What if it's that left wing thing the Dems do when they pretend to be a conservative or a moderate (sometimes even a Republican), yet rally around every liberal agenda item they can and kowtow to every Democrat who winks at them?

See it all the time...

Regardless, it's always interesting how Democrat thieves want to steal our money against our will, yet get all indignant and call it hypocrisy when we ask for some of it back.

Second, he becomes the poster child for bleating dependency, save us, mommy, over Sandy and goes WAY over the top in loving up to the president. As well as his attacks on Congress to pay him. Now. Again, OK, I get it. He's not a Mitt fan. However, there is NO getting around the reality that, under pressure, the enormity of Sandy, his principles are 'help us! Our state is so dysfunctional, we need everyone else to pay for it!'

Now, he comes out against guns lambasting the NRA over using the Obama's kids to make the point about guns, safety, and our rights calling it reprehensible.

That's it. I actively oppose you now, Mr. Governor. Barack Obama is using 20 dead kids to push his agenda, an agenda the NRA is pointing out that has NOTHING to do with safety and everything to do with more government power, something we've now seen the good governor VERY much believes in. Barack Obama is surrounding himself with kids in his photo ops to push his agenda. Barack Obama is reading little Johnny and little Susies hand written letters pleading for him, the great won, to do something for the people, for the children, to push his agenda. I find that reprehensible. If the president has declared kids are political props, so be it. Don't ####ing cry about it when you make the rules and someone beats your ass with them.

If Barack Obama was focusing on the problem, that would be one thing. He is not. If his solutions would help, that would be one thing. They won't. In the mean time, the NRA is saying as fact that the ONLY thing that could have helped at Sandy hook is NOT the endless laws already on the books but, a good guy with a gun. Like the ones that protect, properly so, the children of the President of the United States of America. It is proper to ask why our kids aren't important enough to have at least some of that protection. It is proper to ask why our kids are not to have ANY of that protection.

Gov. Chris Christie has spent all his political capital, as afar as I am concerned, as well as his benefit of the doubt. This man is EXACTLY the type that got us into this mess; more government, more government and then some more government to help us with all the government we've got in the way.

Sorry for your luck, New Jersey. Your Governor will likely be running for president before long. I suggest he just change his political affiliation now, to reflect his positions, thereby helping GOP'ers to avoid making yet another mistake.

GOP'er; you see what Christie is about. Clearly. It's called history. Best not to forget it so as to not repeat it.

Chris Christie, (D)



Plus, he's a fatass.

That's a bad thing, politically, I heard.

"We love him until he dares say something that hasn't been approved by the Party, then he's a RINO." That's why the GOP is in the bombed-out state it is. March in lockstep or we'll turn on you.

Or...people who actually think for themselves simply see what Christie has been doing of late and base their view accordingly. I consider the heaping of 60 billion federal taxpayer dollars on to that region to be disgusting.

I know...a novel - radical even - concept for anyone that gets all their talking points from DailyKos.

And do you know what's really funny... If the Republicans had said things like "You know, that Christie is a smart guy - maybe we should rethink gun control" we could have laughed about what mindless following sheep they all are.




It's great when you can mock at your opposition no matter what they do.

Like Gingrich, Powell, Scarborough, Specter, the Tea Party...

Political expediency, not wanting to be called racist, trying to pander to minorities…

Democrats know exactly who they are and, through that, own the narrative. Republicans struggle to define themselves not in light of who they are, but in light of how democrats are defining them.

And if we were liberals, we would love him no matter what he said just as long as he had that "D" after his name.

Pisses you all off when conservatives turn on those in the party that turn on them first.
If Christy wants to be a bammy poo covered tool like Omalley, then he should grow the stones to come right out and say he is swtiching parties.

Isn't that how it's supposed to work? Shouldn't the republican party - just like the democrat party - have core ideals; and if a candidate that ran on those ideals strays from those ideals - shouldn't they be called out and criticized for that? Democrats have no problem throwing defectors under the bus.
