Shoring up foreign policy credentials for a possible VP slot?

Didn’t anyone tell the undisciplined, obese, overeating, blowhard oinker that he won’t be able to get pork chops and hog jowls in Israel? He’ll head home in two days.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) landed in Israel Sunday for a four-day trip intended to “strengthen New Jersey’s economic and diplomatic relationships with foreign nations,”

Why would a governor have to visit a foreign nation on the job?

What a joke!

A free vacation on the taxpayers.

Good thing they didn’t give away the West Bank, or he wouldn’t fit.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) landed in Israel Sunday for a four-day trip intended to “strengthen New Jersey’s economic and diplomatic relationships with foreign nations, stuff his fat face with as much Shakshuka and Cholent as he can in 72 hours,” his office announced.

There. Fixed it.

Did 4 people have to leave Israel to make room for this cow???

When Romney loving RINO Christie goes camping, the bears hide THIER food in the trees. ;>)

Did he take the adams apple on sticks with him?

Common sense would dictate that they don't try to pair up a couple of white-bread northeastern RINOs and hope for an electoral windfall north of the Mason-Dixon line. This election will transcend any general election pandering we've ever seen - putting a fat white guy on the bottom of the ticket won't generate much excitement in San Antonio. Willard's gonna need a one-legged, albino lesbian of Ugandan/Salvadoran descent to get the 'centrist' traction that RINO Corporate seems to be aiming for. I guess they figure that us conservative folks are going to have to wait for the next bus. Only I think the bus stop will have burned down by then.

I don’t think that this is a sight-seeing tour. I think that Chris Christie is a possible running mate for whoever wins the GOP nomination. I just hope he doesn’t suffer any health problems on the trail if he’s chosen.

How did he get there? On a whaler? /s

[Happy Rain]

They will love him there—he looks like a dreidel.

Don't think Christie is a reasonable VP choice in the less than optimal scenario of Romney getting the presidential nomination. Both are or were Northeastern governors, both are from the "moderate" wing of the party. Not much balance there, neither geographical nor ideological.

Probably Christie's trip to Israel is geared more to the Jewish vote in NJ next year, where he did well - for a Republican - in his 2009 election.

“New Jersey’s diplomatic relationships with foreign nations?”

Wonder if Ann went along?

Christie also intends on travelling to Jordan where he will meet with King Abdullah II, before returning to New Jersey on Easter Sunday.
