The Do As I Say Not Do As I Do Chutzpah of Chris Christie

[nuhuh]

That's some tremendous management ability on display this week when Chris Christie has to order someone to lose weight. This from the guy who had lap band surgery more than a year ago and judging by the accompanying picture hasn't lost any weight at all.

"Gov. Chris Christie has ordered the leader of New Jersey's National Guard to meet the U.S. military's fitness requirements after it came to light that the commander was reprimanded by the Pentagon last year for his excessive weight and for missing physical-fitness tests.

Christie — who serves as commander-in-chief of the 8,600 citizen soldiers in the Guard — has given Air Force Brig. Gen. Michael L. Cunniff 90 days "to meet his obligations," according to a statement by a spokesman for the governor.

The issue was part of a story published Monday by the Washington Post examining ongoing allegations that there is a dysfunctional culture in the state's National Guard under Christie's administration — an atmosphere first detailed in an investigative report by NJ Advance Media in March." Christie orders N.J. National Guard leader to meet fitness requirements

Christie did lose weight, but found it yet again..how the hell do you eat so much you double in size and have no self control?

 

[Moonglow]

I got red flagged for being two pounds over weight, yet a retiring Sargent was told nothing when he was retiring 75 pounds over weight...

 

[DarkFury]

You MISS this part of the story?
" after it came to light that the commander was reprimanded by the Pentagon last year for his excessive weight and for missing physical-fitness tests."

Pentagon, BIG building, set the tests and standards. Oh and he FAILED to even take the tests. He CAN be tossed out for that moron.

But then with those TRUTHS told your agenda would seem a LIE.
Which is your point is it not? To lie.

This is hilarious. William Howard Taft ordering someone to loose weight.

But, he is supposed to be of a certain weight by regulation. This is something the Governor can't let slide. There is no weight restriction on Governors.

And the day he joins the guard he will have to meet the same physical standards. None of which apply to a governor.

Does it state the commanders age?

 

[nuhuh]

Does it state the commanders age?

It doesn't say his age only that his waist is 43.5 or 4.5 over the limit. It also says the general was warned two years ago, about the same time Christie had lap band surgery. So both of them are overdue for expected results.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Did Christie say that there should be a religious test for POTUS too?

Damn, I couldn't afford to eat and live at the same time....

Clearly a case of the pot calling the kettle black.

No tests at all for politicians I'm afraid. Not even a binet simon test

Clearly one chose to join the Air Force which has physical standards to meet to hold the job and one chose to become a governor that doesn't have those standards. You seem pissed off Christie as governor is required to enforce some laws that don't apply to him. I get that. It's not any different than us having to deal with obiecare and the assholes that voted for it are exempting themselves.

Christie had lap band surgery two years ago which compelled him to set personal standards. He has obviously failed as seen by the leading photograph, while I sympathize, he obviously can't lose weight even when surgically forced to. Whatever else, he shouldn't be in any position to tell any one else what to do.

Once again Gov Krispie Kreme betrays his "conservative roots".

A real "konsurvahtuv" would have invoked "states rights" to have an overweight general for the head of the state national guard.

No need to look any further than Hank "Guam may tip over" Johnson for that answer.

From the looks of it, It won't be long before it will be Chris "New Jersey may tip over" Christie.

Trenton, the capitol, is on the west side of the state. People get nervous when he visits Atlantic City.


(I know, low hanging fruit... I like the guy, but he does have a problem)

 

[blackhawk]

When governors are required to meet a specific weight and physical requirements as those in the military are I will agree with this until then this is just silly.

Yet he is in that position. And there aren't any physical requirements to hold it. Or any standards of if he doesn't lose weight the military doesn't either.
