In a press conference on Wednesday afternoon, Christie tore into Republicans and Boehner for their inability to put politics aside and pass through legislation that would help the many people still dealing with the storm’s aftermath. Chris Christie Calls 'Disgusting' Boehner's Decision to Yank Sandy Funds“There’s only one group to blame,” Christie said. “The House majority, and their speaker, John Boehner.” The House response last night, he added, was “disappointing and disgusting to watch.”
What was most disgusting for christie was that the Speaker simply refused to ok the drop of billions of dollars for non-specifics. They want a bit more accountability than that, having been burned numerous times in the past by states like nj and ny. In fact, in ny, gov cuomo has come up with a very detailed list of 'specifics' as to where the money would be spent, and that is what is needed. Christie just wants the fed gov to hand over the $ on accounta he kissed the master's azz when he came to visit, and he ain't gettin' it, so he throws emotions into the mix,just like any democrap or liberal would.
“Last night, the House majority failed that most basic test of leadership and they did so with callous indifference to the suffering of the people of my state,” the governor continued, emphasizing that this is one issue that should not be caught up in political partisanship. It’s living up to the oath lawmakers took.
Actually, the house leadership showed its moxie by not simply handing over billions in aid for unspecified needs. Please do not forget that liberals like christie and democraps just likehim will easily take that $ and misappropriate it for non hurricane related issues, and this is what the Speaker would not allow. Tough for nj and christie but when you go to the buffet table, you get what is there not necessarily whatcha want.
New Jersey governor says his constituents didn't receive Sandy aid because of a "political game."
Yes, the game is called 'accountability'.....
“Shame on Congress,” Christie scolded. “All I can tell you is this was the speaker’s decision,” Christie said. “His alone.”
Thaz right fat boy, play the blame game....
This is, I think, enormously damaging to the House GOP. It's one of their own, or at least another Republican. And Christie came across as very credible, he was at his no-b.s., regular-guy best. The Sandy failure will resonate and hurt the Republicans going forward. -Michael Tomasky
Mr. Tomasky: chris christie is a rino, not a true republican. His no-bs, regular guy fascade is simply that, a fascade. christie will kiss anyone's butt if he thinks it will make him look better. The one place you will always be able to find christie is at the buffet table or the federal disbursement office. I mean hey, since he is so in love with spring-stein, why doesn't he have his 'boss' simply sing like a lark for donations and rebuild the jersey coast with that. Oh yeah, don't forget to draw up a list of detailed 'hurricane-related' damage repair programs that the federal give-away will be applied to, rather than your supplemental budget requests and party coffers..
Uh Chris, ya listenin'?? Get that drumstick outta yer mouth fatso and start acting like you know what the hay your doin' instead of just beggin' the man for money.
