I'm watching Chris Christie on M$NBComcast

[malaise]

This man is not well - he is taking deep breaths mid-sentence

[Dennis Donovan]

1. Probably diabetic and on the verge of congestive heart failure...

[malaise]

2. I think it's the latter n/t

[Dennis Donovan]

3. I don't care what anyone says, you CANNOT be THAT heavy and still healthy...

[malaise]

7. I agree

What's more when he needed a limo to save him from walking 100yards he has health problems. Remember he also had to head to the hospital recently

12. Some NFL linemen would disagree.

[Dennis Donovan]

13. I cannot think of ONE who is middle-aged and is shaped like this:

[Logical]

15. OK, adding "middle aged" is different.

[emulatorloo]

17. Those folks work out and have muscle mass and some cardiovascular conditiong

Not so sure Christie can say the same.

[Logical]

18. I agree 100%!

[no_hypocrisy]

4. I think he has asthma.

[CatWoman]

6. I think he's just not used to being up this early on a Sunday

:

[malaise]

8. He also has breathing problems hence his trip to the hospital

recently.

[Auntie Bush]

5. I can't quite visualize him as president and representing the USA in foreign countries.

I wouldn't be proud of him.

[DinahMoeHum]

9. The stress in getting NJ thru this hurricane does not help matters either.

n/t

[TheCowsCameHome]

10. He's a category 3 windbag

[City Lights]

11. LOL!

:thumbsup:

[66 dmhlt]

19. Now THAT is funny! (And stolen)

[malaise]

24. DUzy

:rofl:

[vi5]

14. I hate the man, but as a NJ resident

I can't say he handled this situation (the hurricane) poorly. He was pretty well engaged the entire time and was as clear and concise in his communications as any Governer could be expected to be. This doesn't make him some kind of hero, but considering how much of a clown this guy is in every other situation, I've got no complaints. We'll see how he handles the clean up and everything involved in that though. I have the feeling that the real test will be once it's time to pay the bills and make sure everything is done right.

[Logical]

20. Good point. If he does stuff right he should be praised. Only fair.

[tabbycat31]

22. I could have written your post

I think he's trying to make up for December's snowstorm.

[vi5]

23. Definitely. But whatever it takes....

As long as it was handled correctly and people are safe then whatever it took to get to this point I'm o.k. with.

We'll see what the coming days and weeks bring.

[edhopper]

16. And why

is he wearing a jacket that says "Chris Christie, Governor"

[Dennis Donovan]

21. ...because he sometimes forgets?

:D

[JustAnotherGen]

25. I'm given the Governor an A +

Watching him on our 24 hour news channel for nj. Not my choice for Gov but when he does something right I'm giving him credit.

[vi5]

26. Exactly...

My feeling is the same (as I stated above). Don't like the man. Don't agree with his policies. But I can't honestly say that Corzine or any Democratic governer would have handled this situation any differently or any better. Credit where it's due.

Although as I also said above, when it comes time for clean up and time to help out with the bills on clean up, hopefully he continues to acquit himself nicely. That's the area that worries me.

[watercolors]

27. I would also, he was genuinely concerned for the welfare

of his citizens of NJ.
