LOL – Food fight!!!

Steel-reinforced plum seat.
steebo77 on February 25, 2013 at 11:23 AM
Where is Ms. George Washington, “Governor” Sarah Palin sitting?
TEPJoePa on February 25, 2013 at 11:25 AM
Poor guy. She’ll be directing the staff as to what food they are allowed to put on his plate. Lol.
KickandSwimMom on February 25, 2013 at 11:26 AM
Normally I roll my eyes at fat jokes, particularly when they’re toward someone only because you disagree politically with them, but here goes:
Wouldn’t any seat Christie got at the dinner have been next to FLOTUS?
There. It sucked, but at least it’s out of my system.
vegconservative on February 25, 2013 at 11:26 AM
Politics is perception, CRISTie. All these photo ops of you looking chummy with the Obamas is not going to endear you to Republican primary voters in 2016.
Doughboy on February 25, 2013 at 11:27 AM
Is it germane to the story? I wouldn’t let her live up there without you getting SOME rent money from her…
JFKY on February 25, 2013 at 11:27 AM
If sitting next to bangs is a plum assignment then it must be like the old radio contest where first prize is a week in Detroit, second prize is 2 weeks in Detroit, third price is 3 weeks . . .
Maybe sitting next to her is a treat because all the other Governors had to go gardening with her later.
SoRight on February 25, 2013 at 11:29 AM
Can the floor loading take both of those huge behinds in a narrow space?
Dingbat63 on February 25, 2013 at 11:29 AM
They should hold the Nathan’s Hot Dog eating contest on either side of them.
portlandon on February 25, 2013 at 11:29 AM
Hee… Don’t think that Team Rubio doesn’t already have the commercials cut.
Illinidiva on February 25, 2013 at 11:35 AM
Gonna be like a hog trough on that part of the table.
ButterflyDragon on February 25, 2013 at 11:35 AM
No kidding. Rubio is a Senator today thanks almost entirely to a hug Chuck Crist gave Obama.
Doughboy on February 25, 2013 at 11:39 AM
Remind me again why I’m supposed to like this RINO?
JannyMae on February 25, 2013 at 11:40 AM
Because he’s “electable”….*SHEESH* How many times do you have to be told! That’s who you select to run, the ELECTABLE Guy….I know I certainly had a swell time at the Romney Inaugral.
JFKY on February 25, 2013 at 11:43 AM
Because he occasionally talks smack in public to union reps, teachers, and reporters.
Doughboy on February 25, 2013 at 11:43 AM
“Are you going to eat that?”

Chris Christie gets plum
seatbench next to FLOTUS at big White House dinner for governorsantipc on February 25, 2013 at 11:48 AM
Here goes…Jack Spratt could eat no fat, his wife could eat no lean, and so between the 2 of them they licked the platter clean!
2L8 on February 25, 2013 at 11:50 AM
I’d like to think that Rubio would have won even without the hug just because of who Marco Rubio is and who Charlie Crist is. However, the hug was a great illustration of who Charlie Crist is – a political opportunist of the highest order. The same way that Christie’s shameless sucking up to the Obamas is illustrating who Christie is.
Illinidiva on February 25, 2013 at 11:53 AM
Roll a doughnut down the table in front of them.
Hilarity ensues.
Aviator on February 25, 2013 at 11:55 AM
I wonder how her table manners were this time. Any eye rolling?
Brat on February 25, 2013 at 11:56 AM
Just one more thought…. Charlie Crist is a feelgood reminder that sometimes we get exactly what we deserve. Not only did he lose the Senate seat, but the scrappy underdog who beat him is now the serious Presidential contender that Crist thought he was going to be. One of the pluses of a President Rubio (for me at least) is the fact that it would make the Oompa Loompa’s head go ‘xplodey.
Illinidiva on February 25, 2013 at 12:02 PM
I don’t know. Were there really that many damaging soundbites that Rubio could’ve used to cut into Crist’s lead in the primary(at least early on)? And his record as governor was no good since he was actually fairly popular with Florida voters. That image of him embracing Obama was devastating.
Doughboy on February 25, 2013 at 12:02 PM
Who reached for the lobsters first?
Schadenfreude on February 25, 2013 at 12:02 PM
Who’s lardbin was bigger?
Schadenfreude on February 25, 2013 at 12:03 PM
You mistyped “plump” in the headline.
philoquin on February 25, 2013 at 12:05 PM
She just did that so her butt would look smaller.
bigmacdaddy on February 25, 2013 at 12:06 PM
Fat and Fatterer.
sauldalinsky on February 25, 2013 at 12:08 PM
And the trough containing the lobsters took up the remaining space at the table.
Good news, though. The Mooch won the lobster eating contest. She swallowed the last one whole, shell and all to put her over the top.
HumpBot Salvation on February 25, 2013 at 12:19 PM
MO has a nastier butt and a junk yard dog disposition.
SparkPlug on February 25, 2013 at 12:20 PM
You’re not. Christie sold us down a river, from his self-serving keynote speech to public fellating of Obama in the Sandy aftermath for a photo op. He’s the toast of the town for libs now, but they would turn on him on a dime if he were ever to clinch the nomination in 16. Thankfully, he won’t since his actions are politically toxic outside of NJ.
Our options in 12 sucked, but they won’t next time. I’m probably going to vote to nominate whichever candidate draws the most fire from the media.
crrr6 on February 25, 2013 at 12:20 PM
I LOLd at that.
UltimateBob on February 25, 2013 at 12:21 PM
Mrs Obama has the table manners of a cannibal. She bites through lobster shells with her mandibles and grunts like an wildebeest
SparkPlug on February 25, 2013 at 12:26 PM
My theory on the 2010 Senate Race is that Jeb Bush was using Rubio as a stalking horse to extract personal revenge against Charlie Crist*. I think that Jeb Bush would have made his support for Rubio public if it was needed to sink the Oompa Loompa. I also think that Crist, even without the hug, was still to the left of where most Republicans were and that people ended up voting for Rubio because they liked Marco Rubio in the end. Let’s remember that Rubio won a three way race with nearly 50% of the vote and actually expanded his lead during the general election period due to the debates.
*As another fun tidbit.. Karma also caught up with Jeb Bush for his personal revenge plot. It is incredibly clear that Rubio is gunning for 2016 and that he could care less about Jeb’s 2016 vanity campaign anymore. (There have been a few stories that suggest the relationship between the two is frosty.)
Illinidiva on February 25, 2013 at 12:33 PM
If they sat Christie next to Mooch on Guam the island would capsize!
wildcat72 on February 25, 2013 at 12:35 PM
They’ll have to use benches instead of chairs.
tommyboy on February 25, 2013 at 12:37 PM
And they’ll both use forklifts instead of forks.
wildcat72 on February 25, 2013 at 12:46 PM
Story’s wrong … Christie won’t be sitting next to the FLOTUS – he’ll be under the table where Obama’s sitting.
