Chris Christie tells his state’s National Guard chief to get in shape
Chris Christie, the most famous plus-sized politician in America, is taking a dim view of obesity among one of his subordinates.
The Associated Press is reporting that Christie, the New Jersey governor and Republican presidential aspirant, wants Air Force Brig. Gen. Michael Cunniff, the leader of New Jersey’s national guard, to get in better shape.
It seems that Cunniff has been ducking mandatory Pentagon physical-fitness tests.
Christie says Cunniff’s failure to meet Pentagon fitness standards is unacceptable and disappointing, a spokesman said.
In a statement, Cunniff said he was taking steps to remedy the issue.
Christie opted to have surgery, specifically, the gastric band, to control his own weight.
That pic is a hoot.
That pic is also a photoshop.
Persnickety – I can’t imagine anyone not realizing that it is a photoshop.
@Kokoda: I think you severely overestimate the intelligence of “anyone.”
Not the Onion? Really?
Christie is a tick on the dog of life..geting fat on the blood of others.
What a fat fuck lying, cheating, ass-bag and let’s NOT forget, he’s a Republican neo-con.
The rest of the story addresses the “demeaning and toxic” command culture in the militia.”
Nasty Guard ain’t the “militia”….
Anyone who thinks that the NG – which are trained by the Feds, clothed by the Feds, armed by the Feds, equipped by the feds, fed by the Feds and draw their paychecks from the US Treasury Department – is in any way a “militia”, is either pig-ignorant or mind-numbingly stupid…
Still – toxic work environment? RAAAAYCISSSMS?! Bunch of fuckin fat-bodies? Cronyism?
You don’t say?
Heh… they made the military – all branches, EM’s and Officers both – this way… it’s their creation… their clusterfuck.
Now they can suck it. Just suck all the dicks in this bag…
Billy in a bad ,bad mood today. Get your shotgun and go kill a few birds. You’ll feel better. Birds murderers never change.
