THE NARRATIVE AND POLITICAL CORRECTNESS
“Threats to freedom of speech, writing and action, though often trivial in isolation, are cumulative in their effect and, unless checked, lead to a general disrespect for the rights of the citizen.”-George Orwell
This video of Chris Christie talking to the editorial board of the Des Moines Register is absolutely disgraceful.
First,
Christie boasts that he is proud to have signed a billthat deprives
New Jerseyans who end up on the "terror watch list" of their Second
Amendment rights. And then - as casually as can be - he concedes that
there are no due process protections for those who have been affected.
Worse,
Christie demonstrates that he "understands" how widespread the problems
with the systems are, but indicates that he doesn't especially care.
Having cited the bizarre case of Fox's Stephen Hayes, Christie admits
that "from what I understand, it is a very, very difficult thing to be
able to work your way off of it." It should, he suggests, be "easier."
And
yet, when asked whether he thinks his endorsement of the bill was a
mistake, Christie flatly says "no." Of course there will be people who
are unfairly punished, he proposes. But that that is not a good reason
to limit the government's power.
Naturally, I disagree - and
strongly. We are talking here, remember, about an enumerated
constitutional right. In fact, we are talking about two enumerated
constitutional rights: the right to due process and the right to keep
and bear arms.
If Chris Christie believes that the unfounded suspicions
of the executive branch should trump those protections, that is his
prerogative. But those voting in the upcoming primaries should think
long and hard about whether they agree with him.
Do we really want to put a man with this attitude in the Oval Office of the White House?
Christie was just getting warmed up. "Secondly, I never wrote a
check to Planned Parenthood," he continued. Did he make his donation
with cash or by credit card, then? Bob Ingle's Chris Christie: The Inside Story of His Rise to Power (2012), quotes him declaring in a 1994
race for Morris County freeholder that he supports "Planned Parenthood
with my personal contribution."
In response to the question, Christie said: "Well I never donated to Planned Parenthood, so that's wrong."
"So, just on the Planned Parenthood," Dickerson pressed. "Never donated, never supported?"
"No. No," Christie said.
However, the governor's statement doesn't fit with what he had to say in 1994 while a candidate for county office.
"I
support Planned Parenthood privately with my personal contribution and
that should be the goal of any such agency, to find private donations,"
Christie was quoted saying in The Star-Ledger on Sept. 30, 1994. "It's
also no secret that I am pro-choice."

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) wrapped up a three-day trade mission to London on Tuesday that was widely seen as an effort to build his stature as a national figure and potential 2016 presidential candidate. But the trip was marred by confused locals, canceled press availabilities, and bad headlines that left the governor's brand battered and bruised.
Business Insider was there to witness some of the journey that liberal operatives and journalists are mocking as a "full-on disaster" and a "trip from hell."
Christie began his visit Sunday by watching a game between the Premier League soccer teams Arsenal and Aston Villa. The New York Times noted many of the Londoners attending the game seemed to have no idea who the governor was.
On Monday, Christie visited the city of Cambridge, where he met with representatives of the life-sciences industry, visited a cemetery for American troops who died in World War II, and toured the laboratory at MedImmune, a company that makes vaccines. The lab visit led to the first major firestorm of Christie's trip...
Not since Mitt Romney has a non-incumbent presidential hopeful taken a foreign trip that's been marked by so much bad press at home

Liberalism in microcosm: Harvard faculty who championed Obamacare for the rest of us are upset they didn’t get an exemption. BAWAHAHA!!

Harvard faculty who promoted and helped pass Obamacare are now complaining that their health costs are increasing. The hypocrisy is real.

Wouldn't it be cool if Zombies & Vampires became human if we bit them first? Somebody needs to test that hypothesis.
