How Governor Schwarzenegger Survives the Workday
with daily jet travel.
Question to the Governor: Governor, also global warming came up in discussions today and there have been recent reports coming out that you’re flying up and down the state as much as on a daily basis in a jet that puts out a lot of global warming emissions. So how do you reconcile your public rhetoric on global warming versus your personal lifestyle choices?
Answer from the Governer: Are you always that positive? (Laughter) What a positive guy. I explained that one already. To me it’s very important that I serve the people of California, but also at the same time that I serve my family. And so in order to do both I fly two or three times a week up here to Sacramento and fly back again so I can be at night with my family, can do the homework with the kids, can spend time with my wife and everything, which is extremely important. I promised that to them and I promised to the people of California I would take care of the job. And that’s what I do. That’s why I fly up to Sacramento and all over the state. (Applause)
It’s so helpful for the governor to mock reporters in the name of service.
Does the Governator know about things like webcams on laptops, or even *gasp* telephones? My dad worked on the road most of his life, and he called home on a regular basis without ever having the benefit of a cell phone.
He doesn’t like to be bothered with details like that. It makes him feel small.
No girly man is he.
