There is a guy in Haiti named Bobby Duval who started a charity program for kids to play soccer to keep them off the streets. His goal was to get Haiti back to the World Cup. His rationale was that it was a cheaper and more efficient way to raise morale of the country: the power of getting back to the World Cup would be more important to Haiti than training 1,000 doctors or teachers.
NJ, as a state, gets crapped on all the time. Psychologically, I think many New Jerseyans are proud of her, especially now that America knows she came from NJ.
Christie made the right decision.
I completely disagree with both points. Everyone I have talked to about it has various feelings about the subject, but proud of her? No, that wasn't how I hear it. She was talented, absolutely. But proud is something you use for, say, soldiers.. firefighters... police officers.. and the like.
As for Christie making a right decision... does he even know how to do that?
>>>Houston, an East Orange native, hasn't made New Jersey her home for some time. During the last years of her marriage to Brown, they lived in the Atlanta area, and more recently she and daughter Bobbi been making her home in Los Angeles. <<<
Whitney houston caused her own death & flying the flag at half-staff for a entertainer is not warranted. Christie is just pandering for votes & he should be more concerned about his health (weight) then this bull****.
Faux outrage is always amusing to witness.
The media, politicians, those who NEED to be offended about something will milk it until the next story & then it will go away.
Who cares?
I personally have no respect for those that do not respect themselves.
