I voted slightly agree on that one.

Same here. Strongly would imply that other people's lives mean nothing, or something to that effect.

I got 78% conservative and 22 Liberal because I dogs more than cats, I think borders are cool and I prefer Times Square to the Met.....I am 50/50 because I think both sides suck balls.

I'll take it.

So all the liberals in my Facebook feed are freaking the hell out over this Christie thing. It's insane. I know conservatives can tend to go apeshit over minor things, but looks like manh liberals have been waiting for something negative to say about Christie.

That's because über partisan people freak the freak out.  Über cons think it's a liberal problem.  über libs think it's a conservative problem.  Meanwhile, the country continues to get more fucked up because all they really want to do is find a way to demonize the other side.

I realize this more and more as I get older. I spent 8 years defending Bush on a bunch of little excrement only to watch the right do the exact same thing to Obama. It's sickening. If anything Christie is the one guy many liberals could get behind, but that R in his name makes it impossible, lest they end up looking like backward racists.

In my experience, the racist term has primarily been tossed around when the target can't think of an actual reason he hates Obama.  I've mostly just seen people claiming they're not allowed to hate him because they'll be called racist.

The only thing this traffic thing reflects now is that Christie might not always have the best judgment choosing staffers.

If it comes out that he knew about it/was behind it, I think it's a story that will stick with him, however bizarre it might seem. It just reads so straightforward - he did something bad to innocent people cause he didn't like their mayor - that it's easy for it to get traction.

If no one uncovers anything that shows he was aware of it, I think it blows over relatively easily.

Edit: Also, disliking 'fusion' food makes me a conservative? Fusion is freaking tacky, snobby liberal elitists like me have no time for that excrement. (64% conservative for me).

Well it was some flunky that did it, they have the emails to prove it. So in a few weeks he will apologize, some of his life long friends will be fired, routine stuff, yawn. Oh wait didn't that already happen?
