Chris Christie is not just corrupt. He’s compromised.
As Chris Christie’s bridges come tumbling down, Jihad Watch reader Darcy asked to repost this piece I wrote in August 2012, to remind people that not only is Christie a thoroughly corrupt politician, but one who is deeply compromised and in bed with Islamic supremacists of a highly unsavory sort: “Christie’s Embrace of Islamo-Fascists,” from FrontPage, August 13, 2012:
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie held an Iftar dinner at the Governor’s Mansion in late July. He took the opportunity to declare himself a foursquare tool of jihadists and Islamic supremacists, and even adopted their language in deriding those who have pointed out how he has allowed himself to be compromised by them.
Christie complained about a “gaze of intolerance that’s going around our country that is disturbing,” and referred dismissively to concerns that he has gotten too close to Islamic supremacists: “These are the kind of red herrings that people put up who are bigots, who want to judge people based upon their religious beliefs, want to judge people with a broad brush.”
Attending the dinner was the prominent New Jersey Imam Mohammad Qatanani, and Christie was glad to see him, telling him before the audience: “I’m glad to have you here.” Qatanani, he said, was his “friend,” and someone who has “attempted to be a force for good in his community.”
