You all hear about him pounding on unions, but the unions he pounds on, are public unions, especially our wasteful schools. Small state, alot of 6 figure earning "administrators", retiring from one job and taking another, then double dipping on salary on pension, all on the taxpayer dime.

I respect him for trying to fight it honestly.
Jersey politics is separate from nationals my friend. Honest men do not last.
I can write a long 2 or 3 posts on the crap Corzine and Mc Greevey pulled in office.
I don't mind him either, frankly. The guy is all about the budget and with none of those social conservatism strings attached. And you're right about New Jersey schools; the pay and benefits are ridiculous. Those unions haven't gone quietly either, kicking and screaming at every cut. Honestly, the pay is still above the national average (better than in PA at least).

Just having a bit of fun with that helicopter incident.
