Via Sonny Bunch, this is so achingly stupid and disingenuous that I feel like it’s an insult to the reader’s intelligence to explain why. But it’s a slow news day — that’s why HuffPo is running it, after all — so let me try. Have you ever heard someone use the word “boy” as an exclamation, to add emphasis? If you haven’t, it means one of two things. Either you’re under the age of, say, five years old or you didn’t read this post from this morning, when I used the word that way myself. Christie used it that way too when a heckler at a recent town hall shouted that New Jersey needs to fix its public schools. Fixing public schools is what Christie’s all about; that’s why he battles the teachers’ union and that’s why he helped promote “Waiting for Superman.” Boy oh boy oh boy, does he want to fix those public schools. Just one hitch: The heckler at the town hall was black. So when Christie said “boy,” Democrats pounced. Watch below at 1:55. Which explanation is more likely, do you suppose? That a modern politician would insult a black constituent by calling him “boy,” in full view of rolling cameras and a crowded church no less? Or that he meant it as an exclamation? That 74 percent approval rating isn’t going to deflate without some help, you know.
But wait. We’re not done.
At the same event, Christie referred to Democratic Speaker Sheila Oliver only by her race and gender, prompting the pastor at the church to demand an apology.
The Goodyear Blimp deserves all the ridicule he gets...from the Right and the Left.
Racist!
Christie tied a rock around his neck and then jumped into the liberal ocean. From what side does he expect to receive a life preserver? The right? The left?
Well, I hear hope floats.
Keep hoping “fat boy”.
They won’t attack him once he switches parties.
Obama’s best buddy Chris can cram it where the sun don’t shine.
He’s dead to me.
"I'se the b'y that builds the boat
And I'se the b'y that sails her
I's the b'y that catches the fish,
And takes them home to Lizer.
Or, "stay where you're to b'y, I'll come where you're at".
(BTW buddy, I've never met a Newfie I didn't like.)
He hugged and kissed Obama’s rump and now he’s “racist”
jeez
Confidential to Mister Christie.
Do try to make yourself comfy in progressive-ville, ol' former buddy; we conservatives absolutely do not want you back!
.
He's a rino.
Pork Porkie is now despised by both sides.
Congratulations to him.
So Christie used the “B” word? It’s the new “N” word.
He’s a Fat FK or something....
Crispy brings most of that stuff on himself.
Some people have to learn the hard way, you can’t make pets out of water moccasins, you are going to get bit.
The fun part is going to be watching how many times he gets bit before he learns.
Fat ass Lou Costello-look-a-like f’ing RINO deserves all the abuse he gets.
He’s pronounced himself a tenor in the crusty old rino chorus. The GOP should run him for president so they can lose again.
