grunching,, but this crap is overblown. if christie is really behind closing three freaking lanes on a local access road to the gwb ,, honestly, he is wasting his time and a person that hands on should not be into politics, besides , these politards do this **** all the time.

End up? End up???

Well actually I could see how you could make that mistake. We are pretty far from ended up, so far that we can't see it anymore. But it's not down the road. It's wayyyyyy back down the other way. We're talking thousands and thousands of posts ago.

I am not claiming that I know what will happen with CC. Not enough facts are out yet.

The original argument was whether the alleged conduct falls inside NJ's statute for official misconduct. On that point, you and Ike are completely off the rails. You likewise are off the rails when you it comes to equating prosecution with factual guilt. Kelly and the others could be factually guilty of the alleged conduct and not prosecuted for a multitude of reasons.

The fact that I am a lawyer does not mean that I am right and that you and Ike are wrong, but it certainly gives me confidence in my own opinion. I assume that if Ike and I were debating how to diagnose appendicitis, he would feel the same degree of confidence based on the fact that he has medical training and I do not.

DAYUM

You start getting some criminal charges against the aides and they may start singing about Christie. How did the investigators come up with personal emails anyway?

If you like your HOV lane you can keep your HOV lane.

Sorry at work. I didn't read that was just first one I came across on google. The ACLU has done a detailed report on it though. However, it's not even close he is the worst for civil liberties and his administration is the most aggressive towards whistleblowers etc etc

Looks like old age got her and not CC.

Some of the GOP are clinging onto Christie like drowning men hanging onto straws.

We need a black horse.

Christie was never the answer.

I don't claim to know what will happen either, but I'm willing to put up some cash if the price is right.

lol wut

where did I say anything about whether the alleged conduct was or was not in violation of any statute???

cool story bro

pvn if you don't claim to know what will happen, how will you know if the price is right?

I'll give you 1:1 million that someone is charged with a crime at some point before the sun explodes. Come on, put your money where your mouth isn't.

lol

you must be great at poker

They aren't defendants until they are charged.

Edit: nevermind, missed the if charges are filed prerequisite in the first post

Lol at the pvn haterz this ain't the Iron Bowl, son. golfnutt threw down the gauntlet and got called out here the rest of you can land the lawnmowers.

If that's what you took from what I was talking about......

Like, dude, you're the one who brought up betting in the first place. It's really weird for you to step up to some guy with "Do you want to put yer money where your mouth is?" and then expect the other guy to set the line.

That's a standard DVault thing, someone says "I really think something something is likely/unlikely" then DVault says "OK what line are you offering".

@Deuces - I forgot Ike ran against a bald guy, Adlai Stevenson, twice. LOL I guess you are right.

The Duker said:

"Seems pretty clear that "in an unauthorized manner" could be applied to what is currently known."

You replied:

"lol

that's not clear at all

I mean basically the whole legal profession is built on the opposite assumption"

I guess that i took your reply as an opinion on the scope of the statute. Was I wrong?

Don't think you want to bring that up buddy. You were thoroughly massacred itt

oh good god you are ****ing terrible at poker arent you?

Do you really think he's that fat?

lol what a tag team here. pvn makes a complete non sequitor, ikes has no idea what's going on but repeats it, because OMG SOMEBODY WANTS TO BE IKESY'S FRIEND.

PVN won't know if the "price is right" unless he has an idea what the true line is. Unless this is just pure degeneracy and pvn just needs the action?

It kind seems like pvn is having a little bit of a "8 years of Hillary" prebreakdown here. Now, in past, he's seen DVaut and others use prop betting to bring people down a peg and he tries to mimic that, but he clearly never really understood how that worked.


You aren't supposed to say "anything", pvn. You're supposed to want to bet them about the thing that they are wrong about.

Sometimes people do that, but the way that you get the same point across while skipping several steps is you set a line yourself and ask them for action.

E.g. "If you're so sure charges will be filed*, will you give me 3:1 on nobody being charged? 2:1? What odds will it take?"

And then they admit they want the odds and you declare victory.


*Note, in this thread pvn literally invented that people were sure charges would be filed, he's mostly been arguing with a guy saying that the statute has been violated, which is obviously an entirely distinct question. So there's no way to prop bet that, which makes this entire thing pointless. Which, amazingly, pvn appears to have realized so he's posting nonsense like Which indicates he thinks his opponents are wrong about everything? pvn believes he has some systematic edge in predicting the future over any comer. Bold stance.
