Schwarzenegger to Detroit: "Get Off Your Butt" on Fuel-Efficient Vehicles

2008-12-02T08:58:02Z

Complete video at: fora.tv

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger criticizes the American automobile industry for its reluctance to embrace environmentally-friendly innovations.

-----

In signing a landmark climate change law two years ago, Governor Schwarzenegger put California ahead of the parade to a low-carbon economy. "The global warming debate is over," he declared. Public awareness has surged since then, but most of the hard work still lies ahead.

How will California meet its goal of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases 25 percent by 2020? Will offshore oil drilling be resumed? Who will pay for the transition to sustainable energy? Will California's energy and environmental laws become part of a national plan under a new president?

The governor will provide an update and his vision of the road ahead - The Commonwealth Club of California

Arnold Schwarzenegger is an Austrian-American bodybuilder, actor, businessman, and politician, currently serving as the 38th Governor of the state of California.

Miami, FL 01/25/08

TRANSCRIPTION
MIKE HUCKABEE: "It's a different, uh, picture for Cuba because of our long history that has been established since the 1960s. And, uh, we have a very distinct policy when it relates to Cuba, one that I think we should continue, and that is that if you get a foot on, uh, dry soil, you should be able to come here. Cuba is unique, it's only ninety miles away. The only logical place for a person to come if they are able to escape the tyranny of Cuba is here, and so I wouldn't do anything to change that policy one iota. Um, my policy on Cuba has been absolutely crystal clear, and, uh, we wouldn't change that."

Meet and Greet
Le Mars, IA 11/20/07

TRANSCRIPT:
QUESTIONER: I was just wondering what makes you a guy who wants to be here?

FRED THOMPSON: Well, I think we got to keep our eye on the ball. I think, at the end of the day, the American people are going to vote not against somebody, but for somebody. Some of us are already falling into the Clinton theme. One day they are campaigning based on strength and leadership. The next day, theyre ganging up on her. All the guys are jumping on her. So were out there, one day our guys are pounding away and making fun of her and carrying on, all her speeches are about Hillary, Hillary, Hillary. And then the next day they went, oh my goodness, shes turned things on us. How do we react to that? My answer to that, for our nominee, and my answer if Im the nominee, is going to be Im going to be me. Im going to talk about the future of this country. Im going to talk about national security. Im going to talk about future prosperity of the world these kids are going to grow up in. Im going to talk about the unity that were going to need as a nation to get through these things. And time and time again, Im going to draw contrast with my policies and her policies, if shes the nominee. But I will not pick up the paper every morning to find out what she said, or what shes doing, or whether or not shes the tough guy, or the nice guy that particular day to determine what Im going to do. Im going to be me, put forth my policies, do my thing, my vision of whats good for America.

Radio Town Hall
Sioux Center, IA 12/21/07

TRANSCRIPT:
FRED THOMPSON: I keep up pretty closely with this I spent a lot of time on matters of national security when I was in the Senate for the Republicans I managed the homeland security bill when it passed. I like to think it had something to do with the fact that we havent been attacked again since September 11 I know the kind of world we live in, Iraq and Afghanistan are part of a much bigger problem now, of radical fundamentalism. We live in a world now where we could be attacked for a long time and not even know were being attacked, with biological weapons and things of that nature. They are intent on bringing down Western civilization and were the number one target of all of that.

Mike Huckabee
Meet and Greet, Scott County Republican HQ
Davenport, IA 12/21/07

TRANSCRIPT: MIKE HUCKABEE: We do face serious threats to our national security. A lot of people have misrepresented my own position. I have not been critical of the president, but I will tell you the one difference is that we won't enter into a battle, as our former defense secretary said, who made this comment, we go to war with the army we have, not the army that we want. And I would suggest that our philosophy change in my administration. And it would be this: we don't go to war with the army we have, we don't go to war until we have the army that we need, and when we put an army on the field, it's not only everything we need, it's a whole lot more than the enemy ever thought was coming at them. We have to have the toughest, well-equipped, best-prepared, most overwhelming military force in the world to have the kind that nobody on this planet ever wants to engage in a battle. That's the kind of military this country's gonna have under a Mike Huckabee presidency.
