Now.....let’s see what Christie is made of, folks. He claims everything he does is for the good of New Jersey. Let’s see if Governor Christie appoints someone for the good of the nation or......he worships at the traitor feet of of love partner, POTUS, Barack Hussein (Muslim Bortherhood Thug) Obama. I’m willing to bet, Christie goes to satisfy “criminal” Obama!!! Politics above the nation.....that’s Christie!!!

The late unlamented Lautenberg was a socialist, abortionist, and gun-control freak. He was first elected to the Senate in 1982, and spent only two years not in the Senate from that time until his death.

He was, in very many ways, part of the problem, much like Ted Kennedy and Bobby Byrd.

My comment on the death of Lautenberg follows:

[Gay State Conservative]

The “ADA” (a filthy Communist organization that “rates” members of Congress) rated him,in 2011,at 90%...100% being a perfect Communist by their reckoning.Dirty Harry got a rating of 95% from them for that same year.I say let the worms gag on that piece of filth.

Lautenberg:

"The Tea Party Republicans in Washington claim they’re concerned about the budget balance, but it’s a disguise! It’s not true! It’s a lie! That’s not what they want. They want — they want other people not to be able to have their own opinions. They don’t deserve the freedoms that are in the Constitution! But we’ll give them to them anyway."

One of the most hateful bastards to ever hold public office.

Good riddance.

[Oratam]

Out of the depths I cry to You, O Lord; Lord, hear my voice.
Let Your ears be attentive to my voice in supplication.
If You, O Lord, mark iniquities, Lord, who can stand?
But with You is forgiveness, that You may be revered.
I trust in the Lord; my soul trusts in His word.
My soul waits for the Lord more than sentinels wait for the dawn.
More than sentinels wait for the dawn, let Israel wait for the Lord,
For with the Lord is kindness and with Him is plenteous redemption;
And He will redeem Israel from all their iniquities.

Rest in peace, Senator. Condolences to your family. You had been on the ballot ever since I turned voting age!

One Question....have you ever seen a Democrat Governor appoint a Republican or conservatiive when a Pubbie passes on? Answer...never!!! we got a chance to pickup two “R” Senators right now....in NJ and MA. However.....I doubt it!!! Christie will satisfy Obama, not his country!!! I sincerely hope I am dead wrong!!!

[AuH2ORepublican]

I just realized who would be the perfect Senate appointment for Christie: Rabbi Schmuley Boteach. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbi_Shmuley_Boteach Added bonus: Boteach is very good friends with Cory Booker, and the two have worked together on a few things, so perhaps Booker will forgo running in the special election if it’s against Boteach.

[mellow velo]

Even if only temporary, Christie should appoint a Republican (preferably a Conservative, but let's be real, this is NJ - remember how Christine Todd Whitman was supposed to be a Conservative?)

It won't make up for the way Lautenberg made it to the Senate on his 2nd go-round -- Toricelli -- or the other Senatorial elections that were stolen -- Franken, et al -- but it'd be a small consolation to this resident of the Garden State.

Now we know why Obama walked the boardwalk with RINO Christy last week ... they were cutting a deal on Lautenberg's replacement

Sen. Frank Lautenberg always reminded me of a Brontosaurus — the 80-foot lizard that had a fat body, stumpy legs, a long tail, and a giraffe-like neck. The Bronto was a rather passive creature that spent its days munching on plants and being dinner for carnivores like the T-rex. For all its massive size and bulk, the Bronto was blessed with the brain of a walnut. A Bronto could be disemboweled by a predator T-rex and it took the creatures brain 15 minutes to know it was dead.

Why Lautenberg came out of retirement to replace “Torch” Torricelli is a puzzle. His second career in the Senate was marked by ill health and the associated problems of old age. He was also responsible for horrible votes that still impact the country in many ways. He won't be missed. Maybe Christie will do better with the appointment, but it's hard to pick a replacement as bad as Frank Lautenberg.

We are currently in a struggle to keep America from falling into the grips of a left-wing ideology that will impact freedom for every future generation.. Frank Lautenberg was the enemy in every sense of the word.

And please don’t start with the “it’s common decency” yammering.
