Chris Christie: Rand Paul ‘dangerous’
Politico ^ | 26 Jul 2013 | HADAS GOLD

Posted on 07/26/2013 7:11:18 AM PDT by mandaladon

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is ripping libertarians — including Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) — for challenging government surveillance programs and failing to understand the dangers of terrorism. “This strain of libertarianism that’s going through parties right now and making big headlines I think is a very dangerous thought,” the New Jersey GOP governor said on Thursday at a Republican governors forum in Aspen, Colo. “You can name any number of people and (Paul is) one of them.”

Christie, a potential 2016 candidate who appeared on the panel with Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, said lawmakers who are questioning government surveillance programs should hear from the families affected by the Sept. 11 attacks.

“These esoteric, intellectual debates — I want them to come to New Jersey and sit across from the widows and the orphans and have that conversation. And they won’t, because that’s a much tougher conversation to have,” Christie said. “The next attack that comes, that kills thousands of Americans as a result, people are going to be looking back on the people having this intellectual debate and wondering whether they put …” Christie said before trailing off. Paul’s office shot back on Friday, saying Christie may need a “new dictionary.”

“President Obama has done nothing to change the policies of the Bush administration in the war on terrorism. And I mean practically nothing,” he said. “And you know why? Cause they work.”..............Obama hasn't done anything that works

So a few mutts in Boston who no doubt spent a good amount of time talking and texting and the NSA was probably intercepting Anthony Weiner’s texts instead. I’m sorry beltway paycheck Republicans the establishment in this country is a joke, wannabe Stalinists mated with Monty Python.

That’s what the average chair thinks of that Rino pig fata$$ retard Chris Christie. His back end is dangerous because it has that fat hulk and enormously fat head attached.

Just go be a Democrat Christie. Uh wait, you already are!

This is what Christie should say:

If I’m elected President I will do nothing to change the policies of the Obama administration because I’m just a RINO, who loves Obama.

Funny, I’ve never heard Rand Paul telling us anyone is dangerous.

“They” always tell us who they fear.

Christi is the one who is dangerous. He is a leftist who believes in fiscal responsibility. Just because you can raise taxes to pay for something doesn’t mean it should be bought.

I don’t think Rand Paul has said anything about throwing old people and widows to the wolves.

Rand Paul is a breath of fresh air.

There’s such a thing as going too far to make ourselves secuure. I don’t know exactly where to draw the line but I think our administration’s concept of adequate security takes away too mch of our freedom and privacy.

There actually are things worse than having a building or two blown up.

Exactly! For all the money they spend on domestic spying, they could spend almost nothing by securing the border and fixing or at least implementing the VISA and E-Verify programs.

If they fixed the border and spied on our enemies, we could STOP listening in on my phone calls to my doctor!
