Arnold Schwarzenegger is afraid of nurses...
Edited on Sat Feb-26-05 05:19 AM by Andromeda

Nurse is asked how she got into screening.


"Kelly Di Giacomo said she received a call Tuesday from one of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's bodyguards, asking how she got into the "Be Cool" film screening attended here last week by the governor. Di Giacomo, a nurse at a Kaiser hospital near Sacramento who had been detained at the theater for questioning, asked why she would be considered a threat to Schwarzenegger. The bodyguard replied: "Well, you were wearing a nurse's uniform," Di Giacomo said.

The confrontation is the latest flare-up between members of the California Nurses Assn. and the Schwarzenegger administration over workforce issues. The nurses group is among the governor's most vocal critics, willing to disrupt his events with loud protests.

At the Feb. 15 screening in Sacramento, they stood in the rain outside the historic Crest Theatre near the Capitol, waving signs and booing. Celebrities including Vince Vaughn and the Rock came to the showing, which was organized to promote movies made in California..."

big bad stud muffin kicking the butt of a lovely, caring nurse.

Maybe the teacher's union can use it as well.

Just start a meme of a man kicking women... It wont play well with conservative men. They like to protect women.

4. Conservatives don't like women....
especially ones who stick up for themselves. The good old boys are laughing their asses off and praising the Gropenfurher for this.
