Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) took another swipe Sunday at New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) in the two Republicans' growing feud over national security, slamming the governor over spending on Hurricane Sandy relief funds.
Paul told reporters outside a Nashville fundraiser that the spending priorities of Christie and Rep. Peter King (R-NY) following Hurricane Sandy diverted vital resources from national security, according to the Associated Press.
"They’re precisely the same people who are unwilling to cut the spending, and their ‘Gimme, gimme, gimme — give me all my Sandy money now,” Paul said, as quoted by the AP. “Those are the people who are bankrupting the government and not letting enough money be left over for national defense.”

a slap fight between Rand Paul and Chris Christie is the very LAST thing we need right now
“a slap fight between Rand Paul and Chris Christie is the very LAST thing we need right now”
Can’t see how.
It’s a fight between a conservative republican and a liberal democrat.

You are correct, what we really need is a good old fashioned knock them down fistfight.
Rand Paul should dare Christie to switch parties Publically and then cite all the liberal positions Krispie Kreme as evidence that he belongs in that corrupt party!!!
Some of the nervous nellies on the conservative side need to get over it and deal with real life.
Stuff decorum where the sun don't shine.

If it hastens the demise of the GOP, then fight away.
Liberal power-monger Lowell Weicker-types should be fought at every turn.
Let’s rumble.
Yes, Christie opened his big, fat mouth first. However, the back and forth just keeps national attention on that disagreement instead of focusing on the damage ZerO and the Dems are doing to this country.
Christie and Obama are on the same statist/elitist team and anything that draws attention to that is good.
I would rather have Cruz and Paul put Christie away as a serious presidential contender in an off year rather than when an election looms. Have the debate now and get it settled.
The tent is too big. Of course I don’t think there’s a tent Christie could fit in.
RINO bashes a conservative - cricket chirping
Conservative defends self against RINO bashing - hand ringing, whining, we need to stop this self destructive infighting.
That’s not a tent. Those are Christie’s pants.
“It’s a fight between a conservative republican and a liberal democrat.”
Worth sating again.
Especially when he sees Obama.

I wonder if that POS RINO Christie carries a banana in his pocket?
