Christie is threatened by libertarians because they will expose him for the closet liberal he really is. Christie<strong> IS NOT<\/strong> a conservative, he may act like one even talk like one but his actions&#8230; his policies to date are not those of a conservative governor. I encourage everyone to read this <a href=\"conservativenewjersey.com\/the-myth-of-christie-conservatism-intro\">expose` by Conservative New Jersey<\/a> on Christie and share it with as many people as possible.<\/p>\n<p>This feud between Christie and Paul is over the NSA program. Paul makes the case that he is &#8220;for spying on terrorists not for spying on every American&#8221; unlike progressives like Christie who are flippant.<\/p>\n<p>As for Obamacare, he makes the case to defund it addressing how the republicans will deal with a shutdown. HE has made it clear they aren&#8217;t looking to shut down government they just want 0care defunded, it&#8217;s the &#8220;republicans&#8221; aka progressives who are saying this move by Paul, Lee and Cruz will shut the government down. So keep that in mind folks it&#8217;s the progressives making those charges not the true conservatives.
