NY Times: Christie Knew About GW Bridge Lane Closings
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 1-31-2014 | Jim Hoft

He knew. The liberal New York Times reported today that Governor Chris Christie knew about the lane closings on the George Washington Bridge when they were happening. The New York Times reported:

The former Port Authority official who personally oversaw the lane closings on the George Washington Bridge in the scandal now swirling around Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey said on Friday that the governor knew about the lane closings when they were happening.

In a letter released by his lawyer, the official, David Wildstein, a high school friend of Mr. Christie’s who was appointed with the governor’s blessing at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which controls the bridge, described the order to close the lanes as “the Christie administration’s order” and said “evidence exists as well tying Mr. Christie to having knowledge of the lane closures, during the period when the lanes were closed, contrary to what the governor stated publicly in a two-hour press conference” three weeks ago.

Christie denied knowledge of the scandal, “I had no knowledge of this.”

No wonder no RINO’s or GOP Governors came to his defense.
They knew Christie knew. Bye Bye Christie!

0bama "If you like your plan, you can keep your plan. If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. Period."

0bama knew millions could not keep their health insurance

0bama knew about something affecting the health, welfare, and lives of millions of people, and lied.

Non-story.

Chris Christie knew about a few thousand people being inconvenienced on a bridge for a few hours and lied about it.

Huge story for a month.

Sorry. I hate Christie but I aint playing their game.

If only the media would focus as seriously on Hillary, Obama and Benghazi where Americans actually died.

It must be true if the N.Y. Times says so.

I think Hillary goes with DeVal Patrick or Cory Booker as VP to continue the 99% D lock on minority voters with a “wink wink” about Hillary’s age and health.

However until I see the Chicago Mob clearly on board with the Clinton Crime Family, I’m not ready to believe it’s Hillary 2016.

"Destroying the GOP brand..."? Oh, that ship sailed so long ago, it's circumnavigated the globe several times by now.
