Assuming the 2012 Republican candidate loses in the general election (seems likely at this point), I expect the 2016 Republican primary to be equally enjoyable.

Yeah, for entertainment's sake, I hope that Christie will be as outspoken toward his fellow candidates as he is toward everyone else. Seriously, since the rest of the likely Republican field in 2016 looks so terribly bland, as far as personality goes, I'd hope at least Christie will be fun to watch.

I thought honesty was a quality people liked in politicians. Guess not.

People would generally prefer that others not be honest about their godawful personalities.

Calling an "idiot" an idiot is the honesty.

And why was the other guy an idiot? Because he dared to disagree with America's Governor?

Because if you want a person to answer your question, it's probably best not to talk over him while he's giving an answer.

Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

It's Christie's own personality that he's too, shall we say, honest-by-deed about.

Exactly.

It's not that he disagreed it's that the Gov respectfully have him a chance to state his position and when it was his turn to respond the seal was acting very childlike. And the funny part about it is that he's a second year law student who probably thinks that kind of behavior would be acceptable in a court room.

Now you tell me if he was " Just disagreeing with the Governor" In a respectful way.
