"The Christie administration announced a new way of reporting school districts spending on Friday that dramatically boosted the official price tag for educating each New Jersey child last year to an average of $17,836.
That figure is $4,239 higher than the average under the previous method of calculating per-pupil costs."
He did use a car........to drive him 100 yards from where the helicopter landed to the stands where he sat and watched his kid play, and then back........
Well, he looks like he couldn't WALK that far....must be one them HARD WORKING Republicans....
If Obama wanted to go to his daughter's baseball game it would cost the American tax payers millions of dollars for 5 innings, that's just the way it is.
and you'd probably trip over your tongue, you'd be so outraged.

Riiiiiiight. Which is why Christie is trying to politicize it.
I'm getting to the point where I would be ok with the government spending a few billions on educating all of the retarded Democrats, it's for the greater good of the country.
Obviously you do not know that using the term 'retarded' is a slur that is now like using n****r or s**c or k**e or something along those lines- could get you into trouble in professional situations-

According to whom, some retarded Democrat who's butt hurt that I offended them?
[quote=phillies2011;19402567]Chris Christie who has been spending his time as governor of new jersey by making drastic cuts to education and basically all public services while claiming the state is broke, recently took a helicopter ride to attend his son's H.S. baseball game.
Christie used the recently purchased 12.5 million dollar helicopter to fly from the capital to his son's baseball game in Bergen County NJ where he landed on a football field adjacent to the baseball field. he then took a ride in a car to move from the football field about 100 yards to the baseball stands. He watched about 6 innings before the game was then delayed for him to depart again.
Was he rushing off to official important business? No he was having a dinner with people who were interested in having him run for president.
Christie has shown what fiscal conservatives mean when they say we all need to tighten our belts in these tough economic times... all the regular people are going to get the shaft while people like him continue to live lavishly.
I suppose you haven't seen the thread about how the liberal limousine people have increased the number of limos the government owns now. Is there a chance that that monstrous growth has a reason. Yep, I am trying to deflect your post but only because it happens from the left to me all the time.
I guess you could say each is not great, but going quiveringly mad at $100k while $12 million goes flying off without a peep seems a bit hypocritical.
Ohmigod, did that helicopter crash so it has to be replaced? I hadn't heard that part yet.
