Arnold is spotted on set of his new holiday film, Jingle-Kinder-Twins – the tale of two terminator brothers on a quest to save Santa from his poor fashion sense.

Michele Franklin-Hill, Virginia, USA   November 18th, 2009 7:12 pm ET

Michele Franklin-Hill, Virginia, USA   November 18th, 2009 7:17 pm ET

Arnold: Sarah, you can't be called the "terminator" unless you finished your entire term ok?

Governor Schwarzenegger went to Italy and all I got was a lousy t-shirt.

Patty A Banks, Palmdale, CA   November 18th, 2009 7:24 pm ET

Patty A Banks, Palmdale, CA   November 18th, 2009 7:26 pm ET

I want to buy California something really special for Christmas this year!

David - Plano, Tx   November 18th, 2009 7:27 pm ET

Trust me Maria, noone will know your Christmas gift was charged on the state's credit card! And I think you'll like the Gucky bag I picked out!

Ron   November 18th, 2009 7:35 pm ET

I'm walking, I'm talking, I'm flexing,I got a big fat Cuban cigar and I haven't tripped over my big feet yet. Life is good.

Once declaring his retirement from office, Arnold Schwarzenegger immediately receives a briefing about an alien, robotic juggernaut preparing to wipe technology off the face of the earth.

PHIL   November 18th, 2009 8:06 pm ET

No Barack don't hang up. Really, I'm being followed.

Bob - Massillon, OH   November 18th, 2009 8:07 pm ET

Nothing says "I don't want to be bothered" like the fake phone call.

Alex Chacon   November 18th, 2009 8:07 pm ET

Maria: Honey, are you still feeling a little down about crushing California's economy?

Arnold: I was, but I decided to shop it out. I feel much better now!!

Sherman Oaks, CA

Michele Franklin-Hill, Virginia, USA   November 18th, 2009 8:10 pm ET

Ron   November 18th, 2009 8:11 pm ET

Yeah, I had to pay for that Ferrari. I don't get it. It ain't my fault they had to cut me out of it. They need to build the things Hummersized.

Allan A Toms River, NJ   November 18th, 2009 8:13 pm ET

Hello Pizza Hut? Yes I'd like to place an order for delivery.....address is Milan, Italy.

Monica - Universal City, TX   November 18th, 2009 8:15 pm ET

Maria, you know how our prisons are overcrowded with many people, a great number of single mothers, for petty drug offenses??...I have a brilliant solution to feed all the hungry little children in our state while saving jobs within the prison system.....Italian prisons allow mothers who are sentenced to prison to bring their children.

Shawn Weintraub   November 18th, 2009 8:16 pm ET

Idon't think there are laws in Italy about walking and talking, are there???

Ron   November 18th, 2009 8:16 pm ET

The espressos are 20 euro's each. I need a caffiene fix. Do the math. Can I afford a double on my California expense account???

Allan A Toms River, NJ   November 18th, 2009 8:18 pm ET

Hello, Anderson, I think you may have pocket-dialed me. Add me on facebook while you're at it.

The bald guy I'm with wants to know my hair club for men contact info.
If I pass him the phone could you hook him up?

Andre   November 18th, 2009 8:21 pm ET

These darn Italians won't buy any of our KALIFORNIA state cars. How am I supposed to get us out of the budget crunch? I even offered to autograph them.

Lisa, Louisville, KY   November 18th, 2009 8:24 pm ET

Yes Marie, "I'll be back." After I sneak a cigarette.

Vickie Show Me State   November 18th, 2009 8:29 pm ET

I'm smoking a blunt! And, they don't suspect a thing!!

Pam Laycook   November 18th, 2009 8:33 pm ET

"Hey Suze, about those cigars.... Can I afford it????"

Allan A Toms River, NJ   November 18th, 2009 8:33 pm ET

I purchased Fiat cars for the entire USC football team.

Patrick Clarke, Toronto, Canada   November 18th, 2009 8:34 pm ET

Not many things can stand in the governor's way, and clearly, a recession won't terminate his shopping plans in Italy.

Allan A Toms River, NJ   November 18th, 2009 8:34 pm ET

Can you hear me now?

Ron   November 18th, 2009 8:36 pm ET

What do you mean they don't have Sweet Home Alabama on the karaoke machine at the spaghetti house?

Patrick Clarke, Toronto, Canada   November 18th, 2009 8:37 pm ET

Canada just banned cellphone usage while driving. The governor uses his while shopping.

Don, Elkins Park - PA   November 18th, 2009 8:37 pm ET

Tell my agent to get me a new role. I cannot do another sequel as govener.

Neilu G.-N.Ca   November 18th, 2009 8:38 pm ET

Hey Maria; Can you check the price over there? I bet it's cheaper in Mexico. I'm so confused with this Euro money. How do these little Italian people make it? I should ask them to handle the Californian budget.

Laura G   November 18th, 2009 8:39 pm ET

"Come with me if you want to live."

Robert - Palm Desert, CA   November 18th, 2009 8:42 pm ET

Whadaya mean I am not qualified to be president? I'm Governor of Calle-phon-nee–ya!

Patrick Clarke, Toronto, Canada   November 18th, 2009 8:46 pm ET

No fan screaming at him. No pen to sign his autograph. The governor clearly isn't very popular in Milan.

Patrick Clarke, Toronto, Canada   November 18th, 2009 8:49 pm ET

His ring matches his shirt. The governor proves, in the fashion capital of the world, that he is a stylish man.

Mike Rodrigues   November 19th, 2009 11:07 am ET

What did you say? The states' budget isn't balanced yet??!! So why am I smoking this cigar?? I now have nothing to celebrate, hold on I'm going to poke it out......

Nazim in Houston   November 19th, 2009 11:10 am ET

It's NOT A TUMOR!

Gina Singletary   November 19th, 2009 12:32 pm ET

I'm walking while talking on the cell phone, instead of driving – it helps offset the carbon footprint from my governator sized cigar.

Julie, Rancho Cucamonga, CA   November 19th, 2009 12:33 pm ET

Well, how low did he bow?

Paul in Albany, Oregon   November 19th, 2009 1:14 pm ET

Yah, smoking is like talking on a cell phone while driving... something I never do.

Elizabeth Sandlin   November 19th, 2009 1:17 pm ET

"Let's get this sraight- do I bow to the president, or curtsy?"

Rusty in Basseterre, St. Kitts   November 19th, 2009 2:49 pm ET

Hey, Hollywood, are there any acting jobs available. I still look the part. This job is tough.

Steve L.   November 19th, 2009 2:53 pm ET

Sylvio, you know my term is up soon. No I don't want your job, but how about those spaghetti Terminators we talked about?
Steve, Koloa, HI.

Darren, California   November 19th, 2009 3:22 pm ET

"Jack Bauer? I'm sorry, you must have the wrong number."

Helen   November 19th, 2009 4:11 pm ET

No, no, the Italians have banned it too, yes, I'm sure.

Anh from Orange County, California   November 19th, 2009 4:18 pm ET
