Chris Christie pokes fun

cameo on SNL... and he
even managed to sneak in
a Springsteen reference

Chris Christie has a reputation as a politician who is more willing than most to laugh at himself - and he lived up to that image during a surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live last night. The governor of New Jersey played himself during the ´Weekend Update´ segment of the iconic sketch comedy show, and drew big laughs with his self-deprecating performance. The witty and good-natured act could boost his national profile and help his ambition for a run at the White House in 2016. Christie, notable for his large stature as much as his tough-talking demeanour,

What an idiot I am. I really thought this guy was cleverly playing Obama. Turns out he´s just a big doofus desperately trying to be with the "in" crowd (America-hating Springsteen a saint???). He´s about as clever as my Aunt Fannie. He needs to go ahead and switch to being a Rat and save what´s left of his credibility.

The appearance only showed that Christie is amateurish and inexperienced at such work, and that people charged with serious problems maybe such stick to those.

Chris Christie has lost all credibility. He might as well switch to being a democrat.

Christie´s biggest danger to America is his lack of understanding of Islam. Whether it is willful, honest or mendacious is impossible to say. What can be said from his public remarks is that he does not understand Islam and seriously underestimates the danger it poses to American institutions.

The charm this man appears to possess for many people has always escaped me. He seems to me nothing but a loud-mouthed, ill-mannered, publicity hound with a serious case of pathological obesity. That anyone would even consider him for higher office is something I cannot understand.

Christie was elected because he wasn´t Corzine. This time he will not be getting my vote. I called his office and let his aide have it....big time.

He´s the media darling now because he bashed Governor Romney.

Chris Christie started how many GOP pols do...with a strong idea and a backbone. He took on a budgetary nightmare and turned it around, took on the all-powerful teachers unions who make previous govs quake, took on the press and stood up for his ideas. That was once something to admire.
Then high school-itis set in.
It´s been like watching an 80´s movie where the nerd becomes popular before turning into the popular jerk everyone hated.
But this is a real life tragedy...he embraced the man with the triple-six on his forehead.
Bad deal, Christie. Go away now before you make it worse for yourself.

I think all the fat jokes and the wish posted that he´d have a coronary are really beneath this crowd. That´s the kind of nasty pointless attacks we usually see (and decry!) on Daily Kos, etc.

Let´s keep it classy, folks. I´m as disappointed and disgusted as anyone over Christie´s behavior, but for Pete´s sake, let´s not lower ourselves to the level of hateful liberals!

No 23 not say "Get Lost", but he didn´t have to lie about all the wonderful leadership and help. The help is still not there in many places and I see no leadership at all.

Like many I was a big Christie fan until I was shaken by his odd keynote speech at the Convention. But his traitorous, over the top wet kisses to visiting Obama --- a few days before the election! --- killed it for me.
Shut up and take care of your poor state, Chris. I´m over you.

CHICAGO — The Angus burger is going away, and it may not be the only McDonald´s dish on the chopping block. The world´s largest restaurant chain has also considered axing Caesar salads, the McSkillet Burrito, the Southern Style Biscuit and steak bagels, according to a franchisee email obtained by Bloomberg News. While the Angus burger contains as many as 820 calories and costs $4, the culling isn´t simply about offering healthier fare and cheaper items. It´s an effort by McDonald´s Corp. to streamline a menu that has expanded by 70 percent to about 145 items since 2007 — straining

You may have heard that there are a variety of scandals unfolding in Washington D.C. at the moment. Scandals swirling around the White House this week include revelations that the Internal Revenue Service singled out conservative groups for intimidation, that the Department of Justice may have expressed their frustration with the Associated Press by obtaining an absurdly wide swath of phone records, and the ever-unfolding scandal surrounding Benghazi and the administration’s response to that attack. With all these overwhelming controversies enveloping the executive branch, one question dominates in the media: When will Republicans overstep in their effort to criticize

In an interview with Bloomberg TV, former Obama chief of staff-turned-Treasury Secretary Jack Lew offered two conflicting yet carefully worded answers as to when he first learned that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) had targeted Tea Party and conservative groups: he learned last week--and possibly before the 2012 election. Bloomberg´s Al Hunt asked Lew, whose Treasury Department oversees the IRS: “When were you first notified that IRS agents were targeting conservative groups like the Tea Party?” Instead of answering Hunt’s question directly, however, Lew instead chose to answer when he first learned about the IG report, a tactic

You can feel their pain as disillusioned devotees begin peeling Obama stickers from their bumpers, no longer anxious to share an identity with him as he slips further and further into a festering pool of scandal. For years these True Believers rationalized every faux pas and reckless word emanating from the White House, because to them none of it mattered in the greater light of his glorious incumbency. If he joked with Jay Leno about his inept bowling, saying “it was like the Special Olympics,” so what? If he dismissed his critics as “people who cling to their guns

IRS sued for seizing 60

A healthcare provider has sued the Internal Revenue Service and 15 of its agents, charging they wrongfully seized 60 million medical records from 10 million Americans. The name of the provider is not yet known, United Press International said. But Courthouse News Service said the suit claims the agency violated the Fourth Amendment in 2011, when agents executed a search warrant for financial data on one employee – and that led to the seizure of information on 10 million, including state judges. The search warrant did not specify that the IRS could take medical information, UPI said.

The First Lady debuted her new longer ´do on Friday during her commencement address at Bowie State University. Her bangs, which she cut for her 49th birthday in January because of a ´midlife crisis,´ were grown out and parted to the side with her wavy hair slightly longer, touching her shoulders. ´This is my midlife crisis, the bangs.

Watching President Obama trying to dodge raindrops and responsibility yesterday reminded me of the moment when Dorothy pulls back the curtain and discovers that the Wizard of Oz is “just a man.” Stripped of his spell of mystery and power, the wizard is worse than mortal. He’s a fake. So it was with Obama in the Rose Garden. His performance was tired and trite, ordinary to the point of dull. His veneer of passion was so transparent that you could see him trying to summon his old-time magic by pushing the buttons

STANDING BEFORE reporters Thursday, President Obama declined an invitation to compare the recent scandals weighing down his administration with those that forced President Nixon to resign in 1974. So allow us to do the work for him: There is no comparison. Nixon, in a series of crimes that collectively came to be known as Watergate, directed from the White House and Justice Department a concerted campaign against those he perceived as political enemies, in the process subverting the FBI, the IRS, other government agencies and the electoral process to his nefarious purposes. Mr. Obama has done nothing of the kind.

The State Department, under Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton, created an arrangement for her longtime aide and confidante Huma Abedin to work for private clients as a consultant while serving as a top adviser in the department. Ms. Abedin did not disclose the arrangement — or how much income she earned — on her financial report. It requires officials to make public any significant sources of income. An adviser to Mrs. Clinton, Philippe Reines, said that Ms. Abedin was not obligated to do so. The disclosure of the agreement that Ms. Abedin made with the State Department comes as her husband,

The White House on Wednesday released 94 pages of emails between top administration and intelligence officials who helped shape the talking points about the attacks in Benghazi, Libya, that the CIA would provide to policymakers in both the legislative and executive branches. The documents, first reported by THE WEEKLY STANDARD in articles here and here, directly contradict claims by White House press secretary Jay Carney and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that the revisions of those talking points were driven by the intelligence community and show heavy input from top Obama administration officials, particularly those at the State Department.

President Obama’s press conference in the rain was not a success, if by success, his supporters would mean an event which convinces anyone who doesn’t work for him that he’s getting ahead of the scandal deluge. The sight of a Marine holding an umbrella over his head only added to the weirdness of the event. So what did we learn? 1. He has full confidence in Attorney General Eric Holder, the man who purportedly recused himself (whenever) without putting it in writing (whatever).

“I look forward to taking some questions at tomorrow’s press conference,” President Obama said last night, after announcing the resignation of the acting IRS commissioner Steven Miller. The president scheduled a noon press conference today with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in honor of his visit. Reporters, however, found themselves waiting outside in the rain for Obama, who was 47 minutes late. Only New York Times reporter Mark Landler had an umbrella.
