Arnold Taps Tammy Bruce for Transition Team




"Governor-elect Arnold Schwarzenegger has tapped leading feminist and best-selling author Tammy Bruce to be part of his transition team.

Bruce - a regular contributor to NewsMax.com - said late Thursday that she was "thrilled when I was asked to take part in what is clearly one of the most important and historic political transitions not just for California, but for the nation." .......................................
..............................

............In a column for NewsMax.com last week, Bruce explained what she saw as key differences between how Schwarzenegger has conducted himself when hit by allegations that he groped women and the ex-president.

" admitted it, and apologized! He did not shake his finger in the air and deny having 'sexual relations' with any woman. His wife, Maria, did not go on a morning show to blame the accusations on a vast left-wing conspiracy. No, he admitted his bad behavior and said he now realizes what he did was wrong."

1. "Leading feminist" from newsmax.com?

Oh boy... the "bizarro factor" in the CA governor's office has just gone up another notch!

2. this woman

sounds like a typical sellout. She is irrelevant.

[Lurking Dem]

3. Does she even know the definition

of consensual?

[diplomats]

7. And there's no "vast left-wing conspiracy"

Her logic is tortuous at best.

4. she's also the token gay person

she's a lesbian

[dutchdemocrat]

11. David is alleged gay

David Dreier, who is leading his transition is gay - or so the rumor says...

Beware this is a very sticky thread. Some gays want him outed as he has voted for many republican issues that have pushed gays and lesbians back into the stone age. Others say it is not right despite his hypocracy.

It's a wild one.

5. Willie Brown and Susan Estrich are also on board.

I'd love to be able to sit in on these meetings. I'm betting they will be a scream.

[diplomats]

8. To be a fly on the wall ...

[idontwantaname]

6. trying to mix in some hollywood drama into politics?...

maybe he hopes more people will get "into" it and back his potential evil agenda of tricking people to shoot their own foot...

9. I never heard of her.

Apparently inhabits Faux News too.

One of her "best-selling" books:

The New Thought Police: Inside the Left's Assault on Free Speech and Free Minds
by Tammy Bruce, Laura C. Schlessinger

Book came out in January. Amazon.com Sales Rank: 9,824

Nice co-author, eh? Book attacks multiculturalism, calls liberals a new kind of McCarthyism.

If she is a feminist, I'm probably John D. Rockefeller.

[diplomats]

10. It seems odd she would've been a chapter president of NOW

but maybe that organization has its share of conservatives.

12. He apologized

I love how they just think this makes it all better - his shit eatin' grin apology. This alone isn't enough evidence of personal reform - still a groper, still someone of poor character.

[chiburb]

13. "Taps" or "Gropes"? n/t

.

[eleny]

14. No matter who he picks - he's been picked too

[kid shelleen]

15. Bruce is psychotic

She makes Coulter look sane in comparison. Way to go, Ahnuld.

17. Read Jeff Koopersmith's great screed!

Who In Hell is Tammy Bruce?
by Jeff Koopersmith

Dec. 2, 2002 -- Washington, DC (APJP) -- Recently I've lately been peppered with mail pleading with me to look into one Tammy Bruce -- who I must admit I have spied a few times on FOX News, but knew little about.

I heard she "poses" as a liberal on various cable news shows, but blathers on more like a right-wing nut.

When a reader wrote me a couple weeks back asking, "Who in hell is Tammy Bruce, And when will she - please, please, PLEASE - pass through the digestive tract and sphincter of media detestation and into the septic tank of television history?", I popped the term "Tammy Bruce" into a Web search engine.

What I found amazed me.
