It is hypocrisy. And this, over a friggin lane closure. Yet on really serious issues, they could care less.

The Raw Story put it this way in a headline: “****-shaming Bridget Kelly: How she ranks among history’s greatest political sluts”

And The New York Times reports that Kelly’s friends think the report is sexist and off-base.


Yet all of these media outlets are dead silent about the Benghazi cover-up, IRS scandal, NSAGate, and said not a word when Holder investigated himself over gun walking and FaF.

Obama asks Holder to investigate Holder's investigation | The Daily Caller

Hypocrites much?
Because those are all left-leaning and choose to have selective reporting. Not to mention, all in the tank for Obama.

Yes, of course, two wrongs make a right.

The reason this is important is that it shows Christie to be a political bully, not above breaking the law for petty retribution. He's unfit to be president, and really the people of NJ should vote him out next election if they have any moral integrity.

Barlyn is suing the state of New Jersey for records that he says will prove the case’s dismissal was the product of political corruption."


Disappointing.....


It's just a little abuse of power and corruption by a politician, using his position to attack his enemies. As Obama has demonstrated time and again, the public, and particularly the media, will ignore it. Anyone that does so is unfit for office.

Perfect description of obama.

Above the law???? How exactly did CC go above the law? What are the charges?

you want petty retribution see Eric holder assigning a prominent US attorney within 24 hours of the first CC speech.

Retribution is the IRS going after political opponents.

You want a bully.. that would be the guy who refuses to negotiate across the aisle.

Unfit to be president is a perfect description of obama as he has demonstrated a lack of concern, lied numerous times and continues to lie.

He can only run twice, this isn't a NYC mayor race.

I don't fear Christie at all and hope he runs. I like him he's a moderate.

You know what Christie did.

As for Obama, you seem to think that if he did something wrong, that makes it ok for Christie to do so also. This thread is about Christie, not Obama.

The report is 300 plus pages of fantasy in a first salvo of Christie's potential criminal defense strategy.

It was written by his friend that he hired to investigate himself.

They didn't even interview Sampson and some of the other key players at the PA yet Christie indicates his integrity is impeccable. I've heard that before, politicians and their donors are always honest until we find out they're not. This investigation is missing quite a bit.
