No, you aren’t a demagogue. But that’s where this line of thinking leads in the mind of a creative writer.

I predict a presidential election battle between Paris Hilton (D) and K-Fed (R). It will be decided by the amount of friends they have on MySpace. And so onâ€¦

HOLY SHIT

It would only be annoying if I was right.

No, it’s annoying because you keep doing it and you have no real basis for it other than the fact that I’m saying something about Arnold Schwarzenegger who happens to be a hero of yours. If it was true, I would just say that it was true. What the fuck would I get by lying about this?

10 years is long enough for me to play that loser script. It is a loser script.

Cool, don’t play it anymore!

Except a career in demagoguery for a select few.

So you’re suggesting I’m a demagogue? It’s a good thing I don’t know what that word actually means, specifically!

It would only be annoying if I was right. But anyway, I just can’t relate to this “Oh, no! Big powerful rich people are out to get us and enslave us in a global police state!” vibe anymore.

10 years is long enough for me to play that loser script. It is a loser script. It leads no where. Except a career in demagoguery for a select few.

Iâ€™ve even made peace with the Bush family.

They haven’t made peace with you. Yet.

Its totally going to happen, because it would be the stupidest thing possible.

Word.

Ted, that’s incredibly presumptuous (and annoying) of you to tell me what my emotional state is, especially since I’m just being purposely provocative towards you.

Svenson, the other reason I think Arnold will *definitely* be president: the movie Demolition Man said so way back in the 1990’s!

Itâ€™s just too ironic not to have happen. All the pieces are in place. Itâ€™s just a matter of pushing down the first domino.

My two cents: Its totally going to happen, because it would be the stupidest thing possible. Just like Bush II is stupidest thing that could have happened in that election, and Clinton II is the stupidest thing that could happen in this election…A point in history is coming where Arnie will be the stupidest thing that could happen, then George P. Bush will be, so he’s in…Then maybe Cheney or Clinton’s daughter. Its hard to predict what will be stupid that far in the future…

Its not to say just that these people are stupid, just script writers behind reality. They’ve lost their zing and now its all sequels and formula movies.

No, I just think you are in a down cycle. The body seeks equilibrium. You can’t be up all the time. Actually you can, once you realize how these cycles work. But the Cancer diet thing, obsession about prisons…its kind of morbid.

But people find people that are positive all the time annoying…so maybe being morbid at times makes you more personal…dunno. Use it to your advantage.

Well, how is believing in a “Crash” a loser script, but believing in the inevitibility of an Global police state not?

Why do you firmly believe in some Orwellian Nightmare Police state ruled by Arnold Schwarzenegger?

It’s just too ironic not to have happen. All the pieces are in place. It’s just a matter of pushing down the first domino.

Why? You make it sound like its a slam dunk like saying â€œI firmly believe in glabal warming.â€

I actually believe in the Arnold thing way more than I believe in global warming.

So you know for a fact he isnâ€™t going to retire from politics or have a heart attack, before he becomes head dictator?

How would I know that for a “fact”? Don’t be ridiculous.

It could be that you and I are interfacing right now, but later we will split off into different alternative Universes. You to one ruled by Arnold in a Police state and I into a more positive Universe.

Nah, I don’t buy that as an explanation. It’s too sci-fi and new agey.

Maybe we have that power. Careful what you wish for.

Oh yeah, I firmly believe that The Governator will rule over a police state. Of that I have no question. I am loathe to call him “evil” however, although I do believe that individual people may come under the sway of evil, even if they themselves are not necessarily “Evil.”

I have seen it too up close to think that Evil doesn’t exist.

Ted Heistman — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 19:07:20 +0000

No, but you write within a certian millieu; a certian genre, that villifies Arnold Schwartzeneggar, thinks of him as the next dictator. You can nitpick and say you never said that, but you imply it, by going along with the implications that have been made and evoking imagery of a police state ruled by “Gov. Terminator”

I don’t remember saying he was evil.

Do you believe that evil even exists?

By: Ted Heistman

Ted Heistman — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 17:14:48 +0000

I have to say, I don’t see Arnold as evil. I think he is a living example of the power of self mastery. All his success started with him achieving mastery of his physical body.
