He called Brown an idiot, not the military.

Yet it reinforces his attitude towards the military. While falling all over himself to honor Whitney Houston, he totally forgot the death of Lance Cpl. Osbrany Montes de Oca. His opinion of the military is clear,

Even his celebrated criminal cases has begun to fall apart. From those he has managed to distance himself.

Even Romney doesn't see him as an asset. He came off as a laughing stock in NH.
Proof please!

He did order the flags to be flown at half staff on the day of his funeral.

And your opinion of Christie is clear.

These Town halls are pretty nice when you first hear them , but there nothing but shams. Do you think he lets everybody in there , no just a select few.

Christie picks his town halls very carefully (Bush used to appear almost exclusively on military bases) and cannot handle the slightest criticism. It's one of his biggest weaknesses.

The Navy Seal is a working class citizen, no?

Christie has made a name for himself nationally by shouting down people & their opposing views in "town hall meetings". That's what he is known for. He even has the Gaul to do it in out of state town halls (see California).
At the end of the day, Christie is the GOP's muscle. He's their monkeyboy Jersey thumb breaker pet. He' their clown to be used up. As soon as it becomes politically expedient to let him swim by himself ; he's done.
His political shelf life is minute. His act is wearing thin on a state level. Do you really think Southerners; who have it ingrained in themselves to smile in your face & tear you down behind your back would elect an abrasive, in your face Yankee from Jersey? Not a chance. Christie is getting pimped & I love it.
The more he acts like this, the better.
