Unfortunately, since this group has ties (regardless of how loose they may be, it remains to be seen) this will be scoffed at as a political move.

Sickening and Disgusting. Don't you see? The Clintons are surrogates for Jeb Bush. That's the real story. I despise Christie. But I fear the evil of the Bush family that the Clintons are obviously members of.

They are basically the default candidate if Bush loses. Bill only won in '92 because Ross Perot saw what was happening and took Bush Sr out. They all work for Wall St which want a controlled election of Bush vs Clinton with Bush the preferred candidate and Clinton the backup in their pocket. The Clintons and Jeb need to get rid of Christie and Warren.

I actually think the Bushes set this trap. Jerry Jones, a Texassian, is likely a Bush supporter. Consider that he invited Chrisie to the game knowing that it would create controversy seeing The fat man make an ass of himself in the booth on national tv. Remember Fox controlled the camera shots. One more negative for Christie and less of a problem for Jeb. I'm sure Jerry promised a big free buffet to sweeten the trap. Ya think?????

Cold and calculating as the Bush clan always is and Christie looks like a foolish amateur.

- I'm sure it can all be explained away as a billing error.......

This group has ties to lots of Democrats, & why the hell does it matter who they have ties to at least they have the balls to call Gov Christie out on this as opposed to allowing him a free pass...When it comes to a sitting Governor & likely 2016 Republican candidate for President violating the law it needs to be investigated...

It seems the OP is trashing Hillary for having ties to this group that is attempting to hold a corrupt politician to the laws he swore to uphold... Good for them & why try to bash Hillary???

Damn I'm tired of the endless Hillary bashing

.....if someone on the PTA in Chappaqua organizes a bake sale, will the headline say he/she is "a PTA member with ties to Hillary Clinton"?

For what it's worth, I'm supporting Hillary Clinton next year.

It was styled that way, I think in part, because of this statement by Chris Christie:

David Brock and the Clinton's are said to be close friends, and Brock is a strong supporter of Hillary running in 2016. It's also no secret that Brock's American Democracy Legal Fund and American Bridge are now both connected to exposing Chris Christi's actions, so I guess that's where they make the connection.

David Brock has come a long way since the 90's when his goal was to bring down President Clinton, that's for sure!

Apparently it was Christie that made a big deal about it, not the newspaper.

If you do support Hillary Clinton I suggest getting some thicker skin because if she does get in the race she IS going to be questioned by a lot of people including myself on her policy stances.

This is small potatoes compared to the other stuff that's been said about her.

And or is the sole reason there's any investigation to begin with & it was brought on by Hillary Clinton because she is running for President & Is simply doing this to discredit Governor Christie who is just as well considered GOP's frontrunner for President...Which I believe we can agree that this is simply not the case, the investigation was brought forth by A group that has supported a number of Democrats and Democratic causes & issues....

BTW I have thick skin & why do you find it necessary to question my character, When we are both Democrats?

How about we make it the goal of the members of this site to start showing respect to each other even if we disagree?

"Group files ethics complaint over Christie's Cowboys trips"

http://www.northjersey.com/news/group-files-ethics-complaint-over-christie-s-cowboys-trips-1.1186849

It's basically an update and I'd prefer to do it that way, or is proper form to add it in my comments section? Maybe I could do that in reverse and add the old one in the comments and the new one as the OP? I don't want to commit an offense against protocol, but admit to disliking the original framing of the article.

...sees and pretty much agrees that the original article (you didn't write it) has a poor headline.

...the original one. There apparently was a second group that filed a complaint, too. All things considered, that's good!
