Conservative Refocus

Barry Secrest

I know everybody just loves it when Christie goes off on some feckless Liberal or Union school teacher, and I actually do, too, sometimes, dependent upon the situation. And yet, I can't quite figure out why he went off on this kid, who is also a Veteran, the way he did, and why many seem to be celebrating it like it's the second coming.

Think about it; what if Obama went off on a Conservative asking a simple question, calling the man an idiot, and all, the way Christie did here.

The Conservative media would have a heyday, and we would be justified.

When we complain about authoritarians and tyranny, as Conservatives, and then watch how Christie treats, no, absolutely berates, a citizen who he is supposed to be serving like this, who was simply asking a question, or ENGAGING AUTHORITY, you have to at some point begin wondering.

Now, if the kid were being disrespectful, calling him names, or just generally being an actual pinhead, then that's one thing. But I can't, with every video I have been able to view, understand what it was that was so bad regarding what the student said.

And then we celebrate Christies' temper tantrums like they're the greatest thing since peanut butter.  What does that say about us, as Conservatives? Do you teach your children that it's totally right to completely lose it and be abusive to others who have the gall to question?

Quite frankly, I am not aware of any true Conservative who would treat the people they are supposed to be serving in quite this way.

I'm just sayin'.....
