Christie picks the wrong day to complain about ‘lawlessness’

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) still hopes to get his struggling presidential campaign back on track, and he’s even come up with a new pitch he seems excited about: the scandal-plagued governor wants to blame President Obama for street crimes.
“Whether it is New York, Chicago or San Francisco, it is happening everywhere,” Christie said on MSNBC yesterday. “The president has encouraged this lawlessness.”
As the GOP candidate sees it, White House executive orders are illegal (they’re not), and because criminals are so attuned to current events, they see the president’s lax attitudes on enforcing laws (which doesn’t exist) and decide to break laws themselves.

Christie bridge scandal investigation ripples lead to airline resignations
It’s hard to imagine anyone taking such nonsense seriously, but just as importantly, Christie has atrocious timing. While the Republican governor complains about “lawlessness,” one of his aides has already pleaded guilty to a charge in Christie’s “Bridgegate” scandal, and two more of his top staffers are facing multiple criminal charges. By late yesterday, it seems a fourth member of Christie’s team may soon join the indictment club.

Welcome to DU.
My good friend Rudy says, it's not about polls, it's about polarity !
I really did it up good this time ,didn't I ?
You know Rudy never mentioned a thing called reverse polarity ! I'll have to look that one up !
Yes, thats a good question !
Presently Chris Christie is down there at about 2 % according to the different poll results. However, I ruled him down to somewhere between 1 and 1.2 % . At some point between now and days ahead prior to the CNN debate on the 16 th. , the polls will show what gate Christie will or will not be coming out of !
It wouldn't be unrealistic to see him fall to zero or below !
At 1.2 there or there a bouts it will certainly be entertaining to see Christie go nuclear ,so he says from down below at the kiddie tables !
Yes, on the bird, the bird is very real and very much alive and well. The bird was flown in from Texas with it's keeper for a photo shoot. Actually I hired the bird after the photo shoot ,so the bird is now part of my staff. As you may have noticed in todays news we are soaring in the polls as expected !
Great entertainment ahead folks, stay tuned !
Yes, d legendary1 , as I have stated here before, I know this is a democratic site and I know I may not be of a position to swing your allegiance in my direction as the primary race moves forward. That having been said, what I can do is encourage you all to stay tuned because great entertainment for all is what is in the very small print in the form of an attachment add on to the pledge I recently signed just last week !
The republican party as a whole agrees with me that it is and has been in the stops ,it lacks qualities that are appealing ,it's ways are old and out dated , it is as the saying goes ,politically incorrect as it is, beating the dead horse.
That having been said, I managed to hornswoggle in an entertainment attachment onto the pledge that gives me the full right and privilege to bring in all and any entertainment action/activities . What it translates to is this, total Trump freedom of expression without exception because it is all in the greater interest of entertainment . That makes the pledge a non binging worthless piece of paper .
Frankly folks, the grand old party is obsolete and those in control know it. It's like I said, I said look, everybody knows a tea party is a gathering on the green at the ninth hole, usually a meeting of the business minds, a place where deals are struck. !
But for you all,it is a side effect ,like the bad stuff in medicines.
To that point having been agreed upon, I signed, he signed the entertainment add on attachment and there you have a pledge uniformly signed sealed and delivered worthless as it is.
And so folks the show must go on and the best is yet to fallow !
Stay tuned !
is Donald gonna yell "YOU'RE FIRED!" at the eagle because it was not properly obsequious?????
No, absolutely not, that would be un-American. Great birds such as the eagle are never fired ,they simply leave when the time is right. However the bird of question is under contract.
