Brit Hume: ‘Old-Fashioned Tough Guys’ Like Christie Can’t Survive in Today’s ‘Feminized Atmosphere’
Mediaite ^ | January 12, 2014 | Evan McMurry

Brit Hume has himself a theory about why New Jersey Governor Chris Christie’s got this nagging “bully” reputation hanging round his neck: it’s not his fault, see, he’s just a bull in the emasculated china shop of the world.

“In this sort of feminized atmosphere in which we exist today, guys who are masculine and muscular like that in their private conduct, kind of old-fashioned tough guys, run some risks,” Hume said on Sunday’s Media Buzz.

Brit came unglued when Newt won the South Carolina primary. He’s been openly GOPe ever since.

Hume has become a mockery of a journalist

The RINO’s are doing everything they can to try and get conservatives and TEA Party-types to rally around the fat man.

Not happening

Feminized, hell. In comparison to some conservative women, I’m not sure most of these guys (including Christie) are strong enough for ovaries and a uterus.

America is starved for a real man to take the lead.

Christie is not a real man. He’s a lot of tough-talk and intimidation.

A real man is strong, steady, dignified and unafraid.

It has nothing to do with feminized environments. What happened is that his usefulness to Zero went away and his threat to HRC grew.

So the media went after him, no doubt with useful leaks from appropriate sources.

I disagree Christie is tuff... it’s just that he is tuff in pushing his RINO views, which I am not interested.

If he was as Conservative as Palin or Cruz I’d support him in a moment.

Hume was slow to admit or pick up on the Obama Marxist/Socialist agenda....I think he may have looked too far afield on Christiegate.....Had the MSM, talking heads gone after Hillary Clinton and her boss over Benghazi like they have Mr. Christi, what a different political scene we would be witnessing....as it is Mr. Christi’s gate has provided the community organizer some respite from the head lines and rumors of divorce. If lies are the problem, are we to ignore the Obama lies?

Hume is right, however these type of guys are thriving sexually. Reminds me of a MWC episode where Al Bundy comments on womans opinion of manhood:

“All day long it’s hack it off, hack it off. As soon as the sun goes down it’s here boy!, here boy!”

Smart tough guys, tough guys who last, know enough not to leave behind a paper trail, and not to throw their clout around when it's not necessary.

Chris Christie isn’t tough, he is a whiney RINO.
He also does boneheaded democrat moves, like his series of attacks on the 2nd amendment, then acts as if he is some kind of hero.
It isn’t toughness to push RINO crap, it is capitulation to liberalism.

Bump for LIKE even though I don’t like Christie

Nah, doesn't pass muster. I'm more and more disappointed in Hume [whom I've defended here before]. Rahm Immanuel (interestingly enough, a former ballet dancer) uses tough-guy tactics every day to the everlasting approval of the feminized press.

Britt's wrong. Christie's a Republican, even if only nominally, and that makes all the difference.

What a bunch of crap. Christie is a bully and a megalomaniac pure and simple. I’ve been around a VERY long time and have never lived through any American period/culture where Chrsistie’s behavior is acceptable. When is being a man defined as being a blustering, horrible, mean, charlatan? Cruelty and screaming has zero to do with being masculine. It is indicative of sociopathy. Hume is a fool. Christie is bordering on sociopath.

Got any similar words about Obama?

Or is your outrage confined to Republicans -- much like the press does?

Brent Hume considers Spanky Christie masculine and “muscular”. Good Lord, I’ve it all now.

He claims to be a “Catholic” but believes you are born homosexual and can not change. Directly going against the teachings of his faith. He signed legislation in NY saying mental health doctors can be arrested if they attempt to treat a homosexual, if the homosexual is unhappy and wants to change his unhealthy, immoral lifestyle. Christie, in all his liberal glory, says no way, if you are born a homosexual, accept it, you ain’t changing buddy, now get use it. This is in direct violation of the teachings of the Catholic Church.

He believes in homosexuals adopting children. This is in direct violation of the Catholic Church. He refused to fight for real marriage when the liberal NJ legislature said homosexual marriage is a “right”. He went right along with them.

He believes in abortion, saying it’s fine in cases of rape, incest and “life of the mother”. In otherwords kill the baby for the sins of the father.

He’s all for amnesty for illegals, and lastly he loves to kiss up to his skinny half-brother Barry Sinclair.
