Assemblyman John Wisniewski told the Daily News that he is convinced that 'laws were broken,' and said Christie could possibly be impeached if it turns out he had knowledge of the political payback scheme. Hours earlier, State Assembly Speaker-elect Vincent Prieto announced he planned to subpoena more emails and documents in the investigation.

The New Jersey assemblyman leading the Gov. Chris Christie Bridgegate probe says he’s convinced “laws were broken.”

“We had public employees use public resources for a political purpose,” Assemblyman John Wisniewski told the Daily News Saturday.

“They closed the lanes of the George Washington Bridge to exact some kind of retribution on the town of Fort Lee or the mayor of Fort Lee.

Preferential treatment ?

Fort Lee was entirely jammed up.

Would living like that every day be “normal” ?

The lanes WERE opened again - and remain open - because without them traffic backs up all over Fort Lee.

double standards go both ways. with Democrats, the double standard is giving Obama a pass while piling on Christie. With a lot of freepers, the double standard is saying, “stop talking about Christie, talk about Obama,” as if we’re supposed to ignore Republican scandals.
