About this Article

Gov. Chris Christie's blunt talk has long been one of his hallmarks. But Christie, who has verbally tangled with many, showed Wednesday he's willing to aim his barbs at the highest echelons of his own party. Christie blasted U.S. House Speaker John Boehner for delaying a vote on a $60 billion aid package for Superstorm Sandy recovery. "Do your job and come through for the people of this country," Christie pointedly said about Boehner.
