This morning on "Fox & Friends," Geraldo Rivera made a joke about bodybuilder-turned actor-turned Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who F&F co-host Brian Kilmeade recently interviewed. Kilmeade boasted that he was actually stronger than Schwarzenegger, prompting Geraldo to ask, "Cause he's off steroids?" Someone let out a "Whoa!" and the newsroom fell into an awkward silence.

First rule: NEVER LEAVE THE PLAYBOOK!!!

That was the awkward silence of people in abject fear. Watch any old Nazi movie and the same silence appears when someone misspeaks and everyone checks themselves to see if they are gonna go down with the dead man walking. The only thing missing were the close-ups with sweat running down faces.

But look at Kilmeade's face-- humorless, forced into a blank state that says... "Hey look, I'm not with him. I'm part of the program! Don't send me away too!"

The all had: Guilt By Association Terror.

Arnold started using steroids in Montreal, which was where he trained when he first came to North America, and I know this for a fact because I know the guy who worked for Bernie Cornfeld who purchased them for him. Cornfeld did this because Arnold was the partyboy at his parties for NY bigwigs who flew up for them.

Well it is a big deal when he was also a member of the President's Commitee on Physical Fitness under Reagan. The only pre-gubernatorial political experience he had. Juicing is a reality but parading around like youre the paragon of a healthy athletic lifestyle just to get your foot in the door of politics is this side of hypocritical.

But then again, it's a bit like Elvis Presley getting appointed an anti-drug post under Nixon. It kinda shows you how out of touch with reality most Republican presidents tend to be.

Geraldo broke the cardinal rule: Republicans do not speak ill of republicans. Fox news is undeniably the most bias name in news and is a branch of the republican party. It is wrong to speak ill of republicans on fox news. I think you can hear them sniker and laugh to themselves whenever they say "Fair and Balanced". It is just like a conservative can not use the phrase "compasionate conservative" without breakin g out a stupid ear to ear grin.

Support your country, flush the GOP!

Kilmeade Doocy and Alysin (i think) reveal their own ignorance and bias. Geraldo is simply more informed about history and the facts than they are.

Their reaction is due to present-day antipathy toward doping. What a bunch of ignorant turds!

Not only has Ah-nold admitted using steroids in 1967, he has given credit for his physique to said enhancing chemicals. They helped him develop his muscularity and definition. He ADMITS it! But these douchebags (because he is Republican) are appaled that Geraldo (who is factually accurate, even if his remark is snide) would DARE desparage the "Governator."

Has Arnold EVER denied using steroids when he was a pro-bodybuilder and a 7 time Mr. Olympia champion? He even wrote about using them in 1967, primarily to preserve muscle while dieting.

I don't see what the big deal is. It's not like Arnold has EVER denied using steroids back before they got officially listed as a scheduled narcotic.

If Imus can call Obama a pussy (even though Obama could probably stuff him into his own hat), then Geraldo can make a joke about Arnold having taken steroids.
