Arnold's Center

It's quite a wacky world when in my mind the sanest sounding US politician is Arnold Schwarzenegger. He's really laying down some domestic policy blueprints for either party and certainly for Governors across the Union. He has no foreign policy cred to be sure, but sane centrist pragmatism looks so good to me compared to both parties.

Some quotations from the Govenator himself:

"Politics is about compromise. It is about give-and-take. Doesn't anyone here in Washington remember that chapter from their civics book?" the Republican governor said in a speech to the National Press Club. You can't catch a socially transmitted disease by sitting down with people who hold ideas different from yours," said Schwarzenegger, a moderate who has frequently split from his party.

Hey, I caught a link to you via Backstreetpetshop (though I think I've been here before, once upon a time). But you're right. The man's saying things that make sense.
