Muscleman-turned-actor-turned-politician Arnold Schwarzenegger called on Barack Obama to beef up his policies -- and his body -- John McCain and Arnold Schwarzenegger at a high-voltage campaign rally for Republican John McCain on Friday.
Schwarzenegger, the Hollywood action hero who is now the Republican governor of California, delighted a crowd of several thousand at a McCain campaign event in Ohio by ridiculing both Obama's policies and his slender physique.
The Austrian-born former Mr Universe has hosted a bodybuilding tournament in Columbus for several years, and opened his address by inviting Obama to participate in the next event.
"Every year in March I come here to organize the Arnold Classic, which is all about building the body and pumping," Schwarzenegger said.
"That's why I want to invite Senator Obama because he needs to do something about those skinny legs. I'm going to make him do some squats.
"And then we're going to make him do some biceps curls to beef up those scrawny little arms. But if he could only do something about putting some meat on his ideas.
"Senator McCain on the other hand is built like a rock. His character and his views are solid."
McCain and Schwarzenegger rolled into the Nationwide Arena Hockey Stadium together on the Republican candidate's "Straight Talk Express", the campaign bus that has ferried him on a two-day blitz of this battleground state.
While McCain received loud cheers, it was Schwarzenegger who provided some much-needed glamour and the biggest cheers with a searing attack on Obama's economic policies. He meanwhile painted former Vietnam War prisoner and navy pilot McCain as a "real-life American hero."
"John McCain's character has been tested as no other presidential candidate in the history of this nation," Schwarzenegger said. "He has spent five and a half years as a prisoner of war. He has been tested under torture, under temptation, under deprivation, under isolation.
"He has proven what kind of a man he is. We don't have to wonder if he's ready to lead. We don't have to wonder is he ready to be president of the United States. John McCain has served his country longer in a POW camp than his opponent has served in the United State Senate."
Ohio is a must-win state for McCain, 72, who is trailing Obama in a clutch of pivotal battlegrounds won by outgoing President George W. Bush in 2004.

US drops plan to put diplomats in Iran
The Bush administration has shelved plans to set up a diplomatic outpost in Iran in part over fears it could affect the US presidenti
al race or be interpreted as political meddling, according to reports.
The proposal to send US diplomats to Tehran for the first time in three decades attracted great attention when it was floated seriously at midyear but has been placed on indefinite hold as November's election nears and Iran continues to defy demands to halt suspect nuclear activities, officials said.
Two administration officials familiar with the matter spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal administration deliberations on the sensitive subject.
The officials said it had been decided to leave the decision to the next US president because it could be seen as a reward for Iran's nuclear intransigence especially when Iranian policy has become a major part of the heated campaign between Democrat Barack Obama and Republican John McCain.
Obama has called for unconditional direct talks with the leaders of potential US foes like Iran and North Korea, assuming that groundwork laid by lower-level officials indicated that the top-level talks would be fruitful.
McCain has ridiculed the suggestion as naive. Thus, opening an "interest section," or de facto embassy, in Tehran could be interpreted as a Republican president helping a Republican nominee by neutralising a distinction that might make the Democrat appealing. Or, it could be seen as hurting McCain by leaving him to defend a more hard-line position than the current Republican president.
Either way, the administration concluded that now was not the time.
"There is no desire to inject this into the campaign," the second official said.
The idea's demise represents the end of any marquee efforts to remake the US relationship with its most formidable Middle Eastern adversary before President George W. Bush leaves office.
Although, Bush once called Iran part of an "axis of evil" and says Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is dangerous, he also had allowed a variety of tentative overtures toward Tehran.
The best-known effort would have had Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice sit down for negotiations over Iran's disputed nuclear program, with the tantalising prospect of expanded talks on other subjects.
She said she would go anywhere to have those conversations, including Tehran, if Iran met its side of the bargain.
That offer went nowhere, in part because Iran refused to meet the US terms to begin talks.
A diplomatic office in Tehran would have served several purposes.
It would provide a public face for the US government in a country where suspicion of the United States runs deep and perhaps increase US influence. It also might have made it easier for Iranian citizens to apply for visas to visit the United States.
The idea of creating an interest section in Iran similar to the one the United States runs in communist-run Cuba has been around for some years. It gained new traction in June when veteran diplomats began to look again at the plan with Rice's blessing.

Biggest job-cut in US in 5 years
US employers slashed payrolls by 159,000 in September, the most in more than five years, a worrisome sign that the economy is hurtling toward a deep recession.
The Labour Department's fresh snapshot, released on Friday, also showed that the nation's unemployment rate held steady at 6.1 percent as hundreds of thousands of people streamed out of the work force for any number of reasons.
The reduction in payrolls was much sharper than the 100,000 cuts economists were forecasting. They expected the jobless rate to be unchanged.
It marked the ninth straight month that the economy has lost jobs. The drop underscores fallout from a long slump in the housing market and a dangerous credit crunch that intensified last month, throwing Wall Street - and the economy - into chaos.
Wall Street appeared relieved the decline in payrolls wasn't deeper. Stock futures were strengthening, pointing to a higher opening. The Dow fell 348 points on Thursday amid worries about the broader economy.
Employers cut 73,000 jobs in August, slightly less than the 84,000 initially estimated, according to revised figures. However, the cuts in July turned out to be a bit deeper - 67,000 versus the 60,000 previously reported.
The 159,000 jobs lost in September were the most since March 2003, when the labor market was still struggling to get back on its feet after being knocked down by the 2001 recession.
Job losses in September were widespread. Manufacturers cut 51,000 jobs, construction companies axed 35,000 jobs, retailers got rid of 40,000 positions, business services shed 27,000 and financial services slashed 17,000 positions, with securities and investment firms accounting for 8,000 of those reductions. Leisure and hospitality companies also reduced employment by 17,000. That overwhelmed employment gains by the government, in education, health and elsewhere.
Cost-cutting employers are getting rid of workers as companies chafe under a slew of problems related to the economy's slowdown, a painful housing collapse and a dangerous credit crunch.
Companies announcing layoffs in September included Hanesbrands Inc., Hewlett-Packard Co., Schering-Plough Corp., Alaska Airlines and Alcoa Inc.
Friday's employment snapshot is the last before America goes to the polls in November.
Mounting job losses, shrinking paychecks, shriveling nest eggs and rising foreclosures all have weighed heavily on American voters.
The economy is their No. 1 concern. An Associated Press-GfK poll earlier this week showed that likely voters now back Democratic presidential contender Sen. Barack Obama 48 percent to GOP rival John McCain's 41 percent. They believe Obama is better suited to lead the country through the financial turbulence.
To avert even more economic upheaval, Congress is weighing a $700 billion plan to buy bad assets from banks and other institutions to shore up the financial industry. The legislation is urgently championed by President Bush and his top economic generals.
Spooked consumers and businesses have pulled back so much that some analysts fear the economy could stall out - or even worse - shrink in the July-to-September quarter. Many predict the economy will contract in both the final quarter of this year and the first quarter of next year, meeting the classic definition of a recession.

Rooney Fit to play for England
I am a great fan of Man U Footballer, Rooney. And i was very upset with his ankle twist during the match against Aalborg in Denmark on Tuesday. The fitness coach of his club said that he is fit to play for England in the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Kazakhstan and Belarus.
Those were allayed by a Manchester United spokesman, who said: "Wayne has an ankle injury and is considered doubtful for Saturday's game against Blackburn, but he should recover in time for England's forthcoming matches."

Arsenal seems to build on UEFA Chamions League
Gunners dint have a good season for the past 3 years. Last year they were at the top of the table for around 6 months and then slipped to 3 place in the end of the season. But Arsene Wenger's stomach will have been settled by Tuesday night's demolition of Porto in the Champions League after the Frenchman revealed last weekend's Emirates Stadium defeat by Hull had left him feeling sick.
And his usual picks had perhaps redeemed themselves just in time with their 4-0 midweek success as Wenger certainly has plenty of young talent in reserve waiting for a chance, as the 6-0 League Cup thrashing of Sheffield United demonstrated just days before the Hull reverse.
Opposition from the north are again on the Gunners' radar, in the form of Roy Keane's Sunderland, who play hosts at the Stadium of Light on Saturday, and Wenger believes last weekend's traumatic experience will ensure his players are fully focused this time.
"We responded well against Porto," the Frenchman said. "First of all it was important to show that Saturday was an accident. We gave the first half of the response on Tuesday night and we want to give the other half on Saturday at Sunderland.
"When you go to Sunderland, you want your team to be completely at its best, and focused. I believe what happened last week will help us to do that. The pain was big, the response was good. I believe we have a healthy attitude in the squad and that has been shown against Porto. We want to show we have learned from the defeat against Hull."
With Arsenal also having lost at Fulham already this season, Wenger is aware that the margin of error available to his side is diminishing.
"I do not think, looking at the league table, the Hull result has too much of an impact," he said. "But it is damaging because you do not want to lose at home against anybody."
Sunderland, who also suffered a 2-1 home loss last week, to Aston Villa, fear that Hull's success will probably diminish their own chances of success, or at least remove any complacency that might have lingered in the minds of men who will soon have World Cup qualifiers around the globe on their minds.
A good performance from goalkeeper Craig Gordon is likely to be vital for the Black Cats therefore and the Scotland international admitted the Hull result was one his side could have done without.
"You don't expect results like that," he said. "You would probably expect a bit of a backlash but we're at home and we'll be ready."
Gordon was also confident that the Premier League table, which sees Manchester United in 11th and Hull and Wigan in the top half, would adopt a more familiar look before long.
"You expect the teams that are always up the top to find their way there fairly soon and I'm sure that will happen again," he said.
"But there's been a fair amount of jostling below that and some of the teams coming up from the Championship have done fairly well.
"You always get that bit of uncertainty but I'm sure things will start to settle down pretty soon and we'll see where everyone will come in the reckoning after that."
Sunderland, who finished 15th last season, are currently two places above that slot but have already been beaten in front of their own fans twice this season, by Manchester City as well as Villa.

US Senate approves Indo-US nuclear deal
It has been a historic day you know why US passed the Indo-US Nuke deal. The deal has been waiting for almost three decade to make its way. Final approval came as the Senate voted to ratify the deal 86-13, sending the legislation to Bush to sign into law.
The Senate's move came just ahead of an expected trip to India this weekend by US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
The House of Representatives has already approved the pact, which the Bush administration believes will secure a strategic partnership with the world's largest democracy, help India meet its rising energy demand and open up a market worth billions.
But critics say the deal does grave damage to global efforts to contain the spread of nuclear weapons, by letting India import nuclear fuel and technology even though it has tested nuclear weapons and never signed the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
India has a yawning energy deficit, and the accord opens up this market worth billions to American companies such as General Electric and Westinghouse Electric, a unit of Japan's Toshiba Corp.
Rice spent much of the past month in an all-out effort to persuade Congress to approve the pact, which the Bush administration says will transform the US-India relationship.
Bush wanted the deal approved before leaving office in January; Congress is expected to adjourn soon for elections.
The accord enjoys bipartisan support in Congress, where many lawmakers favored it as a way to create jobs in the US civil nuclear industry while cultivating the small but affluent Indian-American community.
Critics said the deal was deeply unwise, overturning decades of US policy of refusing to sell nuclear technology to nations lacking full safeguards against that technology's diversion into nuclear weapons programs.
"Why are we rushing to pass this gravely flawed agreement?" demanded Senator Tom Harkin, an Iowa Democrat, before the vote. There was nothing in it, he said, to prevent India from resuming nuclear testing. India, which first detonated a nuclear device in 1974, last tested in 1998. The deal would also weaken US efforts to deny Iran a nuclear weapon, Harkin said.
He said Indian entities already had sold sensitive missile technologies to Iran, which the Bush administration suspects is pursuing a nuclear bomb.
But supporters said they expected India to move quickly to negotiate a new safeguards agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency.
"The benefits of this pact are designed to be a lasting incentive for India to abstain from further nuclear weapons tests and to cooperate closely with the United States in stopping proliferation," Indiana Republican Senator Richard Lugar said.
Before approving the pact, the Senate rejected an amendment by Senator Jeff Bingaman of New Mexico and Senator Byron Dorgan of North Dakota, both Democrats, making clear that another Indian nuclear test would lead to termination of the deal.
Lugar argued the amendment was unnecessary, saying India had been warned repeatedly that the consequences of another test would be "dire": US nuclear trade would be cut off. The deal could open up around $27 billion in investments in 18-20 nuclear plants in India over the next 15 years, according to the Confederation of Indian Industry.
But there is global competition. France announced on Tuesday that it had signed a nuclear cooperation agreement with India, and Russia is already building two 1,000 megawatt reactors in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu.
Local media say India's monopoly Nuclear Power Corp has tentatively picked four suppliers, including Westinghouse Electric and France's Areva, for planned new projects.
India is also reported to be negotiating with General Electric, Japan's Hitachi Ltd and Russia's atomic energy agency Rosatom.
