Chris Christy is such a POS

Last edited Sat Feb 18, 2012, 05:07 PM - Edit history (1)

The man who unilaterally killed the much needed railroad tunnel between NY and NJ. The man who verbally abuses the legislature for not giving him everything he wants. Now can't make a stand on Gay Marriage and says he wants the "voters to decide" with a straight face. What a fucking coward.
Of course if he signs the bill he is done in National GOP politics. And if he vetoes it he is done in NJ. But obviously he has no conscience nor conviction. Just a obnoxious bully.

And I don't think he is "small minded", this was a deliberate political calculation. He will not state whether he is fo or against GM. He just hid from the issue. He is a bull and and a coward. And he uses his size to intimidate people in person.
He is denying a group of people their basic civil rights and you are concerned that I called him fat, which he is. nice priorities.

3. Right on, edhopper. Anybody who intimidates people with his size is fair game.

It looks like Bob McDonald is screwed in Virginia, too. If he signs that hideous wand rape bill or that idiotic personhood bill his VP dream is over. He'd be poison in the general.

Just the sight and sound of the blowhard make me want to

P.S. And it's not his weight--I have weight issues myself and am more than sympathetic. It's his character and personality than are puke inducing.

I apologize if my reference to his obesity has offended.
Because that is not what this post is about. It is about what a worthless, cowardly piece of shit he is. And how he doesn't care about equal rights in his State.
Making this about anything else is a divergence from the real issue. We get enough of that from the Repukes.

hulking figure with a scowl who looks like he wants to hit people (particularly women) backhanded if they confront him and his offensive policies. He becomes the caricature of Ralph Cramden yelling "To the MOON, Alice!" while brandishing his fist.

Perhaps it is just unfortunate that he has the weight, the Jersey accent and the menacing scowl all at once. But that is his "package." He exploits it.

I've known thin people who were repulsive and creepy. It was their "presentation," too, just as Christy is his.

Wished Jersey could have come up with someone else to run against that bully but also wished the same for us in PA as well.

However, people were afraid to go up against Corzine and his $$$.

There is still no frontrunner that has emerged for 2013. IMO they need to work on that NOW so that after the November election we have a candidate that can raise $$ and travel throughout the state and get his or her name out there. There's about 5 interested right now, and all have their ups and downs.

because now this large pile of crap has vetoed the rights of his citizens.
And the media portrays it as a bold move to consolidate his bona fides in the GOP.
We live in a truly fucked up country.
