We now return you to Politics As Usual in New Jersey
Three Days. Kumbaya on the banks of the Delaware lasted three whole days in Trenton. That's gotta be some kind of record.
Discussing Chris Christie's budgetary line-item vetoes, Steve Sweeney gets down to brass, er knuckles.
Senate President Stephen Sweeney went to bed furious Thursday night after reviewing the governor's line-item veto of the state budget.
He woke up Friday morning even angrier.
"This is all about him being a bully and a punk," he said in an interview Friday.
"I wanted to punch him in his head."
Hey, at least he didn't say that Chris Christie was "kind of a dick."
Maybe the interview wasn't on seven second delay.
Yesterday Lance asked, "how come Chris Wysocki hasn't commented on this yet?" Um, because I was busy having a life? Yeah, that's it! I! Have! A! Life! (Well, more accurately my kid has a life, but let's not put too fine a point on it, OK?)
And besides, NJ Democrats wanting to punch NJ Republicans ain't exactly a new phenomenon around here. It's what those of us in Tony Soprano Land call "Politics As Usual."
But apparently the rest of the country frowns upon pugilistic political pugnacity. So Steve Sweeney got his own Memeorandum thread. Which of course won't link me.
Anyway, you want comments? OK! Here's what the NJ GOP should do. Get one of those big inflatable punching bags made up in the likeness of Chris Christie. Deliver it to Sweeney's office. Bring photographers.
Then, one of two things will happen.
Sweeney will punch "Chris Christie" in the head. I'm pretty sure that picture will make the evening news.
Or, Sweeney will have to embrace the inflatable stand-in, taking the wind out of his rhetorical sails.
And when the governor gets back from vacation they can both have a few laughs
and get back to work.
