The fat ass couldn't even waddle 100 yards without a limousine?
Gov. Christie exits a New Jersey State Police helicopter in Wayne
in this file photo. Today he took a brand-new helicopter to his
son's high school baseball game.
Good on you. You're looking like a petty conservative.
This man 'preaches' less government, claims budget cuts to education and teacher's pay are necessary because of revenue shortfalls, yet tax breaks for the wealthy are affordable. This guy REEKS. If you can't smell it, see a doctor.
And Obama preaches 'green' tells us folks to go buy $35k cars if we don't like the gas prices. Of course he's clueless on costs and really hasn't an idea of what it is to try and survive in this economy.

At least Christie doesn't pretend he's something he's not.

I look at it that as our Governor, Christie gives up a lot of his personal time.....it comes with the job. For him to use the state helicopter so that he could attend an important game for his son and then get back to another meeting is acceptable on an occaisional basis.
As a resident, I don't see Christie abusing his perks as Governor. An occaisional personal use of the helicopter is not excessive

I agree.
I would not hammer anyone for doing this a couple of times a year.
If it were a democratic Gov you can be sure the right would not have been so diplomatic about it.

Doesn't mean secret service and security for non-presidents can't still protect them while they are using THEIR OWN MONEY to travel for personal business.

well we are on polar opposites on that one.
I think its wrong.
But I do like how we are both honest and not going after him/defending him just based on his political preference

Really?
You serious?
Government is not a charity for those that join it. Nor should it be.

Then what is your beef with my position that they shouldn't be able to use taxpayer funded transportation for personal business?

Why do the mentally libtarded insist on adding links that prove how ******* dumb they can get?
from the link;
"It is a means of transportation that is occasionally used as the schedule demands," said Christie spokesman Michael Drewniak in an email. "This has historically been the case in prior administrations as well, and we continue to be judicious in limiting its use."
It's ordinary and wouldn't have made the news if it was Cristi (D) of NJ.

I would say the same thing as I'm gonna say now.... he needs to balance his political responsibilities with his parental responsibilities. So I have no issue with this.

It wouldn't have made the news. So there's no telling.
Bod, it should be a big deal, if he spends this loosely in his personal travel imagine how he spends everywhere else, and imagine how those who spend more liberally than even he does.

Yes it would have made the news just like it did here.
We will just see how you react the next time Pelosi takes a plane ride.
