We’ve found the Governator’s weakness: paying taxes. Arnold Schwarzenegger owes Uncle Sam $79,064 in back taxes for 2004 and 2005, according to documents filed in LA County Superior Court. Those would be the first two full years of Schwarzenegger’s rule over California. TMZ checked with the LA County Recorder’s Office, and confirmed that the lien is still active. Maybe he hasn't got the money; lord knows it's not easy balancing a budget. (More Arnold Schwarzenegger stories.)
