Better get that checked out, Governor. It's so hard to learn anything after that kind of injury

Christie: ‘I’m going to learn from this’
By Matt Bai, Yahoo News

“I will learn things from this,” Chris Christie told me last Friday, a little more than a week after he gave the News Conference to End All News Conferences, and a few days after the cable channels covered his annual address to the legislature in Trenton as if it were Nixon waving from the helicopter. “I know I will. I don’t know exactly what it is yet that I’ll learn from it. But when I get the whole story and really try to understand what’s going on here, I know I’m going to learn things.”

...................

We were sitting in a conference room at a training center for high-tech jobs in Camden, down the street from where Christie had just sworn in a Supreme Court justice. This was his first interview since he had publicly declared himself “embarrassed and humiliated” by the disclosure that his aides had conspired to snarl traffic on the George Washington Bridge, and Christie, who fiddled with a half-eaten pack of vending-machine muffins, seemed more subdued than usual. He described his state of mind, after hearing about the incriminating e-mails from one of his closest aides, as “completely disorienting, like I got hit across the forehead with a 2×4.”

2. That might actually be true

But it was because he couldn't believe how utterly stupid they were to put it all in email in plain language. He would never do something that stupid - which is why I thought it would take someone rolling over on him to get anywhere with his part in it all.

When this story first broke, I really thought it would go nowhere - just another case of politics as usual and a Republican getting away with something that would sink a Democrat.

I am so glad to have been wrong and am watching this grow and grow and grow - and getting happier with each nail in that bully's coffin.

4. Very Sad. He was constantly deceived and lied to by evil employees.

5. That's called a clue by four

Nothing a little soul searching (hmm, does he have a soul) can't cure.

6. Here's a few gems to get you started

Don't act like a mafia boss, even if you are one.
You're a civil servant, act like one.
Contrition is a useful thing in this situation, and might even gain you some support.
Don't be a dick.
Don't crack jokes when apologies are what are needed.

And that was just off the top of my head.

7. "vending machine muffins"

Maybe a better choice of food would improve his cognitive skills.
