"New Jersey Governor Christie Picks Gay Black Man, Asian For Top Court"
CBS Philly.com ^ | January 23, 2012

"TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie moved to diversify the state’s all-white Supreme Court on Monday by proposing two firsts: the nominations of an openly gay black man and a Korean-born law enforcer to fill two vacancies.

Christie announced the nominations at a Statehouse news conference attended by both nominees and their families. If confirmed, Bruce A. Harris would become New Jersey’s first openly gay justice, and Phillip H. Kwon would become its first Asian representative and the first person born outside the United States to be sworn in."

Hey, didn't New Jerseyites already learn with Jim McGreevey that having gay blades at the top of your government is not necessarily something you need.

This dude will be back down there at the rest stop in Virginia getting arrested sure as shootin'.

These actions reveal the true meaning of the terms “moderate Republican.” When are conservatives going to start educating people regarding the true referent for the term “moderate?” “Moderate” almost always refers to a person who supports liberal
initiatives.

I am sooo glad Christie is no longer our favorite Conservative anymore because I haven’t liked or trusted that fat POS from day 1 and have really wanted to say so. What the hell has he EVER done for Conservatism anyways? NOTHING!

If these two weren't the best qualified for the job then Christie is no better than the unprincipled crypto racist political pukes in the democrat party.

Worse, like them he's playing politics with our country's future.

And he thinks NEWT is an embarrassment to the party. Christie is becoming New Jersey’s answer to Scott Brown.

Ann will have a hissie fit when she sees our comments.

Obviously this little tidbit completes the puzzle and shows the Coulter to Gay Guys to this Gay Guy to Christie links.

Too many Republicans have gotten themselves and the party burned bad over the last decade for any of us to tolerate this sort of blatant favoritism toward their gay buddies.

Senator Craig, Mark Foley, Ken Mehlman, ..... a cast of thousands including top level staffers in the House of Representatives, friends of Dennis Hastert, etc.

The American public tolerates homosexuals messing around in the Democrat party, but not the Republican party.

Good thing we got a chance to nip this cabal in the bud before we ended up with a Senator Eagleton problem at the last minute.
