At this point it seems pretty obvious that New Jersey governor Chris Christie screwed up when he left the state so he wouldn’t have to deal with a large snowstorm headed towards their way, but his excuse that he did it for the children is a bit over the top.
Asked about the timing of his trip, the governor added, “My first and most important responsibility, in my view, is as a husband and a father.”
At face value, that sounds fine, but the circumstances don’t exactly help his case. The storm was serious enough for the acting governor to declare a state of emergency, coordinate with state and local agencies, and activate the National Guard. While this was going on, Christie’s “first and most important responsibility” was to hang out at the Magic Kingdom?
Christies’s level of self absorption is pretty amazing, and at this point leaves me speechless
