that shit for years. And along comes Christie who we all knew was a bully in passing if we don't live in NJ but the last couple of days Mr Christie's bully past and present is coming back to bite him in ways he and his observers never even dreamed of! Is that why I'm so fascinated with Gov Bully's fall from perch?

"I could actually hear the coach hired for this express purpose telling him how to be phony-contrite, phony-responsible, phony-sanctimonious, phony-concerned, phony-incredulous, phony-moral, and phony-concerned."

That's what I've been saying.. Christie had a hellava drama coach.. only he should have mentioned that it would go down a little better if he weren't wallowing in so much pity for himself.. and move it on to the People of his state.

Sorry, you had to go through such encounters with bullies growing up, PC.
