Nevertheless, Shriver said on Thursday that he was surprised to learn of the governor’s decision, as reported by Fox News. Shriver, a Shriver was the commission chairman and Eastwood served as the vice-chairman. They led the panel in its unanimous opposition in 2005 to a toll road that cuts through San Onofre State Beach, which is one of Gov. Schwarzenegger is lobbying for a budget plan that would close-down 48 state parks and reduce in half the number of lifeguards at its beaches in To read the entire article from Fox News, link here:

written by Nobody's Fool , March 21, 2008 Being fired is NOT the same thing as NOT being reappointed! This type of Board position is for a fixed term, and such persons serve at the pleasure of the Governor. Please check your journalism and sensationalism meter - it's way off kilter with your misleading headline. Also, since both Shriver and Eastwood were originally appointed by the previous (now disgraced ex Governor Gray Davis), they typically would have been replaced with a new Governor. Since they were already personally reappointed once by Schwarzenegger - he's already proven that he is fair. Two terms is reasonable and customary and the right amount of time served - three terms is excessive. The real story will be in examining who Schwarzenegger appoints to fill these seats.

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger dropped his brother-in-law Bobby Shriver and award-winning actor-director Clint Eastwood from a state parks commission. Both of them oppose a Schwarzenegger-backed proposal to build a six-lane toll road through a state park.
