New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie slammed the National Rifle Association’s latest ad in which they accuse President Barack Obama of hypocrisy for sending his children to a school where they are protected by armed guards. Christie called the ad “reprehensible” and said that the NRA should not be “dragging people’s children” into the gun control debate.

“I think any of us who are public figures, you see that kind of ad and you cringe,” Christie said on Thursday at a news conference in Trenton. “I’m a father who is a public figure, who has four children and my children had no choice realistically in what I decided to do with my career and what affect that has had on their lives.”
“Don’t be dragging people’s children into this,” he added. “It’s wrong and I think it demeans them and it makes them less of a valid trusted source of information on the real issues that confront this debate.”
“Are the president’s kids more important than yours?” the narrator in the NRA advertisement asks. “Then why is he skeptical about putting armed security in our schools when his kids are protected by armed guards at their school?”
“Mr. Obama demands the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes, but he’s just another elitist hypocrite when it comes to a fair share of security,” the controversial ad concludes.
I don't care why they have protection against crazies, but my kids are just as good (and probably will contribute more good to the world) as theirs.
FU fatso! If I had to save fat boys kids, Obomas kids, or my kids from a speeding train - I'd save MY kids without even giving it a seconds thought.
Politicians are ALL a-holes. Seriously. They live high on the welfare hog, yet somehow they think they should be treated better than the rest of us who feed their sorry arses (and feeding fat boy is costing us a fortune!).
Alas...the inevitable has taken place.
It is a very rare and previously little known affliction called “cerebral lardification” in which whatever active brain cells were left in the victim have been completely taken over by worthless fat cells.
Federal Mandates and Entitlements must be implemented to prevent such tragedies in the future.
Oh.... I guess I need one of these: /s
LOL. Exactly. Well put!
Correct...
This is actually useful if you can believe that. Now we have a white man telling the nation that the “elite” is above them. I would loop this day after day in the “minority” areas. Gun control is a white liberal idee fixee, and we know why.
I was never fooled for a millisecond by this fat POS, just as I was NEVER fooled for a second by Joe Manchin(sp) and the likes of him
To bad that that people dont just ask me first, and I will set anybody straight on any particular candidate/person.
LOL! If they messed up Penn they must REALLY suck.
I guess he realizes his days are running out as Gov...up for reelection and will have a problem. He is of the mind set we can reach over the aisle and drag over committed libs while talking a moderate gop line. Good luck with that.
Obama and his propaganda machine is immoral. That is the issue here, not the NRA. It is the equal of his pointing out before he was annointed the first time that his sole flaw was his big ears. Yeah, look here at my ears while I keep my communist feelings and anti american past hidden. Now it is look here at these kids, don’t they look nice? All the while, he is destroying the constitution.
Christie does have a future though. A track can be built around him for the summer olympics....two lays will be an olympic event.
Unless, of course, he runs on the Dim ticket.
Infected is more like it.
“Christie called the ad “reprehensible” and said that the NRA should not be “dragging people’s children” into the gun control debate. “
This man is incredibly stupid or more likely, a democrat. What the hell does he think the anti-gunners have been doing from day one?
“Don’t be dragging people’s children into this,”
What the Heck??
Everyone is some person’s child!!!
(But some children are bigger than others.)
Haven’t seen pictures, however he has not been the same since he and Obama met after Sandy.
Hey, Cupcake, yeah you the big Crispy Creme from Jersey. You can forget ever running for national office in the GOP. You might as well go ahead and join up with all your liberal buds over there in the RAT communist party. There are indications that your lover boy, odongo, probably authorized the black ops hit in CT to start with, and then turned around and used kids as a prop during his big anti-gun speech. Yep, that’s YOUR boy, Chrispie......Mr. pure evil.
Go eat another pastrami sandwich and leave such important matters and issues such as governance to real men. I hear Curves is running a special this month just for liberal panty-wastes just like you.
The hypocrisy is obvious, your god-hero His Imperial Majesty Barack I wants his spawn to be protected by armed guards (a reasonable desire, actually) but would deny such protection to the children of mere peons.
I never liked him from the first time I heard and saw him. I don’t know how people could even go for Christie for dog catcher.
He just secured a spot as the GOP frontrunner.
He will be the nominee.
and again, we will be told to hold our noses because it is better than the alternative.
we are lost.
