Schwarzenegger: Subliminal Message or Coincidence?

Oh my...    :ack:   http://www.redding.com/news/2009/oct/28/schwarzeneggers-veto-message-contains-hidden-insul/

SACRAMENTO, California (AP) — Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger typically attaches a message to bills he signs or vetoes telling lawmakers why he took the action.

A Democratic assemblyman who heckled the governor during a recent event in San Francisco actually received two messages: the veto letter itself and a not-so-subtle rebuke creatively hidden within it.

Like a find-the-word puzzle, the second message was visible by stringing together the first letter of each line down the left-hand margin. It consisted of a common four-letter vulgarity followed by the letters "y-o-u."

"My goodness. What a coincidence," said Schwarzenegger spokesman Aaron McLear. "I suppose when you do so many vetoes, something like this is bound to happen."

Remainder of text omitted here for brevity.


And here's the document in question:  http://gov.ca.gov/pdf/press/2009bills/AB1176_Ammiano_Veto_Message.pdf

To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 1176 without my signature.

For some time now I have lamented the fact that major issues are overlooked while many
unnecessary bills come to me for consideration. Water reform, prison reform, and health
care are the major issues my Administration has brought to the table, but the Legislature just
kicks the can down the alley.

Yet another Legislative year has come and gone without the major reforms Californians
overwhelmingly desire. In light of this, and after careful consideration, I believe it is
unnecessary to sign this measure at this time.

Sincerely,


Arnold Schwarzenegger
