RANDOM THOUGHTS: CHRIS CHRISTIE

Chris ChristieCombative New Jersey Governor Chris Christie recently signed a law concerning road rage. He then called anyone who disagree with him an idiot and arrested himself.

Clarence Thomas,  Supreme Court JusticeRegarding the healthcare debate: I don’t want government making health care decisions.
