Recipe For Disaster

Governor Schwarzenegger has whipped up quite the feast for any one who likes to pig out on pork, budget pork that is. From the state budget to his theatrical press conferences, Schwarzenegger loves adding the pork into the pot.

One of the governor’s meatiest ideas: the special election. The special election will waste over $80 million dollars of taxpayer funds that voters say they don’t want or need! And now legislators are calling on the governor to cancel the election to stop the wastefulness.

“Democrats stepped up calls for Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to cancel the Nov. 8 special election Thursday…With a budget approved, it's time for Schwarzenegger to call off the election and work with the Legislature on bipartisan reforms rather than barreling forward with three initiatives, said Senate President Pro Tem Don Perata.” (Contra Costa Times 7/8)

Seeing as how Schwarzenegger is such a fan of the “other white meat” we’ve attached a handy little guide for Californian’s so they can identify just what the governor’s budget pork looks like.
