Christie's bully act getting old
Two years ago, when Chris Christie announced he was running for governor, he dismissed questions about his days as the Godzilla freeholder — when he breathed fire on almost every issue, insulted Morris County colleagues and needlessly stomped on countless toes. Tossed out after one term, Christie assured us he had learned his lesson. He was a different man.

“Who wouldn’t be?” he said. “If you’re not a different person 12 years later than when I began my last political campaign, you’ve got problems.” He added: “I’m more mature.”

Nearly a year after he was elected, we wonder: Where’s the maturity?

The latest display of contempt for anyone who disagrees with him was on display at a town hall meeting Friday in Parsippany.

The clip appears on YouTube under the title “Christie rips apart rude questioner,” a headline written, no doubt, by a Christie disciple.

1. The man is such a stereotype of the RWingnut/repuke/tbagger...
I feel sorry for those NJers who did not vote for him. The rest got what they deserved by voting for such a total ass.

His current postures should come as no surprise for anyone who made sure to be an informed voter.

His attitude toward teachers is despicable...

2. IN this case, the person that Christie was berating was a fellow Republican
who he forced on stage at the hands of a NJ State Trooper, and after attacking him, had him ejected from the building. This man is a disgrace to NJ, and I can assure you, I didn't vote for him.

3. Nor did I but a LOT of mouth-breathing Pukes came out of the woodwork to vote for him
and we here in NJ suffer for it.
