Chris Christie tells hurricane Sandy protestor to "Sit down and shut up."

[Archae]

Obviously, Christie can't handle hecklers or protestors, like Obama can.

1. Who would want that in our White House?

[Plucketeer]

20. Tea Partiers

that's who.

[Dustlawyer]

21. I don't think that they like him either, he once worked with Obama and said something nice

about him.

[Plucketeer]

22. Tea Partiers love charlatans

they could love Christie, I believe.

[Dustlawyer]

24. You are probably right. I am sure they love him being a dick to the Hurricane Sandy protestor.

26. Tea partiers want someone as hateful as Christie but someone much dumber and more racist

Christie is a huge racist, keeping Sandy funds from people based on race, but not big enough for them

[femmocrat]

2. Chris Hayes had that man on tonight.

He was protesting about Sandy money that Christie hasn't released to the communities. He seemed like a very concerned citizen, a former councilman who helped in the post-Sandy cleanup.

3. Good for him.

[randys1]

27. christie has withheld money based on two things, if you are a minority, fuck you and if you DONT

financially support Christie, fuck you

He is a punk who cant fight his own battles so has to have bodyguards do it for him

[LiberalElite]

4. I think Christie needs

a flash mob to show up and tell HIM to sit down and shut up!

5. Christie eats this stuff up

I wouldn't be surprised if this protester was a plant. While it won't sell in the US as a whole, the NJ voting population seems to love it.

People are a lot more crude in this part of the country, and the rest of us are used to it.

6. didn't he tell a teacher that a while back?

[Fred Sanders]

8. And a hero nurse, shipped her off to Maine when she would not sit down and shut up. Chickenshit.

[SummerSnow]

25. this is what he said to a teacher....

He also said:

“I am tired of you people. What do you want?”

7. A bullying turd.

[tomm2thumbs]

9. Christie is proving every day he is not presidential material -- not even close

He thinks he's hot shit on a silver platter but really he is cold crap on a paper plate.

and looks it

[3catwoman3]

11. Thank you for the best...

...laugh I have had in several days.

[tomm2thumbs]

14. ur welcome -- if the shoe fits

or rather, 'if the poo fits...'

(collective groan)

[passiveporcupine]

10. Compare his reaction here to how Obama would have responded.

I'm so proud of my President.

[3catwoman3]

12. What a crass...

...boor he is. Are those his consiglieri flanking him?

[Archae]

13. That's Vito and Bruno.

His goons...I mean guards.

[Mkap]

15. It's a jersey thing

with mafia like bodyguards
"you's want us to break his legs boss?"

16. I'm A New Jersey Disaster Case Worker In The Sandy Recovery (For the last 18 Months)

Since Sandy he has used public tax dollars to effectively 'campaign' for himself as he ramps up for his bid to become president. Exploiting Sandy survivors, for political gains. No doubt, there has been some sincerity on his part, but when it comes to these type of efforts one should always be judged by outcomes and not blame it on the Federal government - the state disaster aid program has been a disaster onto itself for Sandy Survivors.

17. Chris Christie is a coarse, no-class individual. It goes without saying. But what disturbs me more

about that clip is those people in the background applauding and hooting their approval of his bullying.

And I have to say this, because it's what came to mind...it's that same mentality that listens to the schlock currently being shoveled up by our Ministry of Truth about Vladimir Putin, calling him a lunatic and worse. Being too weak-willed to do their own research and evaluate what he says on its merits, or lack thereof.

Both groups, lacking powers of discrimination, apparently. Like sheep...Baaaaaaa.


**My apologies to DUers who think this is off topic. Maybe so; but it's early in the morning, and I'm old!! Give me a pass. Thanks.

28. Chris Christie is a coarse, no-class individual.

Those are his good points. I don't care if someone has a potty mouth and their tastes are simple or whatever. But, he is a bully and he is just a bit smarter than the average RWer. He has appeal to people who like it when somene tells it like it is (even if their version is wrong) and who aren't afraid to be beligerant. I am not really fond of bombastic people, but I can see how other people respond to that, they are tired of milk toast.

I hope he ends up losing his political career. Maybe he can get a job on hate radio.

18. Juvenile

What an ass.

[drynberg]

19. Christie is definately a bully, plus a friggin' LIAR!
