“I find it fascinating
that a doctor in Arizona
who's never met me,
never examined me,
never reviewed my
history or medical
records, knows nothing
about my family history
could make a diagnosis
from 2,400 miles away,”
Christie said Wednesday.

IIt
goes without saying that you can only push a fat politician so
far (think about that for a moment) before you will have your
hand bitten off (perish the thought if it was holding a pizza).
And evidently New
Jersey's Governor Christie has had just about enough commentary
on his girth.
So, let's do some
more!
Earlier this week
Governor Christie took time from his chores of begging for
Federal dollars for the impact of hurricane Sandy on his state
to visit with a washed up television comedian and was subjected
to endless fat jokes. Christie, 50 in age and
in stone, seems to be able to handle that he is grossly obese,
but suggest that he is going to die early and you've just made
that third bucket of KFC seem so unappetizing.
And so enters
former White House physician Connie Mariano, who happens to live
in Arizona, and was asked about the Gubernatorial
Girth. Mariano, who was Bill Clinton's White House
physician and says she's a Republican, weighed in on the issue
by suggesting she'd be worried that Krispie Kreme Kristie would
die in office.
And that remark
set Christie off.
Christie called the remarks careless.
“She should shut up,” he said when asked about it during a news conference Wednesday in a town devastated by Superstorm Sandy.
“My 12-year-old son came to me last night and said ‘Dad, are you going to die?’ I mean, c'mon. This is irresponsible stuff,” he
said
It should be
noted that the Sandy Hook children were unavailable to be used
as a political prop with Christie so he used one of his own
children just like President What's His Name? does.
One has to wonder
if the American people will find Christie too much to stomach or
if they'll view him as one of their own and rejoice in a Cheeto-eating
fool being elected to office in 2016 should he be able to run,
er, shuffle for office.
Honey Boo Boo was
asked for a comment on this subject but her mother interceded
and said "Honey is enjoying that third bucket and is too
busy to comment." |
