The former Port Authority official who personally oversaw the lane closings at the George Washington Bridge, central to the scandal now swirling around Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey, said on Friday that “evidence exists” that the governor knew about the closings when they were happening.

A lawyer for the former official, David Wildstein, wrote a letter describing the move to shut the lanes as “the Christie administration’s order” and said “evidence exists as well tying Mr. Christie to having knowledge of the lane closures, during the period when the lanes were closed, contrary to what the governor stated publicly in a two-hour press conference” three weeks ago
What a jackass.
 



So do you think its true American.....that they got the proof to show Christie knew? If it comes out that he did. he is toast. Already some of the Left are putting together a petition wanting his resignation.

Christie should have known to stay aqueky clean. As the Democrats thrive off this type of **** except when it is brought their way.

Also I would note how many times **** has been leaked by someone that was on the inside. Yet aligned with the left and there to only get whatever dirt they can on whatever Republican.

Now you know why I want the Demos to start seeing it being brought to them. From their mouthpieces in the Media. To their Politicians.

Beat them with their own tactics and game.
 
I'm not sure it matters at this point, and frankly I think Christie is a fat jackass who lost the base when he kissed Obama's ass. He got accolades from every liberal on this site for being all nice to Obama over the hurricane relief. What they really loved is that he was ****ing himself politically.
 
The right turned on him pretty quick, many of his fellow right wingers are glad to be rid of him. Why does the right always blame the left for their own malfunctions? The left did not close the bridge to get back at political rivals, Christie did. It is funny, even with evidence in this case, the right still points the finger, yet when Obama is accused of something absolutely no evidence of wrongdoing is needed.

Classy.

who lost the base when he kissed Obama's ass. He got accolades from every liberal on this site for being all nice to Obama over the hurricane relief. What they really loved is that he was ****ing himself politically.

That's a popular sentiment, but one that hasn't actually panned out. Christie has been and remains the strongest challenger to a generic Democratic candidate and Clinton in particular.
 
"Evidence exists". Sounds a bit hopeful to me.

They loved Christie when his lips were on Obama's ass, but turned on him the second they figured he might run for president. Personally I think they screwed up turning on Christie now,they should have waited until he won the primary.

The right wingbats are not responsible for what they do. They are picked on and held back. They are poor victims of the left wingbats and could be great if only the evil left wing media would leave them alone.
 
the lawyer presented NO evidence.
 
Classy.

This seems to be the claim made by every liberal.

Well any that are on the Right.....should understand that for years the Demos have been infiltrating their party and the media. Thats one.....staying squeaky clean should be forefront in their minds.

Christie cannot be trusted under conservative principles which is why they wont trust him.

Course I don't see you saying anything about those on the Right that do take their blame and responsibility. Other than Spitzer out of NY......who you got on the left that will stand up actually take the blame and the responsibility for their own malfunctions.....and why does it take numerous weeks for them to finally give in to what all know is the truth? Which then finally coping out.....but never saying why they continued to argue about it anyways.....knowing they would get caught.

Oh and Mak.....lets not use the excuse they said they take the blame and the responsibility and then no actions comes forth from them.

Yeah the Right points the finger at the left.....Just like the left points the finger at the Right.....and all others.....and finally with themselves.

Course that Happens with Obama.....comes from when there has been evidence of and or all points lead back to him.

th


Which him thinking he don't have to answer for his screw ups.....was another one of failed concepts from the start.

The problem is the right don't have anyone that will appeal to the people that don't live in the alphabet world. Christie was probably their best choice, but even most of their base would not support him. The 2016 election is theirs to lose or win, but they need to have someone that appeals to those that are not affiliated with either party.

Morning MMC, I do not know if Christie knew or not and therefore will not judge and hang him depending on my political views or what political party I belong to or not. But I do think we should find out one way or the other and let his future hinge on the facts. I think the fact that few Republicans haven’t rushed to defend him probably shows they really didn’t want him as their presidential nominee to begin with. American may be right, he may be more of a product of the media than Republicans themselves. I do not know if Christie is toast, especially if it is proven he wasn’t behind the lane closures and really didn’t know. But even so, he is probably damaged goods. But two years is a long time to recoup some of his standing among the American electorate.

Personally, I think the IRS scandal if there is any there, there is much more important than any bridge lane closing. Messing with one’s speech or denying a certain political group its speech to get out their message is much worse in my mind. But I do not think we will ever know the truth about it until long after the president has left office. The Democrats are real good at this game, much better than Republicans who seem to be very inept. But this is me, I fear the IRS a whole lot more than the NSA or someone closing a lane or two on a bridge. Closing the IRS case without letting the public know who was responsible and the whys and whens does in my mind smack of a cover up. It seems a very successful one. But I also do not know if that is true or not, but that seed is deeply implanted in my mind.
 
Com'on man. :damn you really think the Republicans have been infiltrated by them lefties? There is evidence against Christie, emails from one of his closest aides and sworn statements. The Faux rages consisted of unnamed sources on the ground which many claims have been proven untrue and no evidence for the others and a low level IRS guy in Cincinnati that somehow Obama was suppose to meet at the Easter party or something absurd like that. The RW noise machine makes up outrages. that is why no one accepts supposed responsibility. And there are hundreds mroe of made up BS from the right, not to mention the birther thing...

there seems to be a lot of misinformation out there that the left win MSM is creating.

did he know about the bridge closure. He said that he knew about it the day after or the day off.
According to Christie he was told that it was a traffic study test. He did not find out about the other part of it till just what a month ago.
Sure he knew the bridge was closed but he was told a different reason as to why the bridge was closed than the real reason.

there is nothing inconsistent in his statements. the left is trying to ruin his 2016 change just like they lied about herman cain in 2012 because he was a huge threat to obama.
 
Personally I think they screwed up turning on Christie now,they should have waited until he won the primary.

That is a curious thing that political opponents never seem to have the patience to play that card at the right time. I would not want to go fishing with a politician.

No, really it was that we loved how much Republicans spewed hatred. We love watching the GOP devour itself and turn on anyone who would dare offer any praise for Obama, even if the praise were deserved in that situation. If Ted Cruz dropped a piece of paper and Obama picked it up for him, Cruz would have to avoid saying "thanks" or else his entire base would crucify him. It's really entertaining.
 
Christie says he did not know, yet he was with the person who ordered it that entire day. Why does he get a pass yet Obama is suppose to know what is going on in some low level office hundreds of miles away?

Wasn't Herman Cain harassing employess, then uh, I guess the left lied about the payoffs, I am sure that never happened...I am sure it was some left infiltrating...it would just be work to be a right winger now days. I dont think I could keep up with all this victim stuff.

I disagree. This sort of malarkey has been played out ever since there has been people running for or trying to hold on to a office; it went on then, and it's going to go on now. :shrug:

Yep.....all one has to do is look at how they caught Romney up with what he said, in a private fundraiser. No press.

Well this Morning Mak it was WBBM.....that's CBS not Fox. Also over the IRS Scandal.....there goes that theory about owning up to ones actions. Like Personally firing the Inspector general that was all up into Obama's Pal and Mayor of Sacremento. Which came long before Obama and anything he did with the IRS this past week.

Yet look at what you are saying Mak.....that most of the Right turned on Christie. Yet he never ever had most of the Right in the first place.

Mornin' Bob. Yeah I know it has.....other than for the fact of the Press. Which when event are held with No press. Then Just who shows up to leak what someone said, pretty much puts that all into perspective.

While all can agree such has gone on from the beginning.....none can deny what these Two parties are able to do. By Influence alone.
 
I still like Christie and would vote for him over Clinton.
 
Where is the evidence, huh?
Even Gov. Christie's office admitted yesterday that he knew "during" the lane closures of the "lane closures".
They just haven't said when.
where is the evidence?
I only count two that have taken the 5th, presumably waiting for immunity.
I don't imagine this was the Super weekend for which Christie was looking .
