I think New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is IMAO’s favorite current politician. Here he is taking on some teacher complaining about her current pay when the state is going bankrupt:
Who would think that the reddest meat would come from one of the bluest states? Christie just eats liberal whiners for breakfast — along with three pounds of bacon (he’s fat). Here’s some liberal reporter whining to him:
And the guy is just going after the budget with a chainsaw, and he doesn’t care who complains about it. When he’s done, the only thing bloated in New Jersey government will be him (he’s fat).
I don’t know why we can’t find more like him. He’s like twice the fiscal conservative of any other politicians out there — which isn’t particularly efficient since he’s three times the size (why can’t I stop doing fat jokes!).
Anyway, when thinking about the future of the Republican Party, we really should keep an eye on Chris Christie — which is easy to do since he’s pretty hard to miss (I can’t help myself!).
He reminds me of Reagan yelling “shut up!” to a heckler in 1980.
It’s always sad when we have to celebrate a politician standing up for conservative values.
If he can get Sarah Palin to recline at his side wearing a metal bikini he’d definitely lock in the Star Wars nerd vote.
Chris Christie/Eric Esch 2012!
Christie has caught the attention of the liberal blogs, being described as “mean” and “scary”. I prefer the term “He has a set”, something usually not found in a Republican.
What this country needs is 49 more governors and 1 president just like him.
Yeah but, Frank, he’s not “fatty fatty fat fat” so he’s OK. He’s just ‘big boned.’
Wow. I’ve never hear of him before yesterday when you mentioned him. Nice video.
He is pleasantly fluffy.
You better cut out the fat jokes Frank, or he’ll come over and fall on you. Think of a very hefty Fred Thompson. I bet when Christie punches a hippie, the hippie lands in Ohio.
He’s a politician yet he’s telling the truth and doing what he promised he’d do…so liberals are scared and confused.
Per unit he is maybe the most conservative leader in the country. Pound for Pound there lots of skinny conservative women who have him beat. Either way I love a big sandwich of vocal and able conservatives.
can a fat man be president? taft was pretty fat i think
This guy is amazing. We should be able to rate this post 15 stars just because of all of the fat jokes.
That he does – and when you have good tools you want to build a nice shed over them.
Chris Christie is awesome!
If he doesn’t run in 2012, I will write his name in.
Whatever Christie has been eating, it should be force fed to every other GOP politician.
I think the best part about this guy is that he’s scandal proof… no one wants to have an extramarital affair with this guy.
He has me wondering whether I should have moved to New Jersey, instead of to Iowa. Think of what it takes to do that.
At least Christie can lose the fat around his waist. Not so easy for the likes of Obummer, Pelosi, and Biden to lose the fat in their heads…
If Christie becomes president, does that mean we have to stop telling Michael Moore & Rob Reiner fat jokes?
The more I see of Christie, the more I like him. Didja catch the story about him vetoing the state budget **2 minutes** after it was passed?
He seems to have a big future.
He casts a long shadow ( wide too!)
I would want to get on his bad side (or his other side or his other side or .. the man has more sides than an octagonal barn)
We are definitely gonna need a big tent now.
the man’s got some big shoes to fill. (as well as socks and undershirts)
He would stick a toe in the water for a presidential bid…… If he could see them.
If he runs for president and wins we can call him “the oval officer”.
The only scandal he has to worry about involves an earmark for Lil’ Debbies.
There’s more of him?!
Well, we certainly will, although from what I understand, catz don’t see things well unless they are moving.
Christie doesn’t move, he orbits.
union slug: we want a raise
chris Christie: Get in my belly!
You could say he likes to “throw his weight around”. Love the guy!!
Oh, by the way, I love how that lib teacher complains about how she’s not making enough money, then tries to pull out the “We do it because we love it” line. Well, if it’s not about money and she does it because she loves it, why does she bitching about needing a raise?
You could say he’s throwing his weight around. We can only hope there’s plenty more where that came from.
To use the internet meme, this guy is just full of pure win.
… also bacon.
I’d rather have a heavy set man with integrity running my country (business, city ……pick an entity) than a skinny, weaselly, corruptacrat ……………….oh that’s what we have now. Dang. Gov. Cristi would come to Washington and put the country out of it’s misery by tying Rahm and Co. into little skinny pretzels. If you dip them in Chocolate and ship them to Indonesia we might not see them for a good long time.
I’m not a conspiracy loon, but the establishment will come together to fight this. The “Business As Usual” crowd will close ranks to defend the status quo against upstarts like this. Unless he’s not really an upstart, that is.
I fear New Jersey may have awakened a sleeping giant and filled him with a great resolve… and some ham.
12. Mack: Yeah, Taft was a sphere.
He’s not twice the fiscal conservative of Mitch Daniels. I’ll concede that he’s twice the conservative, after all Mitch is just a skinny little guy.
If Chris Christie looked like Putin I might suspect he was Mitch Daniels in a fat suit. Has anyone ever seen the two at the same place at the same time? Christie and Daniels I mean, although I don’t think Daniels and Putin have ever been seen together either. And they bear a suspicious resemblence.
BTW, I would love to see an IMW where obama visits Indiana and confuses Daniels for Putin. Or is that too much like something obama would actually do to be a good IMW? I’ll leave it up to Frank.
“How’s it going Mr. Christie?”
“It’s a dog eat dog world, Woody and I’m wearing Milk Bone underwear.”
Does the guy remind anyone else of the guy from The King of Queens?
It’s like we elected Doug Heffernen governor of New Jersey. Plus this guy is awesome and I hope will be president someday.
There once was a governor named christie,
He was definitely not part of the limp wristy,
While the lefties were busy giving catcalls,
He nonetheless had them by the balls,
And upon their graves he will do the twisty.
As a past teacher’s union president: I love this guy!
Well there are surgical procedures available and probably both are covered under the HC bill. But the problem is: Can you do liposuction within a skull without performing a lobotomy? Yes I’m aware its possible if there’s no brain matter to suck out with the fat but wouldn’t it be incredibly awesome if you could suck out the liberal fat and leave the brain (assuming there were still functional cells left) intact inside the skull – in theory you could suck the liberal out of them?? Yes? No? Wait. What? Why are we taxpayers footing the bill for this surgery. Now if only doing this lipo-liberalobotomy or (lipoliberalobamalobotomy – that sounds more scientific right?) on Skeletor and have it work as plastic surgery – suck the liberal out of her brain – infuse the hell out of it with botox which is poisonous kill off the liberal bits leaving nothing but pure fat, inject the botox filled fat into her face so he looks less like a creature out of a horror movie and more like a human even if she has no brain left. Maybe she could look like a turnip instead – a nice braindead pasty white veggie.
Then again maybe not. I still think lipoliberalobamalobotomy sounds like a really good surgical procedure name – even if its done with a .45 caliber hollow point.
I’m somewhat disappointed in the personal attacks directed at the Governor. The left seem to be unable to help themselves in the mocking and ridiculing of others but I thought better of those on the right. It’s not the first time I’ve been disappointed and it won’t be the last. Maybe we should elect someone like say………………….BIll Maher, after all he has opinions, he’s thin, he probably could give a decent speech (it would be full of lies, distortions and falsehoods-but we have that now) and he still has his own hair. After all it’s looking good and being fit that qualifies you to be (choose a position in the government), not what you intend to do.
And yes I know it’s supposed to be funny, but let someone call your loved one fat, ugly, stupid or a ‘ho and see how far your objectivity really stretches. I kind of thought we were better than that. My bad.
IOTW has taken quite a shining to this posts’ title. So, will the mashup be IOTWIMAO or IMAOIOTW?
Everything for everyone and nothing for ourselves!
OMG. Never posted here before after a long time lurking around but couldn’t help but comment on this guy. I can’t wait to vote for Christie, hope he makes it out of Jersey. I’ll be keeping an eye out for him and link these videos to my “right”eous friends.
#2 made me rofl.
Finally, a pol who seems to realize as ‘normal people’ do that, when you compromise between a good idea and a bad idea, you get a half-assed idea.
Bad ideas, dysfunctional ideas, deserve no goddam compromise, only scorn and derision.
Would you fly in a plane built by a company which made sure all the poor engineering had an “equal seat at the table” with the good engineering?
Hell, no.
I hope he runs for President just so we can see a debate between him and Obama. Never in the history of the world will there be a more stark visible and philosophical contrast between two people on one stage.
I told you all about this guy months ago. Sadly, the race for president is half beauty contest these days. You can’t even be bald, or have facial hair, let alone look like the Hindenburg, which coincidentally blew up in New Jersey.
Since when does size matter? He’s working for us not against us and that alone is quite refreshing!
SeanMohair: We’re not telling fat jokes to mock him. We’re telling fat jokes to deny ammo to the tolerant left, who believe that obesity is something you should just accept, and love the person for it, unless they’re a hateful Republican hater who hates, in which case tolerance doesn’t apply.
Since I’m not a tolerant type, I can call Christie fat. Also, libtards are disgusting slime who are ruining this country.
That’s about as tolerant as I get.
