He’s permanently disqualified himself. Period. No waffling on this by saying his personal belief is one he won’t allow to affect his potential for a job. No matter what good qualities he has, this is a complete, utter show-stopper. Governor Christie’s succumbing to the politically correct spew here tells me that he is perhaps more fit to listen to Lady Gaga than to seriously contend for a larger role in his country.
I read once where over 90 percent of homosexual men have had some sort of emotional trauma during their childhood. Nobody is born gay. To believe that is to believe that God makes mistakes.
Christie is wrong on this one.
Double AMEN!
Much of NJ is absolutely beautiful, with miles of beach, rural countryside and - where I own a home - hundreds of farms dedicated to raising the country’s thoroughbred horses. The toxic dump you are referring to is the Rahway-Newark part of the state. That is where all the industry is. That’s actually a good thing.
Christie’s shown himself a creep by refusing to condemn the Ground Zero Mosque.
LLS
Someone should ask him if RINOs are “born that way,” or made that way by some kind of mental trauma.
If he defies and rejects the Catholic Church’s teachings, in what way is it still “his” church? The RCC is not a country club; it’s an organization which speaks with authority on issues of doctrine.
Christie’s voiced opinion, that “born that way” = “not sinful” is, of course, absurd.
Sociopaths and alcoholics are “born that way”, but prisons and hospitals are full of them, nonetheless.
However, it is true that the vast majority of Americans believe it too, including, apparently, a majority of Catholics. Clarity on homosexual issues is, in our day, poison for an electoral politician.
Well, I don't believe that God makes mistakes, but if YOU never run into something that seems like God's mistake TO YOUR HUMAN UNDERSTANDING, then you lead a very sheltered life.
I've been a doctor for thirty-five years, and let me assure you, a lot of the things He does are very difficult to understand.
born gay = birth defect
Wow, does this guy have a clue about Biblical Christianity? We are ALL "born that way" with a sinful nature. It's called original sin. There are "none good..not one". This is why we need a Savior. Yet we all have a choice as to whether we act on our innate sinful desires. For some the strongest temptation may be homosexual sex, for some drunkeness or pedophilia or fornication (a biblical term which includes homosexual behavior by the way). It's a shame so many who call themselves Christian have no idea what the Bible teaches.
More taxes and higher fees for people. You must be a silly libertarian.
I don’t like Ann Coulter...
Her choice in men is pretty deficient.
The last thing I want is someone thinking they can tell me how to vote because of their cult of personality.
Because babies do not come out of rectums.
yep.
I appreciate your stream of pejoratives. Strong without cussing.
She supported Mitt in 08.
That is exactly their defense - reject God as not being as intelligent as they are on any issue that interferes with their lifestyle choice.
Homosexuality, Killing unborn children, etc....
To many "born again-ers", this must rattle their sensibilities. How then, does "I'm not runnin'" Christie handle "original sin"????
OOOOooooo.....thorny to be sure!
Moreover, one simply cannot believe that "I'm not runnin'" Christie had not - a long time ago - prepared a sound and reasonable answer to just such a question.
We are born sinners so I don’t see it as a contradiction.
