A repost from over a month ago. Very pertinent now. He's a bully to teachers when he should be showing respect to them.

Look at the big grin on his wife's face. Disgusting.

Christie's temper tantrum toward a teacher

I went to listen to him speak. I stood in the front of the crowd that was standing towards the back. I know he caught sight of me. He stared at me a few times during his speech. I left right as his speech was over to position myself right at the door of the bus. He came out, shaking everyone's hands as he was getting on the bus. I asked him my question, expecting him to ignore me but he suddenly turned and went off.

I asked him: "Why do you portray our schools as failure factories?" His reply: "Because they are!" He said: "I am tired of you people. What do you want?"

I told him I want money for my students. He fought back with the amount that he has spent on education. My response was along the lines of the fact his amount was not actually an increase from the previous years, given the rate of inflation and other factors. ...

The crowd started arguing with me. He screamed at me to just do my job. The crowd cheered for him. I just looked at them and told them: "Hey, this is my life. I had to do this." I tried to follow him to Atlantic City to continue the conversation but the roads were blocked by police when I got there.

Here is the sign the teacher was holding. Note the message that NJ was ranked 3rd in the nation in school quality. Yet there was the governor screaming at a teacher as his wife smiled/smirked.

11. Missed that one.

Thx for the reminder. He's really rude.

[politicman]

2. Christie is finished

I firmly believe that Christie is finished.

When these staffers are brought up on criminal charges (possibly even negligent homicide if any deaths can be tied to the lane closures), then these staffers wont try and cover for him anymore, they will all become snitches

3. And don't forget the time he reamed out a veteran and called him an idiot.

9. I did forget that. Thanks for the article.

Did you read the first comment from another veteran, blaming the veteran for interrupting Christie? People defend him constantly.

4. k&r

The Democrats who supported this tub of suck should be ashamed.

[spooky3]

5. He seems to behave the worst when the critic is CORRECT.

[lonestarnot]

6. And those nostrils in a constant state of flare.

Reptile.

7. And...he attacked teachers in front of a room full of students.

Said teachers used students like drug mules.

Gov. Christie attacks teachers' unions in front of a roomful of students.

A day ahead of school budget elections statewide, Gov. Chris Christie today escalated his war of words with the state teachers' union, accusing union representatives of "using the students like drug mules" to carry information about whether their parents planned to vote.

Christie cited what he called a "mandatory" homework assignment instructing children in the Monroe Township School District to interview their parents about whether and why they would vote on Tuesday.

"These are the typical kind of scare tactics that they involve themselves in," Christie said about the 200,000-member New Jersey Education Association, which has been critical of his proposed $820 million cut in school aid. "Scaring students in the classroom, scaring parents with the notes home in the bookbags, and the mandatory 'Project Democracy Homework' asking your parents about what they're going to do in the school board election, and reporting back to your teachers union representatives, using the students like drug mules to carry information back to the classroom, is reprehensible."

8. I didn't forget, and I never will!

10. his wife always has that smile plastered to her face

is it a republican thing ?

no wonder they always attack Dem women for looking angry, upset etc when in reality it's just a normal look for any normal person. nobody has a smile plastered to their face every fucking moment .

[tofuandbeer]

12. Yup. It reminded me of so many before. That "we're above you because we have money" smile.

[stevenleser]

13. I'll never forget that. s.O.B. Is getting his Karmic reward now. Nt

[lpbk2713]

14. Christie's chickens have come home to roost.

Some times I really love karma.


I won't shed one tear for this asshole.

[Ikonoklast]

20. Just recently spotted relentlessly moving toward Trenton, New Jersey.

Bullyboy, when you fuck up this badly the chickens coming home are huuuuuuge.

[hibbing]

15. bully

Hopefully this latest will knock him down a few pegs.

Peace

16. The conservatives hate the little people

They hate any one that disagrees with them, they hate union members, they hate minorities, they hate the poor, they hate providing health care insurance to any one that isn't well off.

[DeSwiss]

17. K&R

[jsr]

18. People who voted for the lying thug should go stick their heads in the toilet

[Jakes Progress]

19. Thank you for reminding people.

This kind of thing is why he is a hero to republicans and some democrats (those of the reagan loving persuasion).

Just think how it would have been if our president - the one we campaigned for and elected - would have publicly rebuked christie when he did this. Then he would have deserved all the good things I told groups of teachers about him in 2004. Fooled me once.

K&R

21. I'm so disgusted that he was elected despite that

and similar incidents. Nevermind the fact that he wasted 25 million on an unnecessary special election to increase his chances. He needs to be impeached. Good riddance!
