... Christie is acting on Christie's behalf - no doubt. But I was still struck by Armey's choice of words there. We all know that "Fair" and "Politics" are almost always mutually exclusive concepts in the political arena - especially for the GOP - but they don't generally own up to that publicly. To hear the House leader as much as admit it, out loud, with cameras there... I'm just a little surprised. I think they might be so tightly immersed in their bubble now that they simply forget sometimes to keep up the pretense.
