In returning the bill to the Legislature, Christie reaffirmed his view that voters should decide whether to change the definition of marriage in New Jersey. His veto also proposed creating an ombudsman to oversee compliance with the state’s civil union law, which same-sex couples have said is flawed. [Click photo for story]

In a comment related to his call for a voter referendum on the proposal to legalize gay marriage in New Jersey, Gov. Chris Christie said Wednesday, “People would have been happy to have referendum on civil rights rather than fighting and dying in the streets in the South.”

THE OUTRAGE.

New Jersey Governor Chris Christie (whose children are in private school) had harsh words for a constituent who challenged him on his lack of support for public schools. Cenk Uygur and Jayar Jackson discuss.

Just, what the fuck?! Chris Christie tells New Jersey voter to mind her own business.

You know, I lived in New Jersey most of my life and I can’t understand for the life of me why we can’t elect a decent governor. When the best governors in the state’s modern history are Christie Whitman and Jon Corzine you’ve got a real fucking problem. But for Corzine to lose out to Bush crony Christie is perverse.

Look, everyone, cigarette-funded private schools. It’s like a libertarian’s wet fucking synergy dream!

Statements like those are at the core of Gov. Chris Christie’s campaign to cut state spending by getting tougher on unions. They are not, however, accurate.

New Jersey’s public-sector unions routinely pressure the State Legislature to give them what they fail to win in contract talks. Most government workers pay nothing for health insurance. Concessions by school employees would have prevented any cuts in school programs last year.

The New York Times takes a look at N.J. Gov. (and former lobbyist turned, Bush attorney) Chris Christie’s lies. Christie is gearing himself up to be the next Scott Walker and some are suggesting he run for president in 2012.

Glenn Beck thinks God is giving him a plan. Also, a Muslim-American woman banned from adopting a child, a Muslim group threatens South Park because he doesn’t like a cartoon and Chris Christie refuses to address the 8,000 pound governor in the room.
