Christie lost me when he had two state elections about a month apart. Elections are not free. They cost money and Christie could have saved the state of New Jersey a bunch of money by combining the two elections. However, Christie did not want to be on a ballot with Cory Booker despite the fact Christie and Booker were not running against each other. If he would throw away the state of New Jersey's money without any concern, why should I trust him with my tax moneyUp until now he claimed neither he or his staff had anything to do with this. Now some pretty damning emails have come out showing his staff laughing about it -- and well, it's not looking too good for the upcoming Pressy hopeful.
'Explosive documents' connect Christie, bridge scandal | MSNBCThe Bergen Records Shawn Boburg published details that connect the scandal to the governors office in ways that raise the stakes of the controversy considerably.
A cache of private messages between Governors Christies deputy chief of staff and his two top executives at the Port Authority reveal a vindictive effort to create traffic problems in Fort Lee, apparent pleasure at the resulting gridlock, and insults used to refer to the boroughs mayor, who had failed to endorse Christie for re-election.In mid-August, just a few weeks before the lane closures, Bridget Anne Kelly, one of three deputies on Christies senior staff, emailed David Wildstein, the top Christie executive at the Port Authority who ordered the closures.
The documents obtained by The Record also raise serious doubts about months of claims by the Christie administration that the September closures of local access lanes to the George Washington Bridge were part of a traffic study initiated solely by the Port Authority. Instead, they show that one of the governors top aides was deeply involved in the decision to choke off the boroughs access to the bridge, and they provide the strongest indication yet that it was part of a politically-motivated vendetta a notion that Christie has publicly denied.
Time for some traffic problems in Fort Lee, she told him. Got it, he replied.
Christie cancelled his only public appearance today. He's got some splainin' to do.
To which we say: Please proceed, Governor...
The absolutely last thing this country needs is a vindictive president who can put his finger on the "button" if he gets pissed!
The only politics in Jersey is corruption. You don't become governor just because you have off-the-cuff oratory skills. A buddy of mine owns a large scale contracting firm and has divulged that the way he got contracts was by handing over envelopes of cash. That's how you win a bid. That's Jersey.

Ron, are you in New Jersey? The Ft. Lee entrance into the GWB is probably one of the busiest, most clogged intersections in the U.S. UNBELIEVABLE if this is true, that he would pull this shit and close those lanes. I didn't want to believe it, either. But hey, you are so right about the two elections a month apart. What a huge waste of money.

That's just New Jersey, hmmmm? There's a turnip truck cruising the area looking for you right now.....
Oh, I know.....Texas. They're squeaky clean there. Oh, and let's not forget Illinois. Boy Scouts there. Northern Virginia? All good Christians.....Uh-huh.
Christy is NOW DONE

Nope. Not Cruz. But it will be fun watching him waste rube money on his doomed campaign.

So cynical. Obama's legacy was supposed to be so much more.
What does Christie have to do with Obama's legacy?
I don't think so. His top staff were obviously way involved and it shows poor management skills if people he picked were dishonest to him like that. Not to mention some of the horrible things they said. Those emails are pretty damaging."I've made it very clear to everybody on my senior staff that if anyone had any knowledge about this that they needed to come forward and tell me about it and they've all assured me that they don't," he said at that time.
He covered his derriere with that statement. Now he will fire the senior staffer.
Also, his "nothing to see here, move along" attitude about it -- on either side of it, will add 150 pounds to the weight around his ankles.

It's Obama supporters who favor Christie. Obama's thuggery has numbed them to thuggish behavior from others. Obama who was supposed to show how good government is has left us all more jaded.

For today's "let him die" Republicans, isn't that kind of a requirement?

Then he is NO Republican, now is he? He's a progressive. Period.Because he's one of the few republicans close to understanding reality? Rational in some areas...
What you fuckers want and what America is, is two very different things. Society is a private/public system that works very well...
