  16. - Vote Quimby - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:27 am:

    Yeah, there’s a legal reason I won’t be president either, Arnold. Did you know Chicago has the largest phone books in the world? Printed right in Chicago, too. I’m sitting on three of them now. Do you like Elvis? He was a movie star too. Are you making any movies now? How about shooting your next one in Illinois? You could come with me and watch the Cubs play. Funny story, on the way here I was in the limo and this girl on the sidewalk points at me and says…


  17. - The Doc - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:28 am:

  27. - Wacker Drive - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:39 am:

    Arnold - No Rod, I’m not loaning you a penny for your defense fund.
    Rod - Just kiddin’ Arnold.


  28. - VanillaMan - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:40 am:

    RB: “I got a movie suggestion! You made that ‘Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines’, so how about ‘Terminator 4: Fall of the Chicago Machine’?”


  29. - babyblues - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:40 am:

    Oh Crud: Here comes a reporter. Can you lean forward a little so I can hide.


  30. - Bluefish - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:41 am:

    Arnold: Ja know, I do know a thing or two about recall elections.


  31. - Rich Miller - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:41 am:

    OK, VM, it’s time to let others have a crack at this.


  32. - VanillaMan - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:41 am:

    The Eraserhead meets The Eraser


  33. - Speaking At Will - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:43 am:

    Blago to Arnold:

    You have a huge forehead, you should try parting your hair forward instead of going with the “updo.”


  34. - OneMan - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:43 am:

    Rod: Remember that part of Commando when you said “Remember how I said I would get you last, I lied” then you tossed the guy over the ledge?

    Arnold: Yes, I do. I think Fitzerald said the same thing to you right?


  35. - DOWNSTATE - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:45 am:

    Arnie one more kick back from a state contractor and the mansion is all mine.


  36. - In the Land of Silos and Cows ... - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:48 am:

    “Yah, and Blagojevich spelled backwards is … quit annoying me!”


  37. - wordslinger - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:48 am:

  39. - Anonymous - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 10:55 am:

    Gov. Rod “A” Blagojevich- “Aw, do you really think I’m cute?”


  40. - If It Walks Like a Duck... - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:04 am:

    Yo Arnold, “going green” in Illinois has nothing to do the environment, it’s our euphemism for a campaign contribution! Psst, the Feds will never catch on, tee hee hee.


  41. - Lefty Lefty - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:05 am:

    Nice hair. Would that style look good in my mug shot?

    Arnold, do you think I’d look good without bangs?


  43. - VanillaMan - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:08 am:

    RB: “Do you think cars are wide enough for a bumper sticker with us as a presidential team?”


  44. - A Citizen - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:11 am:

    RB: Wow! It is really neat to meet a real governor who has benefited from a recall move unlike me who . . . . ?


  45. - Fox Mulder - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:17 am:

    Rod: Did you know I said “testicular virility” at a press conference?

    Ahnold: Coulda fooled me.

    AS: “Weibischer Mann”


  47. - anon - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:18 am:

    RB: Seriously, they offer barber school in the Big House!


  48. - Roll the Credits - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:18 am:

  49. - VanillaMan - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:20 am:

    RB: “How many Germans does it take to screw in a lightbulb?”
    AS: “Germans have Serbs do that kind of work for them.”


  50. - You Go Boy - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:23 am:

    Twins, II


  57. - John Bambenek - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:43 am:

    Blago: you know I saw your first film, “Pumping Iron” and I was fascinated by that.

    Arnold: are you the gay governor?

    (Bonus points if you get the reference)


  58. - amy - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:48 am:

    The Terminator meets the soon to be terminated.


  59. - Marbley - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:48 am:

    Well ElvisRod, do I have the keys to the Mansion in Springfield in my right hand or left hand. Wrong, anyway. But I’ll beeee back! Seeing ya never use the place. Sorry about the broken toys.


  60. - Truthful James - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:49 am:

    Arnold: Is that the Capital Funding Bill you are sitting on?

    Blago: No, its Senator Jones’ shoulders.


  61. - Belle - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:49 am:

    RB : ‘I’ve never played well in Peoria….’
    AS : ‘Then don’t go baaaaack…’


  62. - Jake from Elwood - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:54 am:

    I would wager that Rod had his handlers locate and place him in a taller chair so that he would compare well next to Mr. Fitness in this photo op.


  63. - Dirt Guy - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 11:56 am:

    Arnold -

    I can’t believe this guy still laughs at Ronald McDonald. What a dweeb.


  64. - train111 - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 12:09 pm:

    The star from”The Terminator” and soon the soon to be released blockbuster “The Terminated”


  65. - Mammacat - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 12:09 pm:

    My hair’s prettier than yours!


  66. - Follicle - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 12:21 pm:

    Baloneyvich -

    “My hair is much better than his.”


  67. - Smitty Irving - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 12:24 pm:

    Humor -
    Schwarzenegger: “Quit raising money in LA!”
    Blagojevich: “As soon as you quit raising money in Chicago.”
    Schwarzenegger: “People think you’re sitting on something - they don’t realize I’m only 6′ tall … .”

    Serious - Arnold is only 6′ tall - even. Until 2004, his staff kept the Sacramento reporters away from him and would not answer any questions about how tall he was. The Sacramento press flushed it out when he stood next to Bush 43 during the 2004 campaign.


  68. - Jacknife - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 12:25 pm:

    Rod: I’ll show my plane if you show me yours.
    Arnold: Someone please get the knucklehead outta here!


  69. - Just Sayin' - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 12:31 pm:

    R - “I have more money than you Governor”
    A - “Ya but you can’t claim all da General Fund taxpayers money as yours Rod”
    R - “Why not? Worked for me so far”


  72. - North of I-80 - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 12:40 pm:

    A - “I got dis job from a Total Recall… looks like one is coming your way”
    Rod - “Really? I always wanted to be in a movie.”


  73. - Joe T. Elmwood Park - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 12:56 pm:

    Can you get me Hannah Montana tickets?


  74. - cardsmama - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 12:57 pm:

    Rod: Do you really know Hannah Montana? Will you introduce me to her? Please, please, pretty please!


  75. - Squideshi - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 1:11 pm:

    “Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich seen looking toward California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, and AWAY from a reporter on his left.”


  76. - Squideshi - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 1:11 pm:

    Correction: Make that OUR left–his RIGHT.


  77. - Wild Bill - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 1:17 pm:

    Arnold: You gave your non-union home contractor cash?
    Blagoof: No not me, TR gave the cash to the guy. I justed put the guy on the gaming board, promised to make him a lot of money and introduced him to Jill and Tressa.

    This picture was taken before the Governator lifted the wannabe over his head for a military press!

  81. - stop drinking the cool aid - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 5:57 pm:

    Arnold: I can’t believe this guy can run for President of the United States and I can’t!

    or…

    Arnold: The recall provision in the Constitution was the best thing to happen to my political career. Too bad you can’t say the same.


  82. - In the Sticks - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 6:37 pm:

    Wordslinger has my vote! Just the kind of understanding of reality RB seems to present.


  83. - downhereforyears - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 7:07 pm:

    Ok now everone look a the picture again.
    Blago…Arnold, I really think your cute.
    Arnold…Stop it girly man


  84. - Anonymous - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 7:22 pm:

    Oh my gosh…it’s the Terminator. I can’t believe I’m sitting next to the Terminator. LOOK at his hair! That is good looking hair. I am SITTING right NEXT to the Terminator, man! Republicans would like him to run for President and he wasn’t even born here. I’m a natural born citizen of the US and I can’t even get the Dems to ask me to run. It’s the TERMINATOR, man…I am sitting next to the TERMINATOR!!!!!


  85. - Expatriot - Wednesday, Apr 30, 08 @ 7:40 pm:

    “Arnold why are you laughing when I say, I’ll be back.”


  88. - Ahem - Thursday, May 1, 08 @ 5:14 am:

    Rod: “…really a nice guy, and he can help you a lot. So OK, I’ll have Tony call you and see what you guys can get going. I’m sure you’ll hit it off!”

    Arnold: “Heh, heh. Whatever.”
