Chris Christie Rushed to Hospital

[Keystone Phil]

I was very shaken when I heard the news. I am so glad that America's Governor is doing better. Of course, it comes as no surprise that so many here have remained their classless selfs in the face of a near tragedy.

Yeah, let's elect this guy president.

Just forget about the health problems of FDR and JFK. They don't matter as long as you like them, right?

Well, Phil, it is time that he lose weight! I hope he is OK.  

I would never seriously argue that his weight is healthy. I have simply said in the past (including my point yesterday) that from a cosmetic standpoint, losing weight a lot of weight would be worse. Politicos obsessive over this point that the country would look down on someone that overweight. Sure, losing some weight wouldn't hurt him but being a big guy is now part of his personality. He would be trashed as looking sickly if he lost a ton of weight. Again, I'm simply talking about the cosmetics of the situation. Health-wise, yes, he absolutely should lose weight.

By the way, I don't remember others obsessing over the late Senator Kennedy's weight.

...really?

Do you really have to ask? Do you think there is a chance that I don't really believe what I wrote?

Chris Christie is as fat as an American caricature in a British film: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgbSpmZyN7I

Why is that Real American wearing a Yankees hat? Very poor job.

For the last fifteen years or so of his life it was clear that he was going to be in the Senate until he died anyway. I don't see how this is comparable.

So being a fat/unhealthy doesn't matter when you are one of the most powerful members of the U.S. Senate. Got it.

Let's be honest, people: Christie's weight is an "issue" because people don't like him politically.
