Schwarzenegger’s father was a member of the Nazi Party in Austria. Arnold also was a lifelong friend of Austrian President Kurt Waldheim, who was revealed to have aided and abetted the Nazis in WWII. As part of his administrative duties during the war, Waldheim approved a propaganda leaflet which included the phrase, "enough of the Jewish war, kill the Jews.…" Even after such information came to light, Schwarzenegger (did you know his last name means "Black Ni**er" in German?) was quoted as saying, "My friends don't want me to mention Kurt's name, because of all the recent Nazi stuff…but I love him." In 1977, during the filming of his steroidal epic Pumping Iron, Arnold allegedly said that he "admired" Hitler. And a 1992 article by Spy magazine quoted a "friend" of Schwarzenegger’s saying that back in the 1970s, Arnold "enjoyed playing and giving away records of Hitler’s speeches."
- While a college student in the 1970s, Cruz
Bustamante (did you know his last name means "Bus 'em in, man" in Spanish?) belonged to a radical Mexican campus organization called MEChA, an acronym for Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlán, which translates as "Chicano Student Movement of Aztlán." MEChA’s logo is an eagle clutching a stick of dynamite and a machete in its claws. Its slogan is, "For the race, everything; for those outside the race, nothing." The word "Aztlán" is used to describe the Southwestern United States, which MEChA claims has always belonged to Mexicans and will one day be wrested from the "gringo" invaders and returned to Mexico. The group’s constitution declares that "the call of our blood is our power, our responsibility, and our inevitable destiny."
Although Schwarzenegger has gone to great pains to donate money to Jewish causes and repudiate his past, Bustamante refuses to apologize for his involvement in MEChA.
Naturally, left-wingers will harp on Arnold’s past, while right-wingers will blather on about Bustamante’s past. Belonging to neither wing, I merely share this information with you and trust you to draw your own conclusions.
The Democrats should pray it doesn't come down to the swimsuit competition, because Arnold would be a shoo-in.
