Governor Chris Christie Drive slated to memorialize the outgoing governor

[TexasTowelie]

Some governors, like Brendan Byrne, get an arena or a swath of forest named after them. Others, like Alfred Driscoll, get a bridge.

On Monday, Chris Christie got an access road in a park built on the grounds of a former psychiatric hospital near his Mendham home.

With less than two months to go as governor, Christie is entering the reflective phase of his political career, when his legacy is starting to be assessed and tributes begin to pour in.

The first — perhaps not the last — public display of appreciation for Christie was unveiled in biting winds on Monday afternoon at Central Park of Morris County, where the outgoing governor and his wife, Mary Pat, plunged shovels into hard dirt that will soon become Governor Chris Christie Drive.

1. Wouldn't naming a bridge be more appropriate?? Or a beach?

2. I'm leaning towards building it with the naming rights

and then never maintaining the road afterwards. It would be nice if they could muck up the base of the road so it becomes as rough as a washboard.

3. I'd rather we didn't build it at all

He's been a horrible governor here and doesn't deserve at.

5. But that only punishes New Jersey residents further

There are several roads like that in my neck-of-the-woods, lots of current road work, and it does awful things to your car. A bridge is probably too on-the-nose, I vote for a beach...

4. Roadblock Detours

Unnecessary and inefficient roadblocks to progress or the way home but then that sounds more republican than merely Christie.

6. Haven't New Jersey residents been punished enough?

I have family in New Jersey.

7. How about a toll lane on the George Washington Bridge?

This asshole doesn't need tributes. He's the piece of shit who first endorsed the idiot racist orange pig in the White House.

Isn't there a sewage holding tank somewhere that we could call the "Chris Christie sludge tank?"
