Thank God Politico is there to get the truth out as Christ Christie sees it.
And Chris Christie is Sgt Schultz:
“The memo from Gov. Chris Christie’s office attacking former appointee David Wildstein’s credibility landed with a thud. It was a striking and deeply personal broadside coming from a chief executive of a state, and even his allies called it a mistake,” Politico reports.
“But one important person hadn’t seen the missive ahead of time: the governor himself.”
“Christie’s aides did not run the document – which took the extraordinary step of highlighting incidents from Wildstein’s high school days – by the governor before they sent it out, according to two people familiar with the matter. Instead, someone tucked the high school lines into a daily briefing email to the governor’s supporters, and blasted it out earlier than planned. Another round of unflattering news coverage ensued.”
