TERMINATOR COPS A FEEL (OR TWO, OR THREE...)
Schwarzenegger essentially admits to sexual harassment

and, oh yeah, that Nazi thing, too


From the AP via the Houston Chronicle:

Gubernatorial front-runner Arnold Schwarzenegger, acknowledging he has "behaved badly" to women, apologized today and promised he has changed.

Here's why the Total Recall candidate for California governor had to apologize:

Three of the women quoted in the times said Schwarzenegger grabbed their breasts. Another said he reached under her skirt and grabbed her buttocks. Another woman said Schwarzenegger tried to remove her bathing suit in a hotel elevator, and the sixth said Schwarzenegger pulled her onto his lap and asked whether a certain sexual act had ever been performed on her.

And

The Times, quoting two of the women by name and the rest anonymously, said the instances of unwanted fondling and groping allegedly occurred as far back as 1975 and as recently as 2000.

Also, the Terminator apparently used to admire that other well known Austrian, Adolph Hitler:

Asked who his heroes are, he answered, "I admired Hitler, for instance, because he came from being a little man with almost no formal education, up to power. I admire him for being such a good public speaker and for what he did with it."

He is quoted as saying he wished he could have an experience, "like Hitler in the Nuremberg stadium. And have all those people scream at you and just being total agreement whatever you say."
