Chris Christy: statesman

http://digbysblog.blogspot.com/2012/07/chris-christy-statesman.html?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter

(snip)

In a scene that could have come from outtakes of MTV’s popular reality series “Jersey Shore,” New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) was caught by cameras bellowing and storming up the boardwalk in the popular vacation town Seaside Heights, NJ after a man in the crowd insulted him. The footage, shot with a phone camera and distributed by TMZ, shows Christie shouting angrily until a member of his entourage leads him away.

The video initially showed Christie standing athwart the flow of the crowd, yelling at a man off-camera.

“You’re a real big-shot!” shouted the governor, clutching an ice cream cone, “You’re a real big-shot, shooting your mouth off!”


“Nah, just take care of the teachers,” the man said before walking away.

And by the way, this was shot with a phone and it doesn't look like there were very many people around, so this wasn't for the cameras. He really is like this.

Real VP material there (heavy sarcasm). But then, we almost had Sara Barracuda.

He single-handedly would bring on WWIII with his low class mouth.

in every respect.

I have an Uncle who reminds me of Christie....he embarrasses the crap out of me. I won't be seen in public with him anymore.
He just has to put on a show and be obnoxious. Christie is the same way...it's how he rolls...he's a freakin' "attention whore".

What the hell is wrong with people that these foul, loudmouth jerks keep getting elected?

and "Big-Mouth" was yelling at the guy "Just keep walking away...keep walking!"
Yeah, you're real tough guy Chris...with Security protecting you 24/7. (I'll bet they will have stories to tell!)
I wonder, with all his anger, rage and obvious health issues, if one of these days he's just going to pop his cork, keel over and croak.

and there's NO WAY to administer it from behind with THIS guy. (you have to be able to reach around the person and lock your hands)
If he's choking...well...good luck Mr. Christie.

Sounds like it had something to do with teachers, since the man subsequently said "just take care of the teachers." Too bad we don't see what so enraged Christie to begin with. I'll bet if we heard how mild a statement it originally was, we'd get an even stronger impression that Christie is a raging psycho who needs psychiatric hospitalization.

And a few other words that can't be used here.

How much are plane tickets out there anyway?

he would most likely have a stroke with all of his anger and pent-up rage.
The guy is a bellowing, chicken-shit bully.

I have little reason to back down from him. I fear the world he wants to create FAR more than standing toe to toe with the likes of him.
