...at Jersey Shore caught on video
In an angry moment caught on video, Gov. Chris Christie let loose on an identified critic on the Seaside Heights boardwalk Thursday night gesturing with one hand as he held an ice cream cone in the other.
According to the website TMZ.com, which obtained the video, Christie was in Seaside Heights with his family on Thursday when a passerby made a "snide" remark about his education policy.
Christie, who relishes confrontation with protestors<sic> and hostile questioners at town halls and rallies, did not shy away from the challenge.
"Youre a real big shot," Christie, yelled as he walked toward the man. "Youre a real big shot shooting your mouth off."
The man shouted back "Nah, just take care of the teachers."
As the man was leaving, Christie said "keep walking away. Really good. Keep walking," and then was gently guided away by a man in his entourage, who put his hand on Christies shoulder.
