Christie Lapdogs Found Guilty!

hes going down
They keep saying it was about the Ft. Lee mayor. There is substantial evidence that it's much deeper than that. The day before he ordered the shutdown, he went ballistic on air about the 'animals' in the state legislature who were blocking his judicial appointments. He broke with a 60 year tradition of automatically granting tenure to a sitting judge after the first 7 year term.

He tried to load his SC with conservative judges who would rule in favor of his pet issues...housing and cuts to education.


The Dem legislature screwed him, and he went nuts. The majority leader represents Ft. Lee.


Some of the story that started with his refusal to grant tenure:
Christie wants to roll back Supreme Court decisions that mandate affordable housing and require more money for urban school districts, but he has been stymied by the court at almost every turn — rare defeats for a governor who has otherwise been successful at navigating an opposition-controlled Legislature.

[FONT=&quot]The judicial stalemate that has become a hallmark of the Christie era dates to 2010, when Christie took the historically unprecedented step of denying tenure to Justice John Wallace, a Gloucester County Democrat. Christie said that it was his prerogative to make the court less “activist” and “liberal,” but Democrats accused him of trying to buck a tradition of independence and make the court overly conservative.[/FONT]

This had nothing to do with the lack of an endorsement. He was polling at 60% or more
