New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie slammed the National Rifle Association’s latest ad in which they accuse President Barack Obama of hypocrisy for sending his children to a school where they are protected by armed guards. Christie called the ad “reprehensible” and said that the NRA should not be “dragging people’s children” into the gun control debate.

“I think any of us who are public figures, you see that kind of ad and you cringe,” Christie said on Thursday at a news conference in Trenton. “I’m a father who is a public figure, who has four children and my children had no choice realistically in what I decided to do with my career and what affect that has had on their lives.”
“Don’t be dragging people’s children into this,” he added. “It’s wrong and I think it demeans them and it makes them less of a valid trusted source of information on the real issues that confront this debate.”
“Are the president’s kids more important than yours?” the narrator in the NRA advertisement asks. “Then why is he skeptical about putting armed security in our schools when his kids are protected by armed guards at their school?”
“Mr. Obama demands the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes, but he’s just another elitist hypocrite when it comes to a fair share of security,” the controversial ad concludes.
Sounds like he will be joining the demonrat party in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. . .
The slobbering hog took his lips off of little barry bastard boy’s behind long enough to make another dumb-as-a-post proclamation, ignoring his little demigod’s exploitation of children in proposing the newest gloablist agenda decrees.
Who thinks this guy is presidential material? I don’t any more.
Christie proved he was a pseudo-Dem long before his Obama-gasm after Hurricane Sandy. Christie has been intentionally appointing leftist judges (homosexuals, muslims) and showing his dhimmitude for quite some time and then attacking conservatives who dared to criticize his decisions. His attacks on conservatives are aimed at building him street cred with Dems and their supporters in the media. But as much as they love to see him attack conservatives, they would trample him in a minute if they think they can take back the Governor’s chair. At the moment he’s simply a useful idiot.
Is Ann Coulter still defending him?
I was traveling last Thursday and missed this.
If there is ever a future discussion about why Christie is awful presidential material, then this should be front and center. He is willfully obtuse.
Governor Christie....are your kids more valuable than mine?
The GOP....will push him, Jeb, or some other major worthless oxygen pirate.......
Channeling him....for sure.
