The former Port Authority official who personally oversaw the lane closings on the George Washington Bridge in the scandal now swirling around Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey said on Friday that the governor knew about the lane closings when they were happening, and that he had the evidence to prove it.

In a letter released by his lawyer, the official, David Wildstein, a high school friend of Mr. Christie’s who was appointed with the governor’s blessing at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which controls the bridge, described the order to close the lanes as “the Christie administration’s order” and said “evidence exists as well tying Mr. Christie to having knowledge of the lane closures, during the period when the lanes were closed, contrary to what the governor stated publicly in a two-hour press conference” three weeks ago.

Hmmm. Just another politician. Looked like a straight talker at first. Not now. GOP will never find anyone respectable.

If no Hilary (Benghazi) and no Christie, who are the front runners for Prez? (I know the voting is rigged.)

IRS used to target political enemies of Obama is quickly forgotten by the press. Selling real assault rifles to Mexican organized drug gangs that were used to kill a cop is quickly forgotten about by the press. Wire tapping the cell phone of the Chancellor of Germany and other ally world leaders was quickly forgotten about by the press. Giving an insane amount to a company in Canada to design the computer program for the Affordable Health Care Act who one of their top executives was college friends with Michelle Obama is quickly forgotten about by press. Benagazi is covered and quickly forgotten about by the press. I could go on with scandal after scandal.

The top Republican candidate for president is accused of causing a traffic jam, the liberal press goes out of their mind in coverage.

Ofcourse he knew, the underlings would not have pulled this off without his consent.

Hey, lane closings now, if he gets into office, with all that power, it's shutting down states that didn't vote for him...
Christie is like a grown up version of Francis Buxton, the guy who stole Pee-Wee's bike. He'll stop at nothing to get what he wants, but he is not savvy enough to hide it well.

I couldn't give three fucks either way, but this is vague bullshit.

Quote
The letter does not specify what the evidence was. Nonetheless, it is the first signal that Mr. Christie, a Republican, may have been aware of the closings, and marks a striking break with a previous ally.

Of course it doesn't specify hard evidence. Just he say she say bullshit. Not like it really matters at this point, the damage is already done.
