New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's re-election campaign and the state's Republican Party committee have received subpoenas from federal prosecutors investigating allegations that his aides created traffic jams as political payback.

Mark Sheridan, a lawyer representing Christie for Governor and the Republican State Committee, tells The Associated Press the subpoenas are for documents related to the closure of traffic lanes near the George Washington Bridge.

A state legislative committee investigating the traffic jams has also issued subpoenas to the two organizations.

Sheridan says the Republican governor's campaign and the party will cooperate with investigators.

No daylight between us on Christie, Publius. I hear you loud and clear.

Like I said - he fails THE litmus test.

If a pol doesn’t respect MY right to defend my life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness by the most expedient means (firearms), then he/she isn’t worth a bucket of mule piss to me.
