What better PR could a politician leaving such a significant position as governor of California ask for than an animated series depicting him as a superhero? Not to be deterred by things like voting records, economic indicators or events that transpired during his time in office, Arnold Schwarzenegger is returning to the entertainment world in cartoon form. Behold: “The Governator.”  —KA

New and Improved Comments

We are launching a major overhaul of our comments section.

In addition to more robust spam filtering and moderation, new features include the ability to rate other comments, sort how they are displayed and respond directly via e-mail or in a thread.

Unfortunately, commenters will lose their existing Truthdig identities. It's a pain, we know, but on the plus side you will now be able to log in with a plethora of options, including Google, Twitter, Facebook and Disqus accounts.

Before launching this system we spent months in discussion with our top commenters. We listened to the feedback and we hope you like what we've come up with.

Please direct any problems or concerns to us via our contact page.

I kept looking to see if this was in the humor section but this is actually
happening? And it’s carrying *that* title?

How lame can you get? All anyone needs to know about Arnold is he is a jerk. A man when a private citizen and adult who thinks having siren on his car entitles him to turn it on and plow thru traffic is not to be taken serious. A man who takes a high office and creates a circus is not to be trusted. Arnold belongs right up there with baby Bush.
