Source Article
| Quote: |
SACRAMENTO, California - Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger typically attaches a message to bills he signs or vetoes telling lawmakers why he took the action.
But a Democratic assemblyman who heckled the governor during a recent event in San Francisco may have received more than one message: the veto letter itself, and a not-so-subtle rebuke creatively hidden within it.
Like a find-the-word puzzle, a second message is visible if one strings together the first letter of each line down the left-hand margin of the letter.

Here is a link to the letter itself.
If he did that on purpose, I find it supremely hilarious.  Schwarzeneggar rocks.

That's nothing compared to the gaffes that Gov. Rick Perry made so far.
One time, he told a camera reporter after an interview "Adios, Mofo".
Then, in a gubernatorial election ad for another candidate, it showed Gov. Perry telling a state trooper "Why don't you let us get back on the road?"

There was also a prior story about him sending a vulgar metal sculpture to another politician as a gag gift too

Here's the one I will always remember:
At Ronald Reagan's funeral in 2004, Kentucky Gov. Ernie Fletcher was almost shot down when his plane accidentally entered restricted airspace.

| Thats nothing. In the 70's prime minister Pierre Trudeau of Canada "once did a pirouette behind the back of Queen Elizabeth II" and is commonly known for flipping the bird at some protesters. Hit the wikipedia page for more info. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Trudeau |

| Benjamin Franklin did that too, that’s why we didn’t let him write the constitution. |

It could have been coded profanity or it could have been a coincidence. Unless the Governator tells us that he intended the profanity, we will have no way of knowing.

And then there's the whole "Fuddle Duddle" incident in the House of Commons.

That seems like an innocent mistake to me, but it's still funny as heck
