If he wins the GOP nomination, he should run on restoring dignity to the office of president.

Paul LePage could be his running mate.

Fat Boy’s act is getting old. The problem is that he picks the wrong people to bully – and the press plays right along, calling them “hecklers.” Mr Loud Mouth has picked on women, teachers, nurses, and now this guy – someone who actually lost his home to Sandy. This disgusting fraud should never have been re-elected. I voted against him twice – and feel completely vindicated. What a sickening buffoon to have as governor.

Great post.
I have to admit that I didn’t know there were people who are still, after all this time, out of their homes. How disgraceful that they can’t get the help that they need while their governor travels the country stumping for the ideologues in his party.
Of course, if Governor Christie had handled this situation with even an attempt at decency it wouldn’t have been so widely reported, along with the heckler’s legitimate grievances. The more we learn about Christie, the more he appears unfit for office, not just because of his loudmouth, fact-denying, power-abusing, bullying habits, but because of his extremely piss poor ability to govern.

Thin-skinned blowhard bullying another constituent? A constituent who’s actually doing the hard, behind-the-scenes work (as opposed to Christie’s conspicuous congratulatory commercials about himself). Bad optics, doughnut boy.

It never pays to underestimate the ability of Republicans to convince themselves that they love the things they used to hate when general election day rolls around, but in the primary, that shit ain’t going to play well in the states outside the Northeast.

Oh, yeah, he is going to be a great president! NOT!

Wouldn’t you love to see him try his schtick out on some Dan Rather-like pit bull in the White House press room?

Mr Keady this will shut the “mouth that roared” :smile:

TRENTON — New Jersey
business leaders and policy advocates said Wednesday that drastic
changes must be made in the wake of a new report that shows the state
once against has the worst tax climate in the country for businesses.

The State Business Tax Climate Index,
released annually by Washington D.C. think tank the Tax Foundation,
ranks the Garden State dead last among the 50 states for the second
straight year — just below neighboring New York.

It’s the third time in four years that New Jersey has finished at the bottom. In 2013, the state ranked 49th, while New York was last.

Gov. Chris Christie and state lawmakers have long bemoaned New
Jersey’s high taxes, with many Republicans arguing that they are driving
residents away from the state and keeping businesses from setting up
shop here.

Spokesmen for Christie’s office did not return a message seeking comment Wednesday.

I’d like to think antics like this ruin Christie’s chances to be president but there are a number of people that see nothing wrong with his behavior and actually get off on it. I mean, look at the commenter on the thread where the officer was yelling at the motorist, threatening him with a ticket for saying “God bless you”. That poster seemed quite excited watching it unfold. I’m kinda surprised he hasn’t shown up here defending the governor and calling the guy that stood up to Christie a “wise ass punk”.

Hey, Governor, how about that funneling of state pension funds to your crony campaign contributors? Care to “oink in” on that?

Make no mistake, a pig can lose weight, but he’s still a pig. Has nothing to do with corpulence.

I sure hope he runs for president. I would love to see him attacking the national press and completely imploding never having another chance to govern. Too much to hope for?

Absolutely, positively NOT. With a pit-bull prison warden, perhaps. But the only way he should get near the White House is if he got a job as janitor.

USA Today describes Christy’s behavior as getting tough with a Heckler. The mediocrity of the mainstream press has no bounds.

Christie and his pals will be all over this like, well Christie at Dunkin. It gives him a great excuse to change the subject and try to push through another(?) round of tax cuts, ignoring he has a massive budget shortfall and the state debt is likely to be downgraded again in the near future…

Notice how this “think tank” (read: people who mine data until it says what they want it to say), only rates the states on the level of taxes, not an actual comparison of job growth, new business creation or businesses that expanded their current operations. Hmmm, perhaps there isn’t a correlation between them? I’m sure, without reading the article, California is in the bottom 10 on this list too, but does anyone doubt the level of job growth/creation and economic health California has over say Texas?

mystified at what it will take - but still certain that there will be a tipping point where serious & intense investigatory search lamps swing around and genuinely examine the ‘Christie body of work’… and when it happens, it will be the end of the line for the blow hard bully. When it really looks like the tide has turned against Christie - watch for things to get bad for him at an exponential rate - because every individual that he has screwed (but has been bullied into keeping their mouth shut) will share their story - along with names, dates and dollar amounts.
