Title: As escapees stream out, a penal business thrives

I'm not going to attach the article. You can find it for yourself.
I read that NB. I guess for NJ that kind of stuff is the norm. Probably for Christie he doesn't see anything wrong with what he does...

Does Hillary have experience in running penal institutions?

Tell us about Obama's Chicago...

Re: Christie In Trouble Again
This is a good article that is in the Union Leader today:
Chris Christie claims ignorance, expects bliss
JUST BECAUSE something is true does not mean it is believable. Which is Chris Christie's real problem.
His "see no evil; hear no evil; my staff is evil, but I'm not" defense for the closing of bridge lanes in Fort Lee, N.J., allegedly because the mayor there refused to endorse his re-election may be true. But who is going to believe it?
"(Christie's) the kind of leader . who says, 'It's my way, or I shut down your highway,'" as Stephen Colbert put it the other night.
Christie wants to be the Republican nominee and win the presidency in 2016. Once again, the Republicans have a pretty weak field, and Christie leads the early (meaningless) polls for the nomination. But what has he shown the nation in recent weeks?
First, he surrounds himself with bullies and goons. Richard Nixon never was convicted of anything (he was an unindicted co-conspirator and then accepted a presidential pardon), but even if you believe he is not a crook, how do you explain all the crooks he surrounded himself with? How do you explain Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Mitchell, Liddy, Hunt and all the others who were convicted of crimes? Nixon assembled enough lawbreakers to staff several prison baseball teams.
New Jersey Assemblyman John Wisniewski, a Democrat, is heading the legislative investigation of the George Washington Bridge scandal. He says: "It strains credibility to say that somebody in as high a position as a deputy chief of staff, somebody in as high a position as the governor's principal press spokesperson, somebody in as high a position as his campaign manager - all those names are in these emails - did not ever communicate this to the governor."
But even if we do believe it, who assembled that team? Chris Christie, wasn't it? "I am a very sad person," Christie now says. "I'm sad. I'm sad." Not the best presidential campaign theme I've ever heard. We've had enough sad Presidents. And sorry ones.

They're just in it for a "Slap-and-Dash" response. I don't mind providing a source, because it makes me check on the veracity of their "Slap-and-Dashes".
BTW: I don't think Christie could be as shady as they're making him out to be. He's by no means the "Lone Ranger" we're looking for, but I think he's being attacked as Hillary's most serious opponent.
Do you really think Republicans would nominate another Northeastern Liberal?
.
Re: Christie In Trouble Again
Of course you are right. They always attack someone when they are afraid that person is getting too popular. Rememer Sarah Palin. I hope the Republicans don't nominate another northeastern liberal again but I am afraid they might not have learned.

Christie's closest associates have been tied in to bridgegate, so the attacks are not because of his popularity. About 5 of them have lost their jobs, so Christie is one sworn statement away from getting himself in really big trouble.
The new accusation is even worse. The Mayor of Hoboken says Christie's Lt Governor threatened to withhold Sandy Aid until a certain building project is approved. I wouldn't be surprised if the Lt Governor takes the fifth after she gets sworn in at the first hearing. Official coercion of another public official is a crime and Governor Christie is very close to it!

I'll wait for "The Lone Ranger", who I suspect will come from a state West or South.
How is Christie different from Obama?
Did you notice that FEMA "aid" for Hurricane Sandy's victims has been many times greater than hurricane-ravaged states who've paid-in 4-5 greater "resources" to FEMA?

Re: Christie In Trouble Again
Christie isn't much different than Obama or Bush, or Clinton or the first Bush.

Re: Christie In Trouble Again
It's ironic that a girl who grew up in Laconia might actually be the one who takes Christie down:

Re: Christie In Trouble Again
It looks like Christie's inner circle is starting to turn on him! What an interesting development!

Anyone want to start a pool on when Christie resigns?

Christie now has "selective amnesia"! Bottom line is he's done for 2016!
