Governator Makes A$$ of Himself Again

Oh! I read the title and thought he was making Last Action Hero 2.

I do have a serious question though. Wouldn't he have to have a license to legally register his motorcycle? Or do you not have to have a Motorcycle license to register it?
 
In Mass. you can ride with a permit but you cant have passangers.

Why wasnt Arny cited for being a scofflaw??? After all he got his unlicensed ass into an accident.

Maybe he had a permit when he registered, and then it expired.???
 
Maybe he is in serious poop, and his myriad lawyers are scurrying about under the leaves trying to minimise the harm...

And I second Beerina's comments about the amount of money spent in re-election attempts, etc. While that is not limited to the USA, such amounts of money mentioned in that cause do seem a trifle large, compared to the GDP of many other countries...
 
I think Beerina was saying that all the pork gets politicians elected and re-elected, rather than all the money actually spent on campaigns.

Hard to argue that point. Some of the reddest states (presumably states that are for small governemtn) take in more federal money than they contribute. Nobody but the wackiest of libertarians truly wants small government. Instead, everyone wants to cut someone else's pork, and expand, or and at the very least, preserve their pet projects.
 
Look, the man isn't smart enough to use scenes of him whupping ass in movies, like Conan the Destroyer, to promote his policies of screwing over whomever he can. To think that he needs a liscense to drive his motorcycle? You ask far too much of our Governator.

:hb:

I never thought I'd see the day where I'd start to miss Acting Gov. Jane Swift.
 
Then again, perhaps he was riding motorcycles prior to California requiring a special endorsement and simply never was aware of the change? (I doubt that) I rode for years in South florida in my younger days....(getting around on Ft. Lauderdale beach during spring break back in the early 80's was hardly possible without a motorcycle)....and there was no requirement for a special license back then. Just last year I bought a Yamaha V-star 1100 and had to go through many hoops to get my M-class certification. But there are loopholes. I met many riders who simply keep renewing their learner permits rather than take the final test. Also insurance and registration is a seperate issue from the license. You can get ins and register while holding only a learners here in Virginia.

I figure a sidecar has no bearing in this. You must have an M1 to operate any motorcycle in Cali.

But...
A standard license for driving a car cannot be used to operate a motorcycle, but according to DMV spokesman Mike Miller the relevant sections of state law make no mention of a motorcycle with a sidecar.
Miller said that means Schwarzenegger was operating within the law when he crashed.

"From our perspective, there is no violation," Miller said.

Hmmmm.........

"Make no mention..." If you register a vehicle as a motorcycle, then attach something to it (a sidecar) is that vehicle not still registered as a freakin motorcycle? So was he riding illegally or not??!!

No worries, the judge dropped the charges:

Even though police concluded he was unlicensed, the department "cannot go back and cite the governor because we did not witness the driving."

Awesome! Just like Bush before him, and Clinton before Bush. (Don't delude yourself Clinton balanced the budget. In the mid '90's he threw up his hands and said, "I give up, deficits as far as the eye can see", then got extremely lucky with the Internet boom. The boom was so big Congress couldn't keep up with spending it.)

Even that's debatable. The deficit went up every year of the Clinton presidency, but in the fiscal year encompassing '99-'00, the increase in the deficit did not outpace inflation, so the inflation-adjusted debt went down.

Congress could keep up with the boom, just not the boom plus inflation.

Here's the debt-by-year, where you can see that increased every year:
