New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie rejects Sen. Ted Cruz's (R-TX) memory of the Hurricane Sandy relief bill. Cruz insisted recently that the Sandy bill, created in hopes of helping the victims affected by the storm that hammered New Jersey in 2012, was filled with unnecessary pork spending that had nothing to do with relief efforts. How dare Cruz spew that narrative while standing in Texas shelters and demanding aid on live TV, Christie responded on CNN Wednesday.

Christie is probably sitting on a beach with his family somewhere that he had closed off to the public. It’s good to be the king.
Neither are worth listening to. You got a fatass and a creeper and all I hear is noise.
Yeah, anyone attacking Ted Cruz deserves a hearing, right? If Nancy Pelosi or Hillary Clinton started attacking Cruz we should at least hear them out. Or Nicolas Maduro.
I know Cruz is a conservative. I know Christie isn’t. Case closed.
Millions going to some fishery or fish farming program in Alaska is NOT for SANDY HOOK.
Cruz was right. Christie ended up, like a donut, with a empty hole in his head.
I’ll take Cruz over Christie any day of the week.
Hey fat boy, shut up.
Lyn’ Ted. Need we say more about this opportunistic liar? Okay, I will.
This is the NYT version of why the Hurrucane Sandy Bill wasnt a porkster

Christie has the pork.
2 million to fix a roof on the Smithsonian.
150 million for fisheries
A new car for the inspector general.
10 billion to the transportation administration
4 million for repairs to the Kennedy space center
3 million for Plum Island animal disease center.
150 million to clean up Alaska shoreline.
13 billion on future flood relief not related to Sandy.
That’s pork.
As much as some of you hate Cruz, you’re letting your hypocrisy show.
Why FOX had this clown on in the first place is a mystery. My guess is the Murdocks did it to make Republicans look like @$$es and damage Guadagno by reminding people of his odious presence.
Christie reminds me of s slick talking sleazeball shyster.
I don’t care what these politicians say, a bill should be about ONE thing and one thing only. They use these bills s a political weapon. I remember years ago (don’t ask me exactly when but I think it was when Bush 2 was in office, probably running for reelection) there was a bill for help for Veterans. Before the bill got to a vote, the dimocrats had stuffed it full of all kinds of ridiculous pork that they knew the republicans would not vote for. When it came up for vote and the republicans had no choice but vote against it at that time, the dimocrats were SCREAMING all over the news that republicans hated the veterans and didn’t want to help them and they were to blame for veterans not getting help. Pretty obvious the dimocrats were using it as a political weapon and didn’t give a damn about doing their jobs for the American people. One item per bill will solve this.
Why would Senator Cruz back down? It's an important distinction to make at this time.
Christie is an ass and a trouble maker. A bully and a fraud.
Absolutely.
Bingo on that one. The merge of FR and the DNC is here. Re.8nds me of Chavez getting one hundred percent of the vote. Christie is super corrupt. He wouldn’t make the unions stand down so those Alabama elections could help people. Christie is a porker, I guess no one dare question king Christie.
