An Open Letter to Chris Chistie

January 08, 2014 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Hey Chris,

How’s it going?

Well, that was probably the wrong way to start.  You ain’t having a star spangled day, right?

I just read this at CNN.

E-mails emerged on Wednesday purportedly from top aides to New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie bolstering suggestions that George Washington Bridge lane closures last year that tied up traffic stemmed from a political vendetta and not bureaucratic incompetence as his administration claimed.

I know you want to be president one day and people generally don’t mind political vendettas.  In fact, most folks kinda enjoy them.

Except, of damn course, when it means they have to pay for it by sitting in damn traffic which you damn caused.  That’s when they say, “Well, Damn Chris Christie.  He ain’t sitting his bohunkus in this traffic.”

And, you know about that whole The Buck Stops Here thing?  Dude, you missed the bus.  You’re so out there that you won’t get the Today Show until tomorrow.

Christie said in a statement that “what I’ve seen today is unacceptable,” adding that he was “misled by a member of his staff” and knew nothing about what had transpired.

Now how long did that take you?

Sweetie, I could have told you two months ago before all this started that you cannot trust Republicans.  Most of them lie so much that they have to hire someone to call the dogs.  Hell, they’ll lie when the truth makes a better story.  Sometimes they lie just to stay in practice.

A source close to Christie said “there will probably be some sacrificial firing and that’ll be it.”

Come clean or go home, Darlin’.  People won’t mind if you mess around on your wife, if you start a war just for the helluva it, or scream You Lie at the State of the Union Address.  You’ll still be reelected.  But, traffic.  Well, that’s a whole ‘nother ball of wax.

And, by the way, when are public officials going to learn that emails from the office belong to the public?  Seriously, didn’t you learn anything from Jack Abramoff?

Love and Fried Okra,
Juanita Jean Herownself
