I would like to respond to your editorial, "Christie hits right notes for wrong guy," that was published Aug. 30. You stated that since President Obama was elected, the Republicans in Congress decided to be obstructionists and not allow any policy victories for our wonderful president. Once again, you left out a very important fact. The Democrats controlled both houses of Congress for the first two years. Why wasn't Obama successful then? You consistently leave out facts that don't fit your agenda. Please, for the sake of honesty and your self respect, stop the nonsense. Live up to the ideals you proclaim.
