Just goes to show, doesn't matter if you're left or right, black or white, if you're in politics, chances are you're either corrupt or heading that way.
If it turns out that you're incorruptible, there's always some ass hat in the wings ready and willing to push you over that cliff.

Still, it's a sad state of affairs in the GOP if all they have anymore is people who wish to cause misery.

I know! Let's round up all those traitorous poiiticians and their ilk and put those FEMA camps to work.

What,, do you mean like closing national monuments and parks even though it actually costs more to keep them closed than to keep them open just to make sure that the sequester noticeably hurt the average American?

Both parties do it but only one party seems to be held accountable for it and that's a much bigger problem

Because its not like obama is criticized on every single move he makes and called every nasty name in the book, right?

The reason you hear so much about the GOP is because they let their most extreme, outrageous members speak the loudest.

Right, because Christie is one of the GoP's most extreme, outrageous members...

I didn't say that, nor did i imply it. I was talking about the GOP as a whole, not Christie.

Exactly, August. He is actually moderate, more slightly to the right, and not hardcore, bible thumping, gay hating, conservative most people are used to.
The only reason he won 2 terms in a heavy Democrat state.


I would prefer him president, he has alot more balls than Obama.

People would think twice about stepping on us, if they knew we had a CinC who would go out of his way to make your life miserable.

So you're saying he's guilty?

I am not sure what to think yet, sir.

But a few posts ago, I stated this is typical Jersey politics, and that I am desensitized.

If he did do it, then so what? He certainly proved his point.

If he didn't, which is what he says, he has fired people. then so what.

Guilty or not, it is a classic troll move , mind you, I use the GW bridge daily, I got screwed up on this personally. ( I was smart enough to leave earlier, and take the tunnel) Not everyone is as smart as me, and god forbid someone watch a traffic report. But this does no phase me much.

Jersey Politics. Down and Dirty.

I kinda like Christie, I make no secret of it. His guilt? As I can see now, I see nothing that links him directly to it.

And even if I did, I will still give him my trust in 2016. I am scared of what righty loonies will march on us from the GOP during primaries..

(edit: I personally think this is a democrat smear campaign, to kill off the most viable Republican candidate, this is a game, at our expense, either way you look at it.)
