Governor Chris Christie has found who is responsible for the political closing of the George Washington Bridge, which stranded thousands of people and held up police and emergency vehicles:  It’s Anybody But Him.   

“Not it!” he said at the press conference today.  “Oh, sure, I hired all these people, some of whom were completely unqualified for their jobs. But you can’t hold me responsible for the things done by people who directly answered to me, can you?”
 
I mean, what did people expect him to do?  Investigate it once it came to his attention?  Look into it in some way and punish those involved?  No, certainly, everyone clearly would rather that the media do the job, through sources and emails and phone calls and lots of investigations.  Why should a Governor have to, you know, walk down the hall and ask someone?

No, what people expect from the Governor is to laugh it off and sarcastically say, “Unbeknownst to anyone, I was working the cones” as if this was not a serious thing that placed people’s lives in danger.

Hey, you never know.  Maybe in  a few years, working the cones will be his next job.
