Chris Christie Orders NJ National Guard Leader to Lose Weight

Gov. Chris Christie is asking someone else to lose weight -- the leader of the New Jersey's National Guard.
The 2016 presidential candidate, who has struggled with his own weight problems for years, has given Air Force Brig. Gen. Michael L. Cunniff 90 days to meet the U.S. military's fitness requirements and slim down after learning he was reprimanded by the Pentagon last year for his excessive weight and for missing physical-fitness tests.
As commander and chief of the New Jersey National Guard, Christie is in charge of 8,400 soldiers and airmen.
Christie spokesperson Kevin Roberts said the governor was informed of the issue last week and is urging the general to come into compliance with all military requirements.

It's just something to chew the fat over. Don't freak out nerd.

The general is beholden to military standards of physical fitness and appearance.
the governor is not.

He's dropping retirement papers as we speak.

I bet those two could do some serious damage to the livelihood of an all-you-can-eat buffet owner.

Not really hypocrisy. One guy signed a contract to stay in shape, one didn't.

If Chris Christie died today I wouldn't be bothered at all.

I'm not a Chris Christie fan either, but standards are standards. I'm not sure why this is news.

It's national guard, who cares what he weighs.
I saw plenty overweight CSMs who forged their pt tests while in active duty
