Chris Matthews Implies in Joke That Chris Christie May 'CRUSH' His Wife in Bed

Be careful Tweety.......you aren't too far away from a dipping sauce......................





MSNBC host Chris Matthews got a rise out of the crowd Thursday at Thinkfest, an event sponsored by Philadelphia Magazine, by suggesting New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's (R) wife gets "crushed" under the weight of her husband.



"Two days after election day, Chris Christie has crushed his opponent. Is he going to be the Republican nominee--" Philadelphia Magazine's Tom McGrath said while speaking with Matthews on stage.

"The one I feel for is his wife," Matthews interjected to laughter from the crowd.

"Why's that?" McGrath asked.

"Did you just say 'crush?' I mean, use your imagination," Matthews said.

Former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney ultimately dropped Christie from his list of potential vice presidential nominees because Christie failed to provide documentation on his medical history, according to Mark Halperin and John Heilemann's new book "Double Down." Romney also made fun of Christie's weight, according to the book.


Christie was also the subject of a TIME cover this week that placed an image of the governor in profile under the headline "The Elephant In The Room."

3. I don't really care if Christie is fat or not.

What I do care about is the fact that he is a CONSERVATIVE. He is not progressive. Yet he's being anointed in the media at about the same level as the second coming of Jesus.

He's not a nice man. His policies are not progressive, they are regressive. His size means nothing, and fat jokes are inappropriate and detract from the real issue, which is he's an up and coming CONSERVATIVE being represented in the media as someone much more moderate.

Tweety, like most, has no room to talk. Everyone has some physical issue.

4. Why does anyone take that dingleball seriously?
