A Bridget Too Far: Gov. Christie's "Bridgewatergate" Scandal Reveals Actual Traffic Study

Emails released through subpoena today by New Jersey Assembly Deputy Speaker and Transportation Committee Chair John Wisniewski prove, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that the top aide in Gov. Christie's administration, Bridget Anne Kelly conspired w/ now ousted Port Authority exec. David Wildstein to intentionally screw the city, the commuters and the mayor of Fort Lee - Democrat Mark Sokolich - for his refusal to support Gov. Christie in his reelection campaign.

However, the interesting thing here, is that emails have also surfaced proving there indeed was a traffic study going on.

Wildstein said the study being conducted at the time was "...to see exactly what it would take for a suburban mother of three to exit her minivan, ignore the welfare of her children, and put her fist through the windshield of the car in front of her. That was wrong of us but it was purely in the name of science."

Further details show the study was monitoring the overall effects of traffic on the human psyche. Turns out, people don't like it.

During the hearings in Trenton this week, Mayor Sokolich, wearing a wire, apparently taped two older gentlemen in the men's room discussing the situation. Their conversation was released to the Huffington Post exclusively:

MAN #1: "Pay up, Mortimer I've won the bet."

MAN #2: "Here. One Dollar."

MAN #1: "We took a megalomaniacal, bullying would-be presidential candidate and turned him into a back-tracking, double-talking hypocrite, and, at the same time, we took honest, hard-working commuters and turned them into violently deranged would-be killers. By the way, where is Beaks?"

Unknown to most following this shocking scandal, is that statistics also show that during the 5-day traffic nightmare, online gambling in the Fort Lee area shot up 1000%.

The situation has caused such an uproar, working-man's musician John Mellencamp is reportedly working a single to raise money for the victims of Fort Lee.

"The Port Authority Song" is scheduled for release Feb. 15.

Lyrics include: "I fight Port Authority, Port Authority always wins. When I fight Port Authority, Port Authority always wins."

If nothing else, at least the discovery of these emails will finally allow the N.J. State Assembly to get to the "Big" bottom of this.
