In these times of economic distress, massive job losses, shrunken businesses, bloated governments and runaway public spending, we've been waiting for some politician (other than Ron Paul) to stand and tell the truth. Politicians excel at "kicking the can down the road" -- that is, postponing the inevitable reckoning for unsustainable spending until they are either safely out of office or dead.

But behold! The newly elected governor of New Jersey, Republican Chris Christie, stood in front of 200 of his state's mayors last week and told them basically that there is no more road down which to kick that proverbial can. In his speech at the New Jersey League of Municipalities, Mr. Christie began by calling the legislature's $29 billion budget something out of "Alice in Wonderland." He told the collected hizzoners that the old game of tax and spend was over. He described unhappy meetings in his treasurer's office, where he was presented with 378 possible freezes and lapses to be used to balance the budget. He accepted 375 of them. (Emphasis added)

I am impressed with Gov.Chris Christie of NJ. It takes guts to do that.  I was impressed with him during his campaign.. This is faster move than even I had expected.  Good on Gov.Christie!

We shall see what all he has cut!  Wow 375 of 378 possible freezes! Yikes!  It's going to be a rough road for NJ, but Gov.Christie sure seems committed to getting NJ's budget back into shape.
