More of the Same from Christie's TH meeting...

Attended Christie's town hall meeting in Berkeley Twnship .... As usual, a disappointment. The place was packed with (obviously) Republican supporters. Christie got a standing O upon his grand entrance through the velvet curtains. Bruce Springsteen playing on the PA. (I thought Bruce told him to stop using his music??) 
Questions were soft- and the answers from Christie were Loooong, verbose renditions about how "difficult a job" it is to be Governor of NJ. Woe is Christie... such a tough, tough job he's got. (sniffle*sniffle). Of course like other town hall meetings, EVERYTHING is the federal government's fault. FEMA is a badly run federal program.... yadda yadda yadda. NOTHING is EVER Christie's fault or problem. Well my sister (who has been HOMELESS since Sandy, and STILL IS) had absolutely NO issues with FEMA, and/or their many rigorous regulations and qualifications. None. ALL her delays, issues and problems started at - and continue to be at - the STATE LEVEL. FEMA paid out billions, where is it all?? Held up at THE STATE LEVEL. Never did Christie mention firing the management corporations overseeing the (rebuilding) contractors, not once but TWO times, and how that's been holding things up. Nope, all he did was the usual song and dance about how incompetent and useless the federal government is... Pretty interesting take on the Federal government from someone who wants to be president, huh? Overall, this senior community love fest for Christie was exactly what I expected, and no doubt exactly what Christie was shooting for. It was very SAFE for him to come here and put on his performance unchallenged.
