NJ Governor Chris Christie sat down with NBC News' ‘Morning Joe' panel to discuss how he plans to lower taxes and decrease NJ's debt. Christie explained that the Pension Reform bill that he is poised to sign will effectively save NJ tax payers $132 billion and make health insurance affordable to public workers without increasing the tax burden on NJ residences. When asked why tax hikes aren't on the table, Christie says that the top 1% of NJ residents pay 41% of the income tax and face the highest taxes in America, they've ‘already paid their fair share'.

Interesting. I tend to agree with you on most of that, but I’m sure Palin is a wise choice RIGHT NOW as the media has so successfully demonized her.
But I wouldn’t assume Obama is out for the count by ANY means. He’s a Democrat and what Democrats due BEST is run for office. He has a big machine and lots of money, and the media will be around to microscutinize, parce and dissect ANYTHING the GOP candidate says, while presenting Obama in the BEST POSSIBLE light.
Yes!! Every time I watch Christie in a give and take with liberals, he comes away the clear winner in the exchange. This ability simply seperates him from the rest of the pubbies.
Well, he DOES agree with them on some points anyway.
See my posts.
ANYBODY but Obama - except for Huntsman who actually worked for him.
...yes - and I don't think those conservatives who dismiss Christie as a RINO realize just how rare and valuable his skills are.
“Whoever wins the Republican primary will be POTUS this time around.”
NO, the media and their echo of leftist lies will make it a very close election that Omama could win. I like and respect Palin, but the media has so many laugh lines ready on her that I think Palin would lose as the GOP candidate. The left seems to have a vendetta against Republican women and is already savaging Bachmann, even though she has fewer known negatives now than Palin. I wish Paul Ryan was running as only he seems to be able to fit all the conservative want list.
Someone should give Christie a “basic lesson” in why global warming is a scam game.
Christie explained that the Pension Reform bill that he is poised to sign will effectively save NJ tax payers $132 billion and make health insurance affordable to public workers without increasing the tax burden on NJ residences... the top 1% of NJ residents pay 41% of the income tax and face the highest taxes in America, they've :already paid their fair share"... NY Gov. Cuomo[sexual Agenda] is set to lower [NY state] tax rates to 6.5% next week... without this bill NJ cannot compete with NY because they "already pay the highest taxes in America".
FNC special report reported today that our Dem Maryland governor signed a bill that, look here:
Maryland now requires ‘environmental proficiency’ to graduate from high school
On top of raising our taxes again to pay for illegals college tuition. Christie doesnt look bad from here.
The indoctrination continues.
I am looking at Christie as a governor not a president. For those taht would rather have a Democrat than Christie as governor they need to live in Maryland where the Democrats under O Malley passed a number of laws to ensure continued Democrat power :
1) Gave ‘ex-cons’ the vote, even after treason
2) Early voting in Democrat areas
3) Brainwashing kids in public schools to worship the global god.
Before Christie came along NJ was in about the same state (no pun intended) as MD..
