1. I'm hoping this is just the beginning of Humpty Dumpty's great fall

[Solly Mack]

2. Teehee

[Mass]

3. I imagine this post has to do with Christie,

but frankly, I find HuffPo is more and more a place I do not want to be. They try too much to be sensationalist for my taste rather than informative.

[Stargazer09]

6. I'd say that the front page is definitely sensationalist

Funny, too.

Spoiler alert: "Bridge Troll."

[Ccarmona]

31. I Have Removed

HuffPost from my bookmarks. It's gone to hell since Adrianna sold it to AOL and has been over-run by right wing trolls. And, many stories sit on its pages well past their sell-by dates.

[Stryke]

32. I Agree...

What news sources do you use to replace HuffPo

[Kingofalldems]

4. Ouch!

[uponit7771]

5. If any of the aides takes the fall for him then Christie will be the next GOP nom

[Stargazer09]

9. Unfortunately

I would not be surprised if things happened that way. One of his cronies will probably take the fall for him.

14. Two have resigned

Wildstein and Baroni

7. LOL. For my internet bandwidth restricted friends (spoiler alert):

24. Eldest Gruff is coming.

[Tx4obama]

41. The HuffPo top headline says: CHRISTIE THROWS CAPOS OFF THE BRIDGE

[malaise]

8. Delish

Check this toon I stole from a DUer

[KoKo]

10. Oh My...

[Delphinus]

19. Oh,

36. That must be a strong bridge!

[Brigid]

43. That's hilarious!

[malaise]

44. Beyond Geography first posted it

and I stole it
It's really freaking perfect

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

11. That was photoshopped. Here's the proof:

[marions ghost]

12. This is a serious allegation, never mind the headline

"My reaction wavers everywhere from comical to criminal," said Sokolich. "It is absolutely the most disheartening example of petty politics, which has gone so afoul, and to put the well-being of a community that has to deal with traffic issues every day to create a manmade set of circumstances that put all of us in harm's way."

"Since it would appear through these emails there was a level of intentionality, we demand an apology. We demand that somebody reach out to the folks that waited for ambulances, experiencing three to four longer response times than usual. They need to apologize to the thousands of families that couldn't get their kids to school on time on the first day of school. ... Somebody's got to cut Fort Lee back a reimbursement check for our overtime and all the other expenses that we incurred during those four days, because you have no idea what the mobilization effort around here is when something like that happens," he added.

[2naSalit]

13. How profoundly

appropriate!

16. Jeopardized the citizens for political gain...

On Wednesday, Buono told the Daily Beast that she believed all along the closures were "an act of political retribution" directed by the governor himself.

"This is a guy who runs a paramilitary operation,” Buono said of Christie. "His people don't sneeze without checking with him first. But I think what really was the most damning [revelation] was the cavalier attitude that these folks had about subjecting children and the public to public safety hazards. These are terrible people, and the ringleader is Chris Christie."

Read the article.

[Delphinus]

21. That's quite

damning, that he runs an operation so tight, people don't sneeze without his permission.

[marions ghost]

45. Narcissist control freak

with paranoid tendencies. Exhibits the excessive paternalism which often comes with Grandiosity. Like a father who exploits his own family, it's a sickness. The fact that he chose a similar personality type for his staffers is not unusual. Gang mentality.
-------
Good thing this happened before he got anywhere near the presidency. What a nightmare a Christie administration would be.

[Baitball Blogger]

17. It's Dem goats again!

Those goats keep tripping up those Republicans.

[nadinbrzezinski]

20. Ok that is creative

and confession time, I SUCK at writing headlines.

[Xyzse]

22. Buahahahahahahahahaha... Nice... "Bridge Troll"

[bvar22]

25. Oh-Oh~!

What did he KNOW,
and WHEN did he know it??!!

DURec,
but a Black Eye for all the Centrist Democrats who publicly supported him.

[ReRe]

34. Centrist Democrats...

... were NOT Democrats to begin with. Why did they do it? Politics seem to be turning into something like the horse races. They bid on the wrong horse in this one. Hope they pay the price in some way.

[catbyte]

26. This one's almost better, given Christie's love of Springsteen:

30. I love that one too!

Blunder Road!!

[IllinoisBirdWatcher]

27. All good Zork and Advent players know

[neffernin]

39. And you gotta pay the trolls toll to get into that boys soul

Just re-display that HuffPo front page.

38. Sensationalism is completely unnecessary in such a sensational story

How about this headline:

Top Christie aids punish NJ town in political retribution scandal

Really, this is so incredible that there's no need to over-inflate it Drudge Report style.

[neffernin]

37. Was there actually any work done to roads during this time?

Or did they just place cones down and nothing more? How truly blatant is that?

Found this in one of the stories:
The official explanation was that the lane closures were part of a traffic study.

Truly blatant.

[Javaman]

40. christie's history of pissing off people is now back to haunt him.

I for once, champion this long knife attack.
