Chris Christie does the Obama two-step and claims he "didn't know" and "no one told" him about the bridge thing. His chumminess, after the Sandy storm, with the biggest liar of 2013 must have rubbed off. But he goes one step further, in what you might call, a positive manner. He fires the individual responsible for planning the traffic jam outside of Fort Lee. He has the gumption to toss a loyal supporter under the bus knowing she will probably spill the beans about his involvement. That takes guts. Our president has no such scruples. Obama stays loyal to his henchmen and even rewards them for their criminal behavior. Lois Lerner, who lied before congress and then took "The Fifth" about her actions preventing conservative groups from achieving tax free status from her own IRS, was permitted to take months off from work, with pay and eventually was permitted to retire with a six figure pension. No need for any Obama functionary to worry about the loss of his/her job or criminal penalties for their falsehoods no matter how criminal or heinous. The list is endless. James Clapper, Susan Rice, Eric Holder and Hillary Clinton are just a few of Obama's defensive line who blithely lie, smile and retreat back into their office mansions to take the "thumbs up" call from their leader. But these people will remain silent. Their loyalty is to the party, their chief and not to the taxpaying public. So to Chris Christie: enjoy your double whole pizza dinner tonight and pat yourself on the back that you at least fired one of your underlings for the mischief you had a hand in. But you're not yet in the league of the big players whose teams play with no rules at all.
