Christie had nothing to do with closing that highway.....he was at McDonald's, clogging his own arteries at the time.

Normally I'd trust CBS News, but I think in this case, they got it wrong.
I just to say almost everybody supports our troops although I think from time to time a lot of people disagree with the policies. Not many, if any American wants see a member of our Armed Services injured or killed.

He certainly would not have closed the bridge if he was on one side and there was an "all you can eat" buffet on the other.

I think more people than you care to admit don't think about it one iota.

You are probably correct. I am sure that not enough people think about how poorly injured soldiers are treated by the government when they get back.

He is obviously lying. He said that he just learned about it the other day after finishing his morning work out.

Just the Start
A civil lawsuit has been filed against Christie, the State of New Jersey, et. al.
for the delays that were deliberately rigged on the GW Bridge.

wow, just look at the exuberance with which CNN is going after this Christie deal. this is what they tweeted this afternoon.
"Our political unit is poring over more than a thousand pages of Christie docs. We'll send out updates as we have them using #ChristieDocs"
How can these 'investigative journalists' even look at themselves in the mirror? I mean they've gone full-on into Palin mode with this, yet they fall asleep and bury and play down much bigger stuff every day of the week.

Same deal with that light-weight fool Brian William at NBC.
That lackey is the type you hire to smile and pour coffee.
At NBC, the most qualified, intelligent newsman is.....Jimmy Fallon.
the brains of the network are on at midnight.

- Dumb idea #1. Ask an elected official from the other party to support your candidate.
- Dumb idea #2. When said elected official refuses (like you didn't see that coming) close down three lanes of the busiest bridge in the world to punish him.
- Dumb idea #3. You think this will never be found out and there will be no repercussions.
- Conclusion. Whoever came up with this idea is the dumbest guy in the room.
- But no one had the guts to tell said dumbest guy in the room that this was a dumb idea.
- Conclusion. They are all afraid of the dumbest guy in the room.
- Now who could they be afraid to tell that his idea was dumb? Possibly the guy with a reputation as a bully?

I have to agree with Tom. The more I look at Christie...the more presidential he seems to me.

You can bet that Chris Christie worries more about ice cream cones than he does traffic cones, for sure.
