Steven Spielberg: Chris Christie is my hero
THR: Where were you both for the election?
Spielberg: I was at home.
Day-Lewis: I was in New York. At the moment, we’re [Day-Lewis and his wife, writer-director Rebecca Miller] based there. I’ve lived in Ireland for 16 years in County Wicklow; I still think of it as home, but I’ve three boys at school here now. We struck a deal about the education of our children, and my wife is a New Yorker, so we agreed to split the time, if it worked out, and it seems to be working out so far.
Spielberg: You asked me for an example. Gov. Chris Christie was a hero for me. He was able to put party politics aside for the greater good. And the fact that he would, right at the end of the election cycle, tell the truth about his gratitude — he was my hero.

How precious. And what was the “truth” of what Obama had done exactly? Connected Christie to line one, Bruce Springsteen. Just wait until you throw your hat in the ring, Chris, and see how nice the media, Bruce and all these other left-wing celebs are to you.

Greater Good.
That’s a code phrase for communism, right?

MSM: We love him! We… love… Chris Christie.

MSM 2016: Too fat, too unhealthy, too stupid, no Ivy League degree, too loud, undiplomatic, grates women voters, kids hate him, will most likely start WWIII, and, uh, RACIST! What? Oh, that’s right, Hillary — he’s SEXIST!

Pssssssst…..conservatives. Liberals are co-opting Chris Christie and will use him to attack you for resisting Obama. Pass it on.

I’m going to guess, yes..yes it is.

One of the many reasons I’ve passed on seeing Lincoln.

I think this shows how much false bravado was flowing about Barry’s easy re-election. Christie is getting more credit than he’ll ever want.
The Dem money wants him to flip to indie, so the ’16 field is splintered for Hillary.
Don’t matter. I’ll bring political hellfire & brimstone to make sure he understands his only base is on MSNBC.
Rand Paul, or I’m the one sitting out this time.

He was able to put party politics aside for the greater good = he helped the democrats.
I’m glad I have seen a speilberg movie in a while. I know I spelled it wrong. I don’t care to take the time to look it up.
