Foreign Coverage

It takes an Australian journalist to analyze the recall debate correctly:

ANY doubts over Arnold Schwarzenegger’s acting abilities may have finally been put to rest yesterday when he delivered an Academy Award-winning performance as a politician.

The movie muscleman was treated like a schoolyard weakling by his four prime rival candidates for governor of California. They ganged-up on him over his questionable political credentials and fuzzy policies during a 90-minute televised debate.

But the star of the Terminator movies, who had avoided close scrutiny and TV debates ahead of the October 7 recall election, returned fire with the ease and apparent enjoyment of a veteran political combatant.

I couldn’t agree more. Arnold cleaned their clocks.

And then again, many foreign journalists get things even more horribly wrong than our homegrown liberal media. Like in this dispatch titled “Schwarzenegger is an angry man”
