The Gover-Nator's Message

Guest blogger Patrick Baldwin


It Turns out when Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoes a bill he attaches a message explaining why. Well in his latest message some are reading a not so subtle message. Here is the message courtesy of the State of California website .



To the Members of the California State Assembly:
I am returning Assembly Bill 1176 without my signature.
For some time now I have lamented the fact that major issues are overlooked while many
u nnecessary bills come to me for consideration. Water reform, prison reform, and health
c are are major issues my Administration has brought to the table, but the Legislature just
k icks the can down the alley.
Y et another legislative year has come and gone without the major reforms Californians
o verwhelmingly deserve. In light of this, and after careful consideration, I believe it is
u nnecessary to sign this measure at this time.
Sincerely,
Arnold Schwarzenegger


According to AOL, the target of the message was a Democratic Assemblyman who sponsored the bill and who apparently heckled The Gover-Nator at a recent event. The Assemblyman even shouted "you lie" during the Governor's speech. Sound familiar?
