Quote of the Day: "Maybe he will eliminate the Legislature next"

by: Jason Springer

Tue May 25, 2010 at 08:34:27 PM EDT



We wrote earlier about how Governor Christie is trying to eliminate the independent State Commission of Investigation, which is a part of the legislative branch and move it's responsibilities to the Office of the Comptroller, an Executive branch department. Senate President Steve Sweeney is not ready to go along for this ride and quips that it may be a slippery slope:
"We have a lot of things to fix and I am going to work with Christie . . . but this isn't one of the ones that's broken. So, we're not going to fix this. It is the Legislature's investigative arm. If I let him do this, maybe he will eliminate the Legislature next."
Don't tempt him Senator.

I don't get it... (4.00 / 1)
How can it be that NJ voters would so blinded by Christie's "sizeable" so-called charisma to think he was going to fix the states problems  on his own. The Gov. has behaved and continues to behave like a bull in a China shop, with a "I don't give a crap about what you think" attitude and openly disparaging people. His attitude and behavior is like Marie Antoinette "let them eat cake"....and we all know what happened to her...90% of NJ residents will one way or another feel the pain of his policies directly. When that happens, what's next?
