It has become quite clear that Chris Christie is getting a bit testy when anyone dares to ask him questions that he doesn't feel that he should have to answer. Of course, he did have a good learning ground as his old boss George W. Bush also got quite defensive when asked about things that were (1) uncomfortable and (2) gave the appearance of "smoke and fire".
It is also too bad that these questions are legitimate questions about him, his past and how he would govern if elected. We know that he doesn't like being asked about his no-bid deals with his former employer or how he was appointed as US Attorney after he and his brother raised hundreds of thousands for Bush or how he found himself on and then off the list of US attorneys to be fired after a bogus investigation into Senator Menendez or how he only wants to criticize but won't offer any specifics of how he would govern or how he won't discuss what budget cuts he would make or how he gave a no-bid deal to the US Attorney who decided not to prosecute his brother for securities fraud or how he proudly accepted the endorsement of a disgraced mayor who used NYC taxpayer dollars for his private errands and purposes.
Just to name a few things that have come out over the past couple of months.
Luckily, we were able to obtain a secret list of pre-approved questions and issues which are not off limits that Christie will discuss:
What Christie's favorite color is and how it has evolved since his childhood;
Whether the designated hitter rule is good for or bad for the game of baseball;
How low he will cut property and corporate taxes (PLEASE NOTE: there are no follow ups allowed to this);
Why Yoo-Hoo! is better than Quik;
Whether the use of "wild cards" ruins the spirit and purity of poker games;
Who is a bigger poopyhead - Jon Corzine or Steve Lonegan;
Why a tree falling in the forest still makes a sound even if nobody is around to hear it;
Whether Superman would beat the Hulk in a fight;
Why college football should have a tournament instead of the BCS rankings;
Why the title of "#1 dad" is justified for him but not those other "posers with the t-shirts"; and
How only Christie can unleash the "incredible power of awesomeness" to transform the state into a money making machine where nobody pays any taxes or fees, and every street has rainbows, unicorns and pots of gold.
