I detest that Gregory hack big time

According to him the sabotage meted out to the citizens of Fort Lee and surrounding regions is the rough and tumble of New Jersey politics.

At least he asked verb noun and 9/11 a decent question.

Why are they so scared of these investigations?

Fuck you verb, noun and 9/11

One thing with ReTHUGs they put out that talking point and stick with it - why did she wait so long - ah fuck that.

when they ask 'why did she wait so long' answer 'she feared for her life?'

There is as clear as pattern with the spewing of ReTHUG talking points on a daily basis as there is with the bully in chief demanding favors for development projects before delivering basic services to citizens.

she was squeezing out of them by bucking Christie when the entire Republican machine would have buried her!!!!!

What could have gone wrong???? She just lacks grit.

It's called obfuscation - do not address her accusations - destroy her (but they are not bullies).

Imo, anyone who goes nose to nose with these thugs should fear for his/her life.

She has kids and I know that I would be worried in her position...that poor woman. She is being hammered for being a human being and trying to protect herself and her city from these predators in the Christie administration.

I hope Mika comes to her senses and gets down off her high horse. I am ashamed of her. She should be defending Zimmer...

it leaked into surrounding towns. Lots of people backed up were from other towns, One of them could have had a heart attack and been stuck in their car.

And quite possibly it was in the minds of Christie staff - What they did was more than an attack on a town, no matter what they meant to do.

believe a show with the history and past ethics and integrity of Meet the Press would employ an insolent and obvious party hack like Gregory.

Cristie came to power on the strength of his racketeering prosecutions that netted NJ elected officials.

If anyone understands that "New Jersey" isn't a defense, it should be those within the Cristie administration.
