I have fallen through the rabbit hole. I'm liking something Chris Christie said!
Anyone else watching Last Word? Christie is defending his appointment of a Muslim American and calling the "Sharia-phobia pushers" ignorant and crazy. Saying he was inappropriately detained post 9-11 (and that a lot of people were)

Am I hearing things?

4. Christie is an asshole, he's not batshit crazy.
He's a mean bully but he isn't a complete whackjob like many of the others in his party.

6. As divided as we are... the GOP is truly split
the kids really have scared the living daylights out of the establishment, in a way that nobody has done since the John Birch society. They are starting to realize that the M80 they gave them was really a nuke and somebody was silly enough to give them the codes too.

7. Christie is a lot of things....dumb is not one of them. He's plain spoken in a real way....
...not the fake Palin/Bauchman way. I disagree with most of what he says, buts it's refreshing to hear someone offer real talk and not just repackage talking points.

13. Just saw the speech
Quite refreshing after the usual garbage from the likes of Bachmann and Caine.
