Author: The New York Times and the Sacramento Bee are reporting an amusing story out of California about how Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s attempt to knock some sense into the state’s free spending legislators is being stymied by an antiquated mainframe computer system. You see, California is having its annual summer shouting match between angry pols who can’t agree on next year’s budget. Democrats want to raise taxes and spend more, while Republicans – guess what? – want to put the kibosh on new taxes and cut spending instead. Schwarzenegger – known in these parts as the “Governator” – is standing between the two warring camps, with the rock steady firmness of a Cyberdyne Systems Model 101 Terminator.
