Stupid. Union Memo Hints At Gov.'s Death
 
Teachers Union's Memo The Latest Salvo In War Of Words With Gov. Christie
HACKENSACK, N.J. (CBS) ―

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie isn't laughing about a teachers union's memo that hints of his death.

The memo is the latest salvo in a war of words between Christie and the union over wage and benefits concessions.

The Record of Bergen County obtained the Bergen County Education Association memo that includes a closing prayer:

"Dear Lord this year you have taken away my favorite actor, Patrick Swayze, my favorite actress, Farrah Fawcett, my favorite singer, Michael Jackson, and my favorite salesman, Billy Mays. I just wanted to let you know that Chris Christie is my favorite governor."

Association president Joe Coppola says the "prayer" was a joke and was never meant to be made public.

2. While it was clearly a joke, I've heard other versions of it before, the  
 "it was never meant to be made public" is really just about the worst defense one can use. The old "regretful choice of words", "I misspoke" and even the "overzealous unnamed staffer" are better than the "We never meant for anyone to find out".

It was a joke must be the qualifier. As in all DUmmy threats.

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

"We will preserve for our children (America), the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done."  -- Ronald Reagan.

You can place me firmly in the "who gives a shit" camp. I'm sure we've all said worse about some Dims. I damn sure have.
Never demand that which you are incapable of taking by force, DUmmie.

The point is that if this was said by a Republican, the dems would view it as a veiled threat and call or the FBI, SS, newspapers, TV news and KO.

Their hypocrisy knows no limit.

That's one explanation as to why there's so much hatred on Skin's island since their guys do it all the time.

That was the first thing I thought -- If 'targeting Democrats' is considered a veiled threat on the Island, so should this.

If Obama, Pelosi, or Reid were featured in that joke then the DUmp would be in an uproar.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.
