dictatorship.’" (San Francisco Chronicle, April 14, 2005)
