Apparently, it was a false quote.

Friday New York Times:
"I admire [Hitler] for being such a good public speaker and for what he did with it."

Saturday New York Times:
"In many ways I admired people ? It depends for what. I admired Hitler for instance because he came from being a little man with almost no formal education, up to power. And I admire him for being such a good public speaker and for his way of getting to the people and so on.

"But I didn't admire him for what he did with it. It is very hard to say who I admired and who are my heroes. And I admired basically people who are powerful people, like Kennedy. Who people listen to and just wait until he comes out with telling them what to do. People like that I admire a lot."

If anyone ever doubted the bias of the LA Times and NY Times, the events surrounding the CA recall should convince them.

Heard a blurb on the radio last night how Arnold and some friends disrupted a Neo-Nazi rally in Austria when they were teenagers.
