==Political views==
−
Despite being a [[Republican]], he holds some [[liberal]] views. He is a supporter of [[gun control]] and [[environmentalism]].  He is a staunch supporter of a law that mandates the use of Californian taxpayer money to fund [[stem cell research]] - which is the cloning and killing of human embryos for experimentation; he is also [[pro-choice]]. Arnold officially approved an [[assisted suicide]] measure allowing nurses to sedate, dehydrate and [[starve]] depressed or confused individuals they consider to be "[[terminally ill]]." <ref>[http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=76713 California approves nurse-assisted suicide] Worldnetdaily, October 02, 2008</ref> (Compare [[euthanasia]].) Governor Schwarzenegger also campaigned against the famous California [[Proposition 8]]. He is also married to [[Maria Shriver]], a famous journalist who is a member of the historically liberal [[Kennedy family]]. Because of these and other policies he is often referred to as a "[[RINO]]," a "Republican in Name Only" by many [[conservative]] [[Republicans]]. Other sources have labeled him a "California Republican," meaning that his political policies are conservative but his views on civil liberties lean to the liberal side, reflecting the general attitude of most Californians. Many Republicans have expressed disappointment at the fact that Schwarzenegger was not as robotic and terrifyingly uncompromising as his character in the "Terminator" films.
