Gov. Chris Christie wants the leader of New Jersey's National Guard to shape up.
The Republican governor has given Air Force Brig. Gen. Michael Cunniff 90 days to slim down and meet his obligations.
The action comes after Christie's staff told The Washington Post that the governor was unaware the general had been reprimanded by the Pentagon about his weight and for repeatedly dodging physical-fitness tests.

He’s right, but still...
A guy shouldn’t be way out of shape and lead a military unit.

Oh, this is as rich as the desserts that NJFatBoy has obviously overindulged in.

Correct. But the doughnut boy should have some common sense to stay out of this one, at least not do it publicly.

I agree. A private e-mail might have been best.
Perhaps doing it publicly is advised when you know it will wind up there anyway.
Oh well...

Wow you’re right.
Although NJFatboy has most of his weight out front, so in a head on view he doesn’t look huge.

To be fair, the guy is a military man, in charge of troops and he’s setting a poor example. He failed his PT test, which he only took sporadically. None of us enlisted folks would ever be able to dodge our PT test, nor last very long with a weight problem.

Bring out the Deuce and a Half. We got a heavy load here.

If you are in uniform, you have weight and fitness requirements.
Period.
