  1. Anyone who invokes the widows and orphans of 9/11 for their own personal, political gain makes me sick and loses me forever! Anyone who supports Christie´s heartless rant gets the same "support" from me. I´m done with the morons in this state!

  2. then we have Fort Hood and the self proclaimed shooter, then we have Times Square and underwear, and given to them on a silver platter, the Boston bombers, NOw they want our passwords. What is that about? To set up some individuals? We know they like to target their political opponents(IRS) or is that phoney

  3. Would have been nice if Rand chose to make this a debate. Instead he fired a few cheap shots at a strong conservative Governor who is creating a road map for our party. The politicians like Rand need to remember that they probably agree with Gov Christie on 90% of the issues!

  4. I would venture to say Christie made the opening salvo in the cheap shot game with his comments at the Aspen Institute, I don´t remember Rand calling anyone dangerous. Christie is loosing his luster nationwide as he lets the Sweeny gun bills linger and goes after other GOP´ers.
