Curiouser and curiouser still

In the waning hours of the California gubernatorial election, the rants and accusations of a dying governor's administration become more frantic. No better evidence can be found than to scan the stories on the Internet, like this news snippet:

New Sex Allegations Emerge Against Arnold

Rhonda Miller has hired L.A. attorney Gloria Allred to represent her.

Miller claims Schwarzenegger groped her while she worked as a stunt woman on the set of Terminator II and the movie True Lies.

Rhonda Miller, stunt woman: "I am speaking out publicly now because in the last few days, there seems to be suggestions from Arnold's camp that Arnold didn't do what he is alleged against him in the L.A. Times."

Miller says she reported the incidents to the Screen Actors Guild six months ago, before Schwarzenegger became a candidate.

Schwarzenegger has not commented publicly on this latest allegation.

There's just one small problem: It may be a complete fabrication.

A caller to a local Los Angeles radio station took issue with Ms. Miller's claims. The caller was a make-up artist on Terminator II and True Lies, and explained that it was he, not Schwarzenegger who took the photos, and that Arnold Schwarzenegger had nothing to do with it. More interesting is the fact that the caller said that Ms. Miller eagerly volunteered to have her breasts photographed, and her photo was included with dozens of other photographs of breasts taped to the ceiling of the makeup artist's trailer.

Is it just me, or is the irony of True Lies not lost on Ms. Miller and Ms. Allred? Or, for that matter, Gray Davis and his cronies?
