You GO, girlfriend! "Chris Christie praises George W. Bush at conference on economy." USA! USA! USA!

[Amerigo Vespucci]

HACKENSACK, N.J. — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie took another tax-cutting budget victory lap on Tuesday, pitching his economic recovery message to an audience outside New Jersey.

Christie delivered his message of economic recovery through tax cuts and spending restraint before former President George W. Bush at an economic forum organized by Bush’s Texas-based presidential center.

Christie barely mentioned Bush during the 2009 gubernatorial election. But during a speech that helped kick off the conference on pro-growth tax policies Tuesday, the governor praised the former president and said Bush’s conference agenda offers “the right policies for an America that’s optimistic.”

“Mr. President, thank you for setting that example, thank you for inspiring a whole new generation of conservative Republican leaders who you helped create,” he said to Bush, who was sitting right in from of him in the front row at the New-York Historical Society.

[Rambis]

3. A Big shit house talking up an even bigger dumb ass

"spending restraint" The shrub? FFS! Shrub doesn't even want the tax cuts he put in place to be named "the Bush tax cuts". The american people are stupid but they cannot be this fucking stupid. These people are certifiable!

[hifiguy]

5. I knew Christie was a bullying, arrogant, loudmouthed

tub of shit. Now I can add "idiotic" to that list. Chimpoleon did for the US economy what the iceberg did for the Titanic.

[monmouth]

6. He also fell asleep at Bruce's concert at MSG. Ingrate....n/t

7. Spending restraint?

Bewsh doubled the National Debt on folly wars and so wealthy people could get an extra lottery in tax savings every year to add to their lottery compensations.

But hey, with all of that extra green in their pockets, at least job creation skyrocketed during that time . . .. oh wait . .. . . . .

9. Spending doesn't count as spending if you call it...

...emergency supplemental appropriations. Then you can put whole wars on a credit card and claim "spending restraint".

[HughBeaumont]

11. "emergency supplemental appropriations"

That must mean "Deal with Terr by avoiding your daddy's oil buds in Saudi Arabia like the plague (even though 15 of the 19 9/11 hijackers are from that kingdom) and attack two different non-threatening sovereign nations entirely, but somehow make the gullible American public believe that there's a connection."

Silly me.

[JHB]

13. Why that's exactly what's in the Republican-to-English dictionary!

Which edition do you have?

[DCKit]

10. Geez, because we have no memory of watching the economy go to shit during Bushco*?

Yeah, yeah, I know, the "faithful" are totally brainwashed, and will eat this stuff up. Regarding the economy, deficit, debt, illegal wars and abolishment of our Civil and Constitutional rights, there was no two-term, (R) - mentally deficient pResident between Clinton and Obama.

[intaglio]

12. The thought of Christie and Shrub as a couple is disgusting

You owe me for 3 gallons of mind bleach

[mac56]

14. Awesome.

The more Repos who invoke He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named, the better.

After all the effort they've put into pretending he didn't ever exist!
