Chris Christie Speech at Iowa State Fair Interrupted by Animal Rights Activists

Christie’s marketing campaign has emphasised his candor, with “Telling It Like It Is” as his slogan.

“Animals want to live”, the two activists chanted, as an Iowa State Trooper pulled them off the stage. Fairgoers drop kernels into jars marked with the candidates’ faces.

“I’ll be on the first stage, so don’t worry about it”, he told CBS in an interview set to air Sunday, referring to the debate stage reserved for the 10 Republican candidates with the strongest showing in public polls.

He said the most important step to securing the border is to require every employer in the United States to use the e-verify system, which allows businesses to determine whether a potential employee is eligible to work in the country.

A bill that would force Christie and all future governors to reimburse New Jersey taxpayers for travel and security expenses stemming from out-of-state political trips has been working its way through the state legislature. “Yeah, a pony might be good, ” Christie stated. The New Jersey Governor said he vetoed the bill because there are few hog farms left in New Jersey and the farmers who do have hogs don’t use gestation crates. He parried questions on President Barack Obama’s Iran nuclear deal, calling it a huge mistake, and touted New Jersey’s status as third in the nation in use of solar power.

“Did you hear I had the animal rights people protesting?” Ted Cruz and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee – are all slated to seem on numerous political exhibits Sunday.

Christie after his MSNBC spot was scheduled to head to New Hampshire for a town hall Monday night at Sayde’s Neighborhood Bar & Grill in Salem.

Since taking office in 2010, over $1 million has been spent on Christie’s out-of-state security costs.

Chris Christie is not anxious about a lawsuit filed against him by three left-leaning advocacy groups.

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal has been campaigning heavily in Iowa as he seeks the Republican presidential nomination.

Jindal after speaking at the Soapbox also stopped by the Iowa GOP booth in the Varied Industries Building and worked in the Iowa Pork Producers Tent.
