Enter into a rehab, and all is forgiven. BTW, Corzine, show us the receipts. It’s not that we don’t trust you or anything. You are a politician, and unless you hit your head real hard, I don’t think being a politician has changed.

I do not believe one word from this man or his pr machine.
They have lied about his injuries and are lieing now.Imagine how much pain he is in moving to the mansion.
He has a broken collarbone in two places.A broken breastpale,a shattered spleen and 12 broken ribs.He has a smashed lower spine vertibrate and a leg that has two bone compound fractures above his knee. He has a stitched up head as well.

Question is, has his driver been cited for speeding and wreckless endangerment?
This guys only sorry he got hurt and caught... like every other damned politician.
To: Voltage
What is incredibly ironic is that NJ is one of very few if not THE ONLY state that requires seat belts on their school buses. I wish all states would require them on their buses. Meanwhile, Corzine is a bozo, not only because of this accident. This could have been an example of social Darwinism had he been snuffed.........
To: nobody in particular
CBS radio news said the driver was text messaging in addition to everything else.

You are absolutely correct that Governor Corzine's outrageous order to speed is not being highlighted. He was the man in charge in that vehicle and I'll bet he was telling the driver to go even faster before the impact happened. Trying to blame those innocent motorists who happened to be on the road as his motorcade approached is outrageous. The press is also NOT making a big deal of the fact that virtually all of Governor Corzine's ribs were broken. You want to know how that happened? I'll tell you how:
I'll stake $5,000 that Governor Corzine died on the side of the Garden State Parkway and those hero troopers revived him with their quick-thinking and perhaps slightly over-enthusiastic CPR technique. This is the same reason he is offering to pay his medical bills and rehabilitation costs...he doesn't want it to surface that he died and the very men for which he holds contempt saved his billionaire life. Having four guys who each benchpress 275-lbs manually compressing your heart tends to have a negative impact on the ol' ribcage.

CBS / NBC / ABC / MSLSD / CNN is trying to make a big deal about the trooper, romantic messages he may have received, and the love-triangle in which he is allegedly involved. This is all being done to DRAW ATTENTION AWAY FROM GOVERNOR CORZINE and his specific role in the accident. Don't fall for it.

I thought it was all being done as leverage in the woman's divorce proceedings.
Corzine was just an idiot passenger not wearing a seat belt in a car that was needlessly speeding so that he could go take a photo with Imus and the Rutgers womens' basketball team.
To: Blue Jays
Do you have any proof of this, or is it just conjecture?
To: Brilliant
Thats the real crime.
Not sure about that one.....I think his real crime was wanting so very badly to get in his own facetime on Imus’ predicament.......see, the 91mph was to catch up with sharpton and the rutgers bassabaw coach.

“I understand I set a very poor example for a lot of young people, a lot of people in general,” said a teary-eyed Corzine, who was not wearing a seat belt when he was critically injured in an April 12 automobile crash on the Garden State Parkway. “I certainly hope the state will forgive me...”
Never have I read a more inane, obsequious, disquieting statement from anybody.
“He hopes the ‘state’ will forgive him!?”
Am I to take this statement as a public apology or as a plea for leniency from the almighty powers that be?

Neither one approaches the seriousness of trying to occupy the same physical space with another object at the same time.

If the crash was deemed preventable, Corzine's driver may face training or disciplinary actions.training???
Once the car was going 91 MPH, I guess the crash was not preventable. Going 91 MPH, however was a choice.

He is luckly noone was killed.

Am I the only one who caught the part where the press trailed the Governor's motorcade after this tearfully apologetic press conference and clocked them at 70 MPH in a 55 zone? What a scream.

He’s lucky he WAS the one who was injured - it could have been his aide, or one of the drivers dodging out of the way of the blue lights and siren, or one of the drivers getting dodged into.

Do you have a link? I don't see it in the CBS/AP story at the link.
70 in a 55 is much more common than 91 in a 65. Very few people drive the 55 MPH speed limit on the parts of the Turnpike and other NJ roads that have it.
To: conservative in nyc
After getting a $140 ticket in NYC Saturday (the donut eater weaved through traffic and pulled me over in the slow lane because of my Alabama plates, then lectured me about how to drive in a city...I was going 70 in a 50 and was one of the slow ones)...I makes my blood boil that Pols get away with this kind of crap.
Yes, I'm guilty.
