Maybe Christie will Reimburse the Iowans

So much chopper news, so little time.

Chris Christie and wife, who earns six figures working part time for Cantor Fitzgerald, fly to son's ballgame via State Police helicopter, then chopper to Drumthwacket to meet Iowa GPOers who want Guv to Prez. Outrage ensues. Christie responds by refusing to reimburse state for the $2,500-an-hour jaunt.

That's dumb. And that's why Chris Christie won't be president. Two words for the unfortunate Iowans caught up in Christie's Choppergate: Tim Pawlenty.

For the record: State Police say Christie's chopper jaunt presented "no additional cost to taxpayers." Huh?
