Andrew Updates...

It turns out I shouldn't have blogged that I was even briefed about the SOTU. I thought I just had to keep the contents to myself. One thing you learn pretty quickly about this White House: transparency is a theory, not a reality.

Sounds like somebody got ... spanked!

Remember kids: the better the quality, the less "hype" needed.


UPDATE: Poor Andrew. Played for a sucker, again:

The future is understood by Chris Christie who just nominated an openly gay African-American, married for thirty years, to the state supreme court. Christie still opposes marriage rights for gays, but has left the door open if the legislature moves forward, as it wants to do. But when you are treating a potential member of the state supreme court as a second-class citizen, in the end, the position becomes untenable.

*slam* That's the sound of one door shutting...
They don't like you.
They really, really don't like you.
Stop pandering, already?
It really is offputting* to so many out here...

NJ gov says he'd veto gay marriage bill

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — Republican Gov. Chris Christie said Tuesday he'd veto a gay marriage bill advancing in the Legislature and instead wants same-sex unions put to a referendum. Angry Democrats said lawmakers have an obligation to protect civil rights and the issue should not be put off for a public vote.

* I wish he'd just accept his second-class role already, and stop pretending that the libs and moderate Republicans will dance to his self-called tune... Then, he might prove a decent fighter for the team. As it is? See how quickly those promises and special guarantees you've procured for you and yours can evaporate? Better to move together, and not sell out the rest of the team for personal gain.
