When Snooki Met Christie
By Simon van Zuylen-Wood 5/24/2013
Comments 4
This is reality television. After a Today show appearance in Seaside Heights in which his wife pretended he wasn't running for president, Chris Christie finally met his biggest enemy: Nicole Snooki Polizzi. The two have twitter-feuded because he thinks the show is dumb. He also single-handedly denied the show a half-million bucks. Because he thinks the show is dumb.
Here's the Unofficial Transcript of the landmark exchange, captured on video by the Asbury Park Press:
Snooki: Why are you standing so close to me?
Christie: Someone asked me my opinion...
Christie leans in extra-close, trying to be goofy.
Snooki can't suppress a smile.
Other woman I don't recognize: I'm from

Get ready for another round of Chris Christie and Barack Obama walking side-by-side, pointing at stuff and shaking hands. The president will touch down on Tuesday for a post-Memorial Day visit to the Jersey Shore, his first since Hurricane Sandy. He'll be meeting with business and homeowners affected by the storm. And igniting another tired debate about Chris Christie's political ambitions and treasonous behavior towards the Republican party. [Politico]
Chris Christie: No Link Between Climate Change and Hurricane Sandy

Yesterday at a little Sandy-related event, a WNYC reporter asked Chris Christie whether New Jersey needed to do more to prepare for climate change (and superstorms that may stem from climate change). Christie refused to answer. Sort of.
I don't agree with the premise of your question because I don't think there's been any proof thus far that Sandy was caused by climate change. But I would absolutely expect that that's exactly what WNYC would say, because you know liberal public radio always has an agenda.
And the crowd went wild. The question comes on the heels of a massive WNYC/Bergen Record

Well that's got to be the first time a U.S. governor has ever uttered those words on national television. Also divulged in this interview with NBC's Brian Williams: He got lap-band advice from Rex Ryan and the David Letterman donut-scarfing appearance was his "goodbye" to obesity.

Since Tuesday, we've been a nation of lap-band surgery experts, covering the medical, historical, and political implications of Chris Christie's weight-loss gambit. Some have looked to the past, documenting the New Jersey Governor's skinnier days. Others, namely the Asbury Park Press, have also looked forward, projecting what a svelte Christie might look like.
Here's yesterday's front page:
More exciting yet, here's the GIF the Press released this morning, documenting the possible effect lap-band surgery has on a fat man's jowls, taking place over the course of one second.
WATCH: Chris Christie’s All-Star Tribute To His Fleece

At the risk of paying too much attention to Chris Christie today, he has just released a seven-minute all-star video—Morning Joe! James Carville! Jon Bon Jovi!—featuring the hunt for his famous, but missing, fleece. There are many, many double takes in this video. Also: The ultimate culprit ends up being the only person in the video with a foreign accent! So. There's that.
Spoiler alert:
Thanks @abfalecbaldwin for contacting @njsp. That @hilariabaldwin is one sneaky lady! youtube.com/watch?v=VaCSl-…

Chris Christie Is So Awesome, He Governs New Jersey From Dreamland

Because he's Chris Christie, Chris Christie on Tuesday had a snarling news conference in which he more or less refused to say much about his lap band surgery beyond what he'd already told the New York Post. Being Chris Christie, he also asserted startling powers of omnipotence—including the ability to receive information, process that information, and give orders while under surgical sedation:
Although Democrats stayed mum, questions surfaced online about whether Christie appropriately handed over power to Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno while he was under anesthesia.
"I was in surgery for a total of 40 minutes, I was asleep for 40 minutes,

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie tells the New York Post today that he had stomach surgery to reduce his food intake and lose weight. However, he totally didn't do it because he's thinking about running for president, although, yeah, he's thinking about running for president. “I’ve struggled with this issue for 20 years,” he said. “For me, this is about turning 50 and looking at my children and wanting to be there for them.”
Sources said he'd lost about 40 pounds since the February surgery, trimming down from an estimated 300 to 350 pounds, and consulted with New York Jets Coach Rex
Video: Chris Christie Kills Spider, PETA Gets Angry

Friday, Chris Christie posted a video of himself killing a spider in front of a classroom of fourth-graders. PETA, upon being notified of the spider's death said Christie "probably did it without thinking. Some people put the spider outside, but spiders are often scary to people, and that can prevent them from pondering their worth." Actually Chris Christie definitely thought about it, which is why he tweeted out footage of the event.
