Chris Christie Hits a Closed State Beach, and Kicks Up a Fury

[virge]

 

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) would like you to know that he definitely did not get a tan this weekend.

 

Yes, Christie told reporters at a Sunday news conference in Trenton, his family was staying in the state-owned beach house at Island Beach State Park over the July 4 weekend — even though the park was closed to the public amid a statewide government shutdown.

 

He had been unapologetic about that gubernatorial perk the day before: “That’s the way it goes,” Christie said Saturday. “Run for governor, and you can have the residence.”

 

And, yes, he had joined his family at said state-owned beach house, flying between the barrier island and Trenton using a state helicopter. But when asked if he got any sun, Christie was clear.

 

“I didn’t,” he said Sunday, according to the Newark Star-Ledger. “I didn’t get any sun today.”
