Go Christie!!!!!!!

Boehner should lose the Speaker position for this. He is incapable of decent leadership.

My thoughts exactly MissesM.

Obviously Boehner was the onlt person who read past the title....

http://politicaloutcast.com/2012/12/obamas-sandy-relief-bill-filled-with-pork-barrel-projects/#ixzz2GpnxAnOT

We don't need new cars for Homeland Security, roof repairs on the smithsonian, restocking fisheries in Mississippi and Alaska, trees planted on private land. Only a small fraction of the money in this bill is going for Sandy Relief.

Does anyone read before they comment OR VOTE?????

Boehner should be FIRED! He puts his own self serving interests and politics ahead of the needs of the people. It is a damn shame what is going on in DC. The world is watching and it is truly pitiful

Chris Christie should be president of this country. Our whole country needs him! He has what it takes to staighten this country out! We are so proud to have him as our governor right now. Best governor NJ seen in a long time.

To all the people effected, my thought and prayers are that you get the aid you so deserve..Mr. Christie has taken no politcal side, just the side of the people. As it should be. Go Christie!!

The deal was a sham. Another disgusting democrat ploy for votes by increasing and penalizing people who are successful. I'm a college student who works part time and personally I'm insulted by this grossly negligent governing body. All are guilty! Where is the American dream?! Where is the fiscal responsibility?!!!!

Gov. Christie, thank you for fighting for the people affected by Sandy. You would think Pres. Obama would have made sure this was taken care of before he jetted back to Hawaii yesterday. But then again he was re-elected so "out of sight, out of mind". I seriously think you are the only GOP choice for 2016. Please think about it!

How I wish our governor runs for president,he has been a good governor and would be a good man to run our country

The Bill is as bloated as Christie. If anyone is to blame it is the politicians that added spending unrelated to Sandy to the bill. Politicians are out of control spending YOUR money. Don't allow the govt run media to give you half a story in a misleading headline. They're not on the side of the people.

Why should Republicans care about the people of NJ or NY when they overwhelmingly vote Democrat in every election.

Where's the money Springsteen and the rest raised? Where's the money Mrs. Christie raised??

Christie desperately needs that money to hide his budget holes.....his NJ comeback is a bigger disaster than Sandy

Sorry Chris, You Lose !

True leaders speak up and dont hide.
Yes ,,,he is a true leader.

I lost my home on the barrier island and applied for an SBA loan weeks ago. I was just contacted and told in order to get this loan, I would need " Wind Insurance ". Maybe I should go to visit Congress, as it seems that there are excess winds up there !

I agree he should be president he speaks his mind and takes no crap that's exacting what this country needs. And as far as the speaker we need him out he thinks or acts like he is above everyone else and the reason all the crap in congress is going on.

If it in fact true that other items were added to this bill, I am glad GOP did not vote. Before you read the wrong thing into that, let me ask, why can' t it just cover money for sandy? Why must Congress add all the secret items to a bill? To me that is just dishonest.

Boner needs to go!

New Orleans got 106 billion dollars and New Jersey only got 50 billion dollars. I wonder why?

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-01-02/total-debt-1643273005056912-debt-gdp-103#comments

Obama don't care, he's vacationing in Hawaii again on America's tab.

Well people on here better wake up to the rest of the country. A poll on the conservative blog "Drudge Report" is polling almost 2 to 1 against the relief bill...

http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2013/01/02/lawmakers-outraged-after-house-gop-scraps-vote-on-sandy-aid/

brick surfer well said u hit the nail on the head, bud to much gov up our butts get rid of all the and bring in new blood the elections were a sham stop looking for everything for nothing and go to work.

go christy

Governor Chris Christie for President ! Yes he should run for president. I am a Jersey girl. Love New York too we pay the highest in taxes. And I support Christie! Cookycandy

Christie is the governor of a blue state and he's up for re-election this year. Oh, what a surprise that he's trying to get much needed funds for Sandy recovery. I'm shocked, shocked I tells you. He probably warned the GOP leaders that he would have to put on this performance.

People in the rest of the country do not want this. When does this sink in to you.

I know what people lost and how homeless they are but the rest of the country does not see this as their obligation, and they are right.

Your homes should have been insured for flood loss, they were not. We move on.

Is the boardwalk in any town so important that the goverment of the USA needs to get further in debt to pay for it. Will life go on of they do not choose to do so.

There is an implied risk to living along the coast and various shorelines.That is why these homes were never worth this much many years ago.

If the money is to fix bridges and general infrastructure so be it, but not to replace your 1989 bedroom set and bungalow. Or to pay for the padded overtime submitted by these towns and agencys.

Second, third and fourth that motion:)

sounds like the rest of the country doesnt like NY/NJ, does not trust NY/NJ with money or BOTH....

Wake Up Call ......

As an Independent, I have never liked Christie until now, actually since the Hurricane, he has been excellent as a leader during the time of need. I've done a complete 360 on this man. I don't want him running for President, I want him to stay here in Jersey and continue taking care of business here. If he were to be President, I think it would be our loss. Can't believe I'm actually typing these words.

Well, I will have to go with the bigboy onthis one, he has exceeded my expectations since the storm. Bravo. No wonder why booker doesnt want to run against him. And screw the Tea Bags, if he wants to hug Obama, good forhim. No, I am not an Obama supporter.

Thank god I never grew up either. It's like a scene from a high school prom where we elect a prom king and adore him with pompous pagent. oops. I don't see Christie as president. he's a good governor in a corrupt state tho, so on second thought may be he'd fit right in. Until we the people take the power from these few oh so corruptable senators reps etc..., we are always gonna be sold down the river. Et tu brutus the bunch of them. lol..

WQW, how you all and Christie are being played. You have sleazy Senators sneaking extra money for their states at our expense while their friends in the media cover that fact up. Don't forget the media paints a pretty picture of NJ as the home of crooked politicians who steal, the Sopranos, Snookie, and Sandy victims as elitist 1%ers who lost their multimillion dollar vacation homes and have no place to sip martinis while watching the ocean. I have no use for Boehner but I am able to read (unlike most politicians and their supporters) and understand he is by no means the only one culpable.

Oh well! http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/01/02/house-adjourns-current-term-without-voting-on-sandy-aid-bill/

Christie got left hanging like the fat kid on the playground. Did I hear him right he thinks Cantor is working his hardest to help NJ ????? He is either having a diabetic drop or is a dope. Cantor gets in charge and NJ will not see a penny !

Let me say this to all of your posts!!!! I am still displaced by sandy here in our barrier island. I yes am living in A hotel still with my family! You who say insurance obviously you are not dealing with this. I have wind,flood,content and much more on our home! Still to this day not A dime. Let me tell you this also, our governor has been incredible for putting politics aside and stepped up for us the people who are and still are devastated! And let me say this! This is our primary home no second vacation home and many of us are still displaced! I am sure the politicians and you wms826 after reading your post never had to live in A hotel with your family. Where you can not have A family dinner in your home with your children. YOU WMS826 DIDN'T HAVE THE FLOOR IN YOUR HOME BE PUSHED UP FROM THE WATER! wms826 do not speak for the country and you keep sending your taxes in for the people overseas to get help and us who are devastated get no help! I hope your new years eve dinner was well and your christmas because thousands of us stood proud and still displaced and yes have insurance are still waiting

When the tornadoes ravish the midwest and south west when the earthquakes in california,haiti, and many more. When the tsunami hit America was there however now super storm sandy hits us and our government turns there back. I ask all effected stand up this tax year and do not pay!! Obama went back to hawaii and biden's sister in law lives here on our barrier island and nothing nothing nothing. Lets wake. We need help and our government walked away!

Hey Ray!
Sorry you only posted once. I was hoping to read some more because you have it right. I think we're all basically on the same page here, I mean how could we disagree when it comes to these Ivory Tower-style CROOKS, who have sent this country into a major tail spin?

Even the conservative talk show hosts have had it with Boehner. Resorting to both him and Pelosi, we went from the fire into the frying pan. (not the other way around)
He has become a latter-day Benedict Arnold.

I was never a fan of Christie. After Sandy hit, I developed a new respect for this man who put politics aside to help the citizens of this state. This is the thanks he gets from his party. If I were him, I would tell the Republican Party to shove it and turn Independent immediately. The Republicans have no interest in helping New Jersey or New York. Who cares about pork -- pork has been included in bills, Republican and Democratic -- since the beginning of time. It's all politics at the expense of suffering people.

House speaker is and will always be a douchebag

All politicians are douche bags. Who cares about pork? How do you think our country is where its at? We are in the problem from all the lies and extra pork for decades. This country has become a joke because of these douchbags who are running and ruining our country.

Tornado damage is nothing compared to this and the cost of doing business in New Jersey. The density of buildings and people cannot be compared to anywhere else.

If I lived near the water I would have flood insurance, sorry you failed to do so. So now I guess we all have to pick up the tab while you saved money all the years you failed to have it.

A boardwalk is not an essential piece of infrastructure to any town. It might help people rent their investment homes out more easier but that is about it. A couple of pizzerias make money a few months a year from it and then close by now. No real shot to the Ecconomy since it is all cash that little of it is declared. How does Florida survive without a boardwalk.

This is a homeowners problem. Always was until FEMA became a household word after Katrina. Let the homeowners of Belmar build the boardwalk if it is so vital to their survival. You pay for your own private community and beaches that no one else is allowed to use.

Christie is fighting because the millions he gets from the boardwalk from what they declare. So yes...Christie needs them! Does the town need them? I would say "NO" Let's face it, like so many have said if NJ wasn't hit so hard by this storm, everyone in NJ would be bitching about this pork package being passed. It is always different when the shoe is on a different shoe.

@msteel: Racist much?

Unbelievable, the comments here are so upsetting. Come down and see what has happened. The bulk of people who live here are not 1 percenters. It's not about boardwalks. The people who lost EVERYTHING are normal, hardworking people. Come to Union Beach, Pt Pleasant, Highlands, Sea Bright, Sea Side and all the towns along the beach. After you have done that then you deserve to comment. Normal every day people have lost everything... Small business has taken an awful hit.
It is so upsetting that the Jersey Shore is getting screwed . We have lived here forever. Gone thru many, many storms. This was unprecedented . My family has been here goiing back probably 100 years. This has NEVER happened before.
Please think before you write. You have no idea about the hurt you are causing.
The Congress should be ashamed. We still have everyday normal people, not millionaires, who have no homes, people without electricity , and no place to go.
Why are we different from those in New Orleans and else where ????
Unbelievable that we live in this country, where everything is supposed to be possible.
Believe me when I say not everyone who lives on our beautiful coast is rich. Most live here for its beauty and for no other reason.

I just said it to my spouse the other night - Christie is a great guy with the wrong political party affilitaion.. It has taken half of the Republican team to figure out what we Dems already knew The Republicans are selfish and inhumane. We knew that; now they know that as well. Where are all the liberal bashers now? Boehner is an embarrassment to the party.

I see all the whiners here licking their chops for more free money from Uncle Sam. Our big gov. is nothing but a loudmouth and useless tool for more big government . If he spent half as much time trying to fix our problems as he does attacking people , this state might be better off. This RINO has to stay away from the lunch truck !

I Beleive our Governor is doing the right thing by us.
To those of you who continue to post insults at him: He goes after the unions, you insult him. He calls out our judiciary for excluding themselves from paying more for benefits, you insult him. He man tells us the State does not have the money to continue doling out for different things, you insult him. He calls out the US Speaker of the House (a fellow Republican) for doing NY and NJ wrong, and you insult him. Can I ask - What do you want from him?
For others here - Obama won re-election, the people have spoken. We wanted a President who will make the rich pay their "fair share". Now all of us rich and middle class will pay more. He gave us Obamacare, although I have never heard of a hospital turning away anyone that could not pay (I think that was called Charity Care). So let's see where unemployment, our pockets and the national debt are at the end of 2013. If you are getting a free ride on the rest of us, just disregard this because it would not bother you anyway.
As far as our Boehner goes, he was a creator of the Contract with America. Im sure if you look at it, you will see he basically threw it in the can.
Whether its Obama, Boehner or Reid (Dems or Repubs), I'm sure they could not care less about our opinions, as long as they give their people what they want the result is them same - They have been or will be reelected. Just like our elected officials here. Its what we the people want, in my opinion.

Our government (both parties) agree to send billions and billions of dollars to Haiti and other countries every year but they can't help our own states in need? Are they kidding me!!?? This has gotten way out of control, is despicable, disgusting, irrational, and is harmful to our entire economy. And it is a disgrace if the $60 billion has loopholes and other "non-Sandy relief" dollars in it. That's what they did with obamacare. Behind closed doors they passed a 2,000 page document that is filled with garbage, more hidden taxes and fees, and political favors. Big government has a poor track record of running businesses - Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Medicare, Medicaid, the US Post Office - filled with corruption, on the verge of bankruptcy or bankrupt already! And they think they can take over our entire healthcare system??!! That's crazy! Most (not all) politicians are corrupt and have a self-serving need to be "politically correct" in one way or another. Gov Christie is the first one who is not afraid to tell it like it is, and stand up for the right things. He is a strong leader, good for NJ and he will be good for our country. Boehner, Pelosi, Reid, and all who were responsible for this debacle should be ashamed of themselves and should be removed from office.

Boehner should have never been placed as the speaker!! He is an emotional wreck & incapable of making reasonable decisions...Thank God we have a Governor that will stand up for the citizens of New Jersey...A man that is by the people..

Boehner has failed and needs to go now. Washington politics at its best. Human Life in the back seat as Politics prevail. Thank You Gov. Christie for caring about all the people no matter what party, affected by Superstorm Sandy.

I used to hate this man with a passion, then when Sandy hit he showed true compassion towards NJ residents, im a democrat, but the way Christie has been since the storm, hes not playing republican Gov, hes playing Gov. Of New Jersey.

i have lived at the shore my entire adult life and dont understand why folks think the government should pay for their homes. does anyone take responsibility for their own lives anymore ? it is our "choice" to live on an "island", our choice to live near the ocean/bay knowing at some point a hurricane or flood will likely happen, our responsibility to prepare and "insure" our assets properly, not my neighbors, not the town nor the government. infrastructure surley, roads and bridges yes, utilities absolutely, but private property, never. we have become an "entitlement" society, a "you owe me" people. gone are the days when we built our own dreams, homes and lives. people used to take responsibility seriously, didnt look for handouts and free lunches. we worked hard and long and if we couldnt afford something we either worked harder and longer or did without, but we were happy, content and proud. the government doesnt owe us anything in regards to private property. maybe low or no interest loans to "assist" in rebuilding but no free lunches. many homes at the shore are second homes as well. people should have had enough insurance themselves considering the location we choose to live. all i ask is for everyone to stop and think and be integral with yourself and take responsibility for their own choices. my family has lost a lot but we do not expect anyone including the government to pay our way. we will rebuild, we will move on and we will pay our own way. thx for listening....

Can anyone please post something that Christie has actually done in regards to Sandy recovery? I mean, other than photo ops and speeches. He has not streamlined any processes. He has not gotten rid of any red tape. He has not channelled any funding, he has not made anything happen any faster than it's normal process.

What has he actually done to get people so happy with his work? I truly want to know.

The rest of the country does not like NJ. Could be racism. Could be they are jealous. Could be the they hate Wall Street. Could be they hate Jersey Shore. Or could be like me. They hate this corrupt cesspool of power brokers.
Those of you who are now big fans of CC because he yelled at Boehner. Do you really think you are going to see that money ??? You think you will get any help from state , county or town. You are so far down the totem pole from getting that money.

msteel:Love your post, miss you come back home, they tripled the tolls now, you could help pay your way in NJ...LMAO in TR...needed a good laugh after days of removing sheet rock, water , and helping Vets effected by Sandy...stay strong" Jersey Shore", but I'm afraid you're on our own..till the "Pigs Fly "

The Tea Party is the toxic group in Congress. The rest of them (the GOP) know it but they need to guts to take them on. Either they take on this lousy group of idealogues, or the Party goes down. I am a Democrat so if it is the end of the Republican Party, I can live with it. But there are good Republicans with good ideas and a lot to offer, but they are shooting themselves in the foot if they will not stand up to this extreme right. I have heard Tea Partyers speak - they don't know anything - that is the problem Like Sarah Palin, like Crhistine (I am not a witch) they simply don't know anything and should not be in any position of power. We are at the mercy of people who take a stand based on nothing. It is toxic, Christie and it is your party. I admire the fact that he is speaking out against his own sick party.

Republican or Democrat..Black or White..It does not matter..What matters is that someone get these people that lost everything in this bitch storm the help they need!! It upsets me so much that the government cannot get their collective S together and do it already!

Msteel is not racist, he just makes racist comments like "....how wonderful Jersey was to grow up before it got over run by illegal third world parasites and criminals." We have all colors and sizes and shapes of criminals in NJ but this jerk only talks about third world parasites. That's how people used to talk about Italian-Americans in the early 1900s or the Irish in the 1800s. He singles out the Asian Indians for some horrible comments as if only Asian Indians cheat people. OK, he's not racist, he's a narrow minded bigot. Why even mention their ethnicity. Cheaters come in all races and colors, why even mention that they are Asian Indian? I rarely accuse anyone of being racist unless they make obvious bigoted statements llike msteel's.

Well we send releif money to every other country that has a disaster Hatiti , Japan , ect. Where us the LOVE for the local people who lost everything ?I am tired of reading from the folks who are hardhearted on this subject. In response to those like hardworker I would guess your home or your fanilys were spared I would guess you would be howling if you suffered some loss. Me I came thru sandy without a loss but I have feelings and need to look no farther than my neighbors suffering. THIS IS AMERICA WHERE WE ALL COME TOGETHER WHEN DISASTER HITS.

The people who are bitterly complaining about giving aid to the poor folks on the NJ shore, would be the first to scream for aid and help if some natural disaster struck their inland community. This seems to happen after almost every natural disaster anywhere in the country. Nasty, heartless, unempathetic people who don't give a damn about the larger community, who have tunnel vision and don't seem to be aware that a natural disaster could wipe out their community, too. Or is this just a function of the blogosphere or internetosphere where people say the most horrible garbage and can vent their spleens with impunity?

Ah Penny Lane, how many times can you spell 'Republican' incorrectly?....must be a "Democrot".......lol......And here in lies the problem with America....everyone just looks for the 'D' or the 'R' and votes.....people should be required to pass a test to enter the voting booth.

Well, I guess we have a dialogue. Always fun the way the lunatic fringe tosses out statistics and hatred. If their statements are investigated the genuine basis of their arguments usually amounts to, "because." While we, the electorate, go on and on about this group or that group and who's fault all this happens to be, the villany continues in the halls of power. Have you ever heard of Grover Norquist? The guy whose "pledge" the majority of House members signed? Who elected this guy? Not me, not you. None of us. Yet he and his associates are running our government. These are the people we need to be looking at. The government is being run by people we never heard of. What kind of representative form of government is this?
I'm afraid these agents have no interest in our brothers and sisters who continue suffering as the result of Sandy. Good luck to us all
Jim Arthur

NJ taxpayers are taxed to death with the highest combined taxes in the country. Governor Christie, where does all of this money actually go? As a federal taxpayer, why should I have to subsidize the billionaires of Mantoloking? Don't they pay insurance premiums as I do?

Gov. Christie is not doing all he can do for the Jersey Shore. He gave a speech at the Port Monmouth firehouse over a month ago in Middletown Township. He had the balls to tell the residents they would get the help they need and not be forgotten. As of this date, nothing has been done to help the residents there. The Township has stopped all the home rebuilding with a lame excuse of needing more info from FEMA concerning the flood elevations. The flood elevations were already done before Sandy. Sandy isn't figured into the flood plans and maps. Also, Sandy was an anomoly. It was not your normal hurricane in the area affected.
My daughter, who lives in Belford but was not affected by the flooding has been fighting with the Township for help for the residents along the bayshore. The township has ignored everything that was requested of them. Volunteers were turned away with the excuse that the Township was fine and needed no help. To be perfectly honest, I do not live in NJ. I did until 12 years ago when I retired. I still have friends and family in NJ, in the areas hard hit by Sandy. The one thing I am dissappointed in, is the residents that were hard hit by Sandy, but won't go after the Township and the politicians to get the assistance the Township should be providing.

I see the usual hypocrisy on these boards. My "free speech" was deleted simply for telling the truth. America you are a lost nation. You are going off into compete and total destruction and there will be no return. You are a cowardly generation who do nothing but parrot back what you're told to parrot back. All your wisdom comes from the popular opinion as given you in the media. You are incapable of forming your own opinions and thinking for yourselves. If this were not true you would have stopped voting the same ole lying, deceiving bull shitters back into office year after year. HOW MANY TIMES MORE WILL YOU HIT YOURSELVES IN THE HEAD WITH A HAMMER BEFORE YOU REALIZE IT HURTS!

@Oppressed by Princeton Leftists: By poor, I was not referring to economic status. Poor in the sense that they were victims of a terrible natural disaster. People who had their communities wiped out, erased, they lost everything. Most of these people are overwhelmingly ordinary middle class folks, they are not all millionaires, they are not all economically poor. What's the matter Oppressed by Princeton Leftists, are you jealous of the billionaires at Mantoloking? Are you envious of them? Why do you hate success, why do you hate the job creators? Why do you hate the capitalists who create jobs (in commie China)? Why do you hate capitalism? Didn't you know that the filthy rich can get to rip us off with impunity?

Christie waddled around the country, passionately stumping for Mittens Romney who campaigned on dissolving FEMA and also raised money for Iowa's Steve King who campaigned on not approving ANY Sandy assistance. So, Christie cannot be trusted any farther than you can throw him. http://t.co/wyqIpZN3

Glad that the Governor spoke out against the crazies. I hope he also re-evaluates who he raises money for in the future and the next time one of the right wing extremists in Congress wants him to headline their fundraiser, he does not take their phone call. You can't raise money that helps some of these nuts get elected and than be suprised when they refuse to help the people in your state in their time of need.

@Oppressed by Princeton Leftists: I thought all the rich people fled NJ because of the property taxes? Don't they pay property taxes in Mantoloking? I thought the rich people were leaving NJ in great hordes, clogging the NJ Turnpike with their BMWs, Lexuses and Mercedes-Benzes; columns of luxury cars for miles as far as th eye can see, escaping the evil clutches of NJ Princeton liberals, those evil liberals.

How the House crazies in Washington got screwed: When Boehner proposed "Plan B" , the nuts wouldn't go along with it, so Boehner dumped the whole matter into the lap of the Senate(FYI- the House is the body that writes bills for appropriations as directed by the Constitution) That had to have pissed off the Senate, including Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. As a result they wrote the bill giving Obama about everything he wanted, and sticking it to the House crazies...who then went ballistic when they read it and saw the Senate vote(89-8)...

How is Christies Jersey Comeback working out for NJ ?

How is 2% cap helping homeowners with their property taxes ?

How much of the 75 million AG Bank settlement did Christie give to homeowners frauded by banks ?

How much do you think the broke state, broke counties and broke town are going to give homeowners who have lost from Sandy ?

2 CHRONICLES 7:14

Read it and heed it.

No Parties - Very good point!!! Who can get us out of it? You're correct, no one has even bothered to raise that point because they're too busy fighting and carrying on about trivial matters.

The fact remains: God can, but we NEVER hear that do we?

Isn't the solution obvious? More guns. If only the shore residents had been armed with UZIs and fully automatic weapons (sadly now banned in NJ and many other states), none of this would have happened. A well-armed militia, err, populace can meet force with force and shoot the heck out of any hurricane that dared to attack NJ shore areas and beyond. If only all the people in Mantoloking had been armed with semi-automatics, automatics, high capacity magazines and drums, tragedy could have been avoided. It's all in the 2nd amendment, original intent and all that good stuff. All types of guns must be legalized and available to all NRA loving residents anywhere who are deemed sane, rational and non felonious by Wayne LaPierre.

Laura - believe me, I don't need to try. I just do, and, the problem in this country is the many who do not! Fortunately for us all, there are many, many who do.

I wish I could explain why so many of you are anti-Christian, even anti-God.
