Can Christie Escape?
 
Scurry for the hills or Much Ado About nothing....

And yes I got stuck in one of these delays that very week when heading to RI and stupidly taking the bridge.

If I were a political cartoonist, I could have a field day with this. Image of him in overalls "working traffic cones" would be a start.

Much ado about nothing. He will get out of this unscathed.

Sounds like something that Francis G. Underwood would mastermind.

I tend to agree. Unless people can prove he said to do it...which is not going to happen.

Yeah, he's not that stupid. He knows his name is on the 2016 ballot for the GOP. Why would he risk that just to "punish" some mayor that didn't back him in his bid for re-election, especially one he couldn't have lost, barring no pictures of him f*cking a goat surface. He fired the DCOS that sent the email and it will be curious to hear her side of the story, if it ever surfaces.

Christie "I don't know nothin'...Not his fault;)...:eek:I almost believe him..

["I had no knowledge or involvement in this issue, in its planning or its execution," he said of the emerging political crisis during a press conference that stretched nearly two hours. "I am stunned by the abject stupidity that was shown here."

It's funny that he says he couldn't sleep for the past 2 nights but found out 8:30 yesterday morning, immediately after his workout.

All on Nixon's B-day

I KNOW NOTHING!!!!

Another image for big: Christie as the piano player in a bordello saying he only works there, and doesn't know what the girls in the upstairs rooms are doing.

One could have said the same thing about Nixon and the Watergate break-in. He was in no danger of not being reelected.

His problem is, if Christine really didn't know anything about it then he's an astoundingly incompetent manager, who has no control over his staff.

If he did know, then he's a criminal. Either way, stick a fork in 2016; it's done for him. Not that he had a shot in hell of being the candidate anyway.

I was really hoping we could at least get to the primaries before the smokescreens and mirrors got deployed.

Fatty Camp: "Benghazi! Benghazi! Benghazi!"

Hilldawg Camp: "GWB! GWB! GWB!"

Repeat. ad nauseum.

Meanwhile we keep circling the drain. Lovely.

I have never believed in this whole line of thinking. I know the political world is different, but you don't hire/appoint people to only micromanage them to death, unless you want to fail miserably.
I fully believe his now ex-DCOS (and a great many of them too) would attempt to pull of a stunt of this nature. Power is a very potent stimulant.

Why would he have no shot in hell of being the candidate?

Hope you're well.:{>:

GWB is a fly on an elephants ass compared to Benghazi.

What is it ? It's a toll booth. No, how much is it wiseass ?
 
Massachusetts Governor Duval Patrick tried a similar move a couple of years ago on Easter. Ordered all the toll booths to have skeleton crews on the busiest Sunday of the year. This was to "persuade everyone to join the EZpass program" Funny part was he got stuck in the 5 hour delay and was pissed off. Then they tried to blame the toll collectors for calling in sick, which wasn't any. Though I can't believe anyone showed knowing what was facing them. Mothers Day and Easter are really heavy traffic days with sunday drivers everywhere.
The public was furious ! they got even madder when they blamed the collectors. Public wasn't buying that line of **** for a second. The memo that ordered every interchange down to minimum, no exceptions, no OT to be called, came to light. They were exposed. LOL that the Governor got stuck in the middle of it. (the gridlock, that is)

Yes I agree, though I'm referring to how the media is able to reduce all of these lapses of judgement into " *fill in the fuc1< up*-Gate ". And that is what the debate gets limited to. Instead of discussing issues the debate turns into a gossip-fest full of sound bites about irrelevant water under the bridge. Which is precisely the way they want it - hence, my signature line from Noam Chomsky.

I was hoping we could have gone a little longer before it devolved into that. No dice.

on the scandal scale, this would have to rank pretty low, wouldn't it? and pretty high on the 'stupid' scale, as well as ineptitude.
