Chris Christie to Speak at CPAC Amid Scandal

New Jersey GOP Gov. Chris Christie will speak at 2014’s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), the American Conservative Union (ACU) announced late Sunday. The ACU’s decision to invite Christie comes after he was denied a speaking slot in 2013 and amid a scandal over politically motivated highway lane closures that may jeopardize the rough-and-tumble Governor’s political future.

“We are very excited to announce that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie will speak at CPAC 2014,” ACU chairman Al Cardenas said in a statement. “At this year’s CPAC — and through our theme ‘ACU’s Golden Anniversary: Getting It Right for 50 Years’ — we will celebrate how conservatism has shaped our past and look to the future with excitement.”

I can hardly wait for Crispy to dispense his conservative wisdom on us all. I only hope its better than the pathetic Keynote speech he gave at the Republican National Convention.

Christie will be accompanied by his Imam, and a bridge repair man, to ensure applause.

Convention attendees quickly realized that Christie’s girth outstrips his speaking talent. What a bore.

It doesn’t matter what Obama did. Christie is still a despotic thug. He is still an enemy of conservatism and we need to stay out of it. For once the left is doing us a favor.

Amen!
