These days, coincidences in the political world are very rare. So, it is curious that the news of Chris Christie's "bridgegate" seems to have emerged at just the right time to give the MSM an excuse (as if they needed one) to chase something other than the revelations in Bob Gates' book. Does anyone know how the incriminating email(s) became public? Who was the source of the leak? THE NSA?
The timing is suspicious, this is the kind of thing the Dan Rathers of the world use in October surprises...
Traffic jams are serious business.
This is more important that Obama’s deceitful war blunders, especially once Hillary’s name came up.
Could be.
Tin foil alert? Maybe.
...and you didn’t link the book?
For shame.
“Does anyone know how the incriminating email(s) became public?”
According to the WSJ the NJ Legislature subpoenaed the emails during an investigation.
No, the Democrats.
At least we know Christie didn’t have the mayor killed and left in Fort Marcy Park.
Is there really a face under that?
Sure didn’t take the LMSM very long, Guess Christie didn’t look liberal enough to them.
Still won’t ever vote for Christie.

Yep. And what a coinkydink - last week a straw poll indicated Christie would beat Hillary if they ran against each other in 2016.

All i can add is the deceitful MSNBC was going after Christie over this issue for sometime. Probably a month. What changed was the emails and the story that ran about them. MSNBC was already attacking Christie without much proof as far back as October. I know this because I saw clips online weeks ago.
They want Hillary or a Obama third term. Don’t want any republican stopping that unless they switch teams. Those who are the farthest left like the MSNBC crew were upset over Christie easily winning re-election. I hate Christie too, but not the same way or for the same reasons as the cracked up leftists at MSNBC. These guys are Marxist.
Three card monty, and you're following the wrong card.
Bob Gates' book is nothing. It can easily be written off as having been penned by a disgruntled ex-employee.
When was the last time, though, that you heard a negative Obamacare story.
There was major momentum, before Christmas, and the word "repeal" was even being tossed around.
Now?
Nothing.
Gates' book is the diversion. One of many.
LOL, yeah right. One closed a bridge, the other is destroying the world.
Identical.
All, thanks for the info as to how all of this came down. So I am gathering that MSNBC was talking about this some time ago, some Democrat in the legislature started an investigation and the emails were released. Now, the question is, what did MSNBC know, when and who told them? I don’t we’ll ever know the answers here but it’s all very interesting.
Yes, I know we have distractions of distractions now and a lapdog media that will run with any excuse to not do what, in an ideal world, they should be doing.
Thanks.
