I'm not a Chris Christie fan (far from it) but I don't see the harm in this.
Maybe he's thinking like a parent, perhaps thinking it could benefit the kids who are being affected by this storm to have something to look forward to, something that will seem "normal" after a harrowing few days.
Halloween is a big deal to little kids and I see this as a good will gesture. I think it will make a lot of little ghosts and goblins happy.
For what it's worth, I heard about it on the radio this evening.
And I just found this for you:
Quote:
Chris Christie has been pro-actively on storm duty all day long. But New Jersey’s governor may have shocked the his Twitter followers on Monday night, when during the Superstorm Sandy at about 8:30 p.m. ET, he tweeted: “If conditions are not safe on Wednesday for Trick or Treating, I will sign an Executive Order rescheduling #Halloween.”
Younger New Jersey residents now can ride out the storm without having to worry about missing out Halloween, dressing up and consuming unhealthy amount of candy. This tweet was also not the only one sent out by Christie to reassure his younger constituents. Earlier that day, he tweeted: “For all the kids at home, there is no reason to be scared. The adults are taking care of business. #Sandy”
Why don't you guys just go to twitter yourselves, if you're that concerned? You need to be spoonfed? Jeez..
Why would he lie....especially about this?
