None of us on this site wanted to see Christie as president. That's done now. He's a big dead fish on the national stage. Whether he knew what these dickheads were up to or not, it's over. Good.
But the hypocritical leftists are nowhere near happy. They are going to try to milk this for all its worth. They don't distinguish between conservatives and GOPe or RINOs or all this infighting. Those conservatives piling on Christie now are adding fuel to the fire that is going to be used by the leftists to clobber all Republicans, conservative or not, in the coming elections.
The Democrats are traditionally the party of big government jerkwads screwing the little people - the commuters, the people going to work every day, the taxpayers. But they are going to use this incident to turn the tables, as they always do, with the help of the leftwing media, like Rachel Maddow. And people around here are eager to nod their heads in agreement.
If information comes out that Christie knew about this, I'd support not only removal but prosecution. But for now, I'm taking him at his word. He's a big government clown, but he has no history as a liar.
The move for conservatives at this point is to use this incident to highlight the media disparity in coverage of scandals. One conservative website pointed out that in the first 24 hours, this stupid bridge story received 17 times the national network news coverage that the IRS story has over the last six months! One story is about the executive branch politicizing one of the most powerful arms of government and using it as a weapon to advance their political party and aims, while the other story is about closing two lanes on a bridge at rush hour.
I don't expect the liberal media to maintain any perspective, but it would be nice if the people on this website would.
Christie brought this on himself.
