I know a lot of people, especially the rightwingers whose only joy in life is trollin' the damn hippies, love the "FUCK YOU!" stuff from him, but I just can't imagine him going through all the months and months of campaigning without blowing up at some Iowa grandmother at the corndog stand or something and sinking faster than the Titianic. Also, remember Giuliani? Obnoxious NE Republicans don't do well in the primaries.

Chris Christie is real. He's genuine. He's not about to hide what he is really about, just for the sake of politeness or actual human interaction. You see that is what being real is all about - being a dick. You have to take him warts, boils, gaping oozing sores and all. He had to shut that guy down. After all, there were people there that deserved to hear what Christie had to say. God knows what those people did to deserve such a thing, but at least Chris was there to speak for them.

That is what Christie supporters love about him, he's a rude, harsh, unapologetic bastard. Everyone knows that a man who is that big a dick must be honest, otherwise he'd have no redeeming qualities at all. He is an American original, so much so, that when God made Chris Christie he broke the mold. Then God pissed on that mold, set it aflame and then buried that mold so deep it could never be recovered. There will never be another Chris Christie.

Technically, it's Rand Paul, the little turd, not Ron Paul, the Original Turd.

Republican party-sponsored "debates" are stage-managed? Go on!

I guess at least he didn't close the road outside the guy house for a study. Progress.

<blockquote>We are <i>so</i> looking forward to seeing you on stage with your fellow Republican presidential hopefuls, screaming “Sit down and shut up!” at them. And the moderators. And the audience.</blockquote>

Yeah, that's assuming that anybody in the audience, or at the moderators table won't already be vetted for ensuring the most softball of questions to the entire group of nuckleheads. Authentic media is nearly dead in the US.

Notice how Lauer never asked about the <em>substance</em> of the heckler's complaint that Christie is sitting on $800 million of relief money?

I'm not sure which I'd like to see more--Christie trying to shut down Clinton's Bridge to the 21st Century or Professor Populism slowly and calmly picking the little big man apart.

Sit down and shut up, Christie. On second thought, don't sit down, that chair is a priceless Stickley!

What is the sound of one pair of enormous buttocks sitting down on 800 million dollars?

Over weight. High blood pressure. Hot tempered. I give him 5 to 6 years before he strokes out.
