Is Jon Corzine Advising Harry Reid as Government Shutdown Looms?

Congressional Democrats are using government shutdown rhetoric that has his fingerprints all over it, Save Jerseyans. You may remember how Former Governor Jon Corzine spent most of the 2009 general election smearing then-candidate Chris Christie. “Corslime” infamously made an issue of Christie’s body weight and, worse still, accused Christie of attempting to defund mammograms even though Christie’s own mother battled breast cancer:

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid borrowed from the same playbook on Friday, blasting House Republican negotiators for insisting on Planned Parenthood budget cuts that would allegedly impact cancer screenings. This is of course false just as it was when Corzine uttered the same lies in 2009. The Washington Times and many others have called it: Planned Parenthood doesn’t even offer mammograms! The goal here is to spin enough lies and pull enough heart strings to make Republicans look like monsters. The only real monsters in this story are Hill Democrats playing with fire by ignoring the serious debt crisis facing our country.

The good news is that it won’t work assuming House Republicans follow Governor Christie’s example. If they do, this evil mammogram tactic will benefit Hill Democrats as much as it did Corzine who, besides being fired by the voters, is reportedly stuck in Nigeria monitoring elections.
