Ann Coulter is still on suicide watch because this guy isn’t running..what a buffoon he is. The Occupy Wall Street hippie freaks have NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING in common with the tea party. No one in the tea party ever took a crap on a cop car or got arrested or were endorsed by the Communist Party and the Nazi Party..hey Christie, buy a clue!

This is not complicated stuff...the Tea Party folks are opposed to government bailouts of anyone; the One World Socialists (OWS) are demanding theirs.

What a pathetically lame-brained ignorant answer.

And Christie is supposedly one of the “smart” politicians.

“What they’re saying is ‘The government’s not working for me anymore, the government is not being fair, the government is not helping me the way that they should,’”

And the response should be, “Anyone who is waiting for the government to make them happy, healthy or wealthy will die bitter, sick and poor.”

But Christie’s response is, “Because you look down at what’s happening in Washington, D.C., it should disgust all of us,”

What a butt-wipe! No wonder the establishment GOP wanted him to run.

Christie needs to go schedule a meeting with David Horowitz so he can learn who these people are. If he changes his tune afterward, ok. If not, he needs to be shunned for being the RINO of the century.

Many great conservative talkers suffer from one problem. F.O.R.C.C.

Fear. Of. Real. Constitutional. Conservatism.

Such punditry and elitetry are stuffed with themselves and have a FORCC in them.

They depufferate under threat of a RCC getting into office, like a delicate souffle deflates when poked too early.

No, you leftist oaf. What they're saying is "we want the gov't to control the means of production." And "give us more free stuff." And "Jewish bankers control the world." And "Che for President!" And "from each according to his ability....."

The only conservative thing Christie has ever done was to make a couple of great YouTube videos near the beginning of his term, attacking the teachers union.

But as far as I’ve heard, that was just words. What has he done? His actual behavior is that of a typical New Jersey RINO, much like his predecessor of the same name, Christie Whitman.

What an absolutely asinine statement. This is one befuddled guy in many respects.

I was never a fan of New Jersey governor Chris Christie and my immediate reaction to his remarks about the OWS mobs was one of disgust. However, Christie does shift the focus of the mob's alleged anger from 'the rich' (meaning Republicans) to 'the government'. Now, I think Christie's attempt to portray 'government' as the solution to our economic problems - that they caused - is wrong. I also find any comparison to the TEA party and the OWS mobs inane, so I'm still no fan of Chris Christie. Still, it's obvious that the OWS mobs are manufactured by leftist-connected entities (unions, Soros) to (a) deflect criticism about the economy from where it rightly lies: Obama's socialist economic policies...to 'the rich' and, (b) agitate against capitalism in the hope of spurring some sort of 'revolution' against the U.S. economic system.

I believe this will fail but not before there is much violence and damage done to persons and property. Even so, most Americans don't really want to live under socialism/communism and the OWS mobs will find their werlcome wearing thin, soon. All the media pimping for the 'cause' (destruction of the U.S., economy - replaced with...what?) won't be able to sustain this quixotic attempt to fulfill the goals of the Marxist America-haters like old George Soros (who made 7 billion last year. Where's the protest against that 'rich guy'?)

Simply put: the OWS mobs have nothing but diffused anger and vague calls for 'the rich' (never defined) to be (a) robbed of their wealth by government and/or, (b) criminalized and jailed for being rich when others are not. That is not a sustainable cause and it will eventually fail to accomplish anything worthwhile for anyone. I'm disappointed that Chris Christie is finding reasons to sympathize with these people. I'm now very relieved that the rotund governor decided not to run for the Republican presidential nomination. That he endorsed Romney is no surprise and his comments on the OWS mobs are proof of his big-government mentality. Too bad.
