Yes, apparently what it means is that if you’re dumb enough to get $6B into debt you’ll throw $31M for a Hail Mary.
And you forgot to lecture multiple people who insulted Christie’s weight.

But I also don’t believe that the grandmothers and grandfathers of this country want to see these programs destroyed for their grandchildren. I think they care about the future of this country and the future of their grandchildren."
Governor, If you honestly wanted to strengthen these programs, rather than use them as a political pinata until they are destroyed, you would argue to eliminate the salary cap on contributions to the programs.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie ® will propose broad changes
to Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare in a speech in…
…doesn’t matter where.
Once you’ve touched that third rail?
(Didja’ feel that little ~zap!~ Chris?)
Your nascent campaign starts swirling the drain.

“And of course, Social Security is a pension.”
This.
So obvious yet it is something not one reporter will bring up let alone shoot down (they haven’t since GOP brought up the idea years ago) so as to not upset their GOP buddy.

And, of course, means testing makes it much easier to use as a wedge issue, which Republicans have been trying to do for two decades now.
The lack of means testing has been the thing that made the program unassailable for decades. Right up until the day came when a huge portion of the nation’s wealth was controlled by a tiny handful of people who are so obscenely rich that a Social Security check would represent a rounding error in their daily interest earnings on the tiny fraction of their assets held as cash and who hate Social Security because it is a barrier to their ability to keep the serfs on the manor.

There are probably people who’d like Pralines and Dick ice cream. More like Used Motor Oil and Rat Turds.

All the parts where the government is supposed to leave us alone unless it is selectively enforcing a rather inconsistent 2000-yr-old moral code established for an agrarian society, as interpreted by 21st century evangelical Christians willfully ignorant of biology and other fields of science, and under the direction of those same Christians.

I think that could be covered by taking every Bingo entry and appending “AND JEEEEEESUS” to it.
Tough Talking Tough Guy Talks Tough About Social Security Proposing Much Needed Tough Assfucking.
Yeah, a tiny handful of Villager has-beens and the Third Way Quislings will be swooning. Truly, a brilliant political move.

I sincerely hope Crispy Critter and the rest of the Republican Komedy Klown Kar scream their Social Security-cutting wet dreams at the top of their lungs during the next Presidential election season. It’s a real winner, guys! Trust me! Would I lie to you, honey? (H/T: Annie Lennox)

People like Christie dish it out on a regular basis going after the poor, the working class, pensioners and those that actually struggle to put food on the table. He better be prepared to take as much as he gives in this regard.
As for his weight, he’s already allowed others to make him the butt of those jokes. So all’s fair in love and war…and it’s fair game as far as I can tell…or he would have lectured us on it like he does peevishly on everything else he believes in.
