Mr. Small Gummint


New Jersey Rethug Gov. Chris "Slim" Christie likes to play the tough, bullying conservative who wants to put government on a diet, something he might consider someday. Now, there are reports that Slim took a NJ State Police helicopter to see his son's baseball game. When he landed, he hopped in a car to take him the remaining 100 yards to the game, which he left in the 5th inning.

This large pile of hypocrisy is slipping in New Jersey polls, despite the Beltway media's infatuation with him. It seems his zeal to cut state education and infrastructure budgets doesn't carry over to his personal perks as Governor.
