Christie Blames Obamacare on Absolutism

By Matt Rooney | The Save Jersey Blog

What do you call something that costs billions of dollars (just for the roll out) but only 742 New Jerseyans wanted? A failure, Save Jerseyans. That was Governor Chris Christie assessment of Obamacare at Monday’s Wall Street Journal-hosted CEO summit in Washington, D.C.:

Obamacare is a failure, it’s always been a failure, and it will not succeed.  It just won’t.  Obamacare is wrong. It’s a failure. It’s the most extraordinary overreach of government power in the history of our country.  And, it’s being run by people who’ve never run anything.  So why are we surprised it’s failing?

Christie also waved the bipartisanship banner yet again, blaming many of Washington’s problems on “absolutists” in government:

Rush Limbaugh thinks the Governor’s bipartisanship rhetoric is absurd. Art Gallagher believes it’s perilous. What’s obvious enough to anyone paying intention is that Team Christie plans to ride the bipartisanship train to Washington or hell, come what may.
