First came bridge-gate. Now the mayor of Hoboken, N.J., has accused Gov. Chris Christie's administration of withholding Superstorm Sandy relief when she refused to OK a redevelopment project — with links to the agency at the heart of the bridge scandal — the governor favored.

It would seem so. His major defense on everything is “I did it just the way Obama and I planned...he approved it all.”

I’d like to see how he’s gonna square that, even with a bunch of RINO GOPe traitors.

.......this may be the first time EVER that I have agreed with a Democrat.................

This game she speaks of is played all the time in every city and state across the land. Dummy me, at 36, once refused to build a combination fishing pier, jogging and bike bridge across a downtown lake for free. The liberals sued, killed my 300,000 sf office building and broke me and many others financially while costing hundreds of jobs.

I don’t trust Christie. To me he is nothing but another corrupt lawyer/politician who leans left but talks right.

I rather imagine that many freepers don’t know why so many lawyers are involved in so many projects. The answer is not what you think. The answer IS “attorney client priviledge”. Illustration: A reporter asks a lawyer out in front of Council Chambers “how much money has Developer Smith (the lawyers client) given Councilman X?”.............attorney responds “I can’t answer that, that’s subject to attorney client privledge”.

Or, Governor Christie tells one of his raft of lawyers “tell Zimmer if she doesn’t support the Rockefeller Project she ain’t getting any relief money”. Reporter asks that lawyer “did Governor Christie ever tell you to tell Zimmer no money?” ............lawyer responds “I can’t answer that, it is subject to “Executive Privledge” and “attorney client privledge”.

Anything ANY of the Rockefeller boat load of lawyers says to anybody about this project is subject to privilege which is very rarely broken.

Until some conservatives realize the GOP and republicans are just as much an enemy as the dems, then conservatives will never win again.

I don’t believe we can win another election for President until we clean house. I truly believe Obama has dirt on many Republicans, including Boehner, and that is why we see no spines in all that Dems and Obama is allowed to get away with it...changing Obamacare without Congressional approval, EO’s,dragging their feet on impeaching Holder, etc.

Gonzalez, Atty General under Bush 2nd, was supeoned, harrassed until he resigned.

I wish someone would just get all the dirt out on the Repubs and be done with it....sick of the hostage tacking. Or- wish the GOPs who are being black-mailed would just out themselves...
