Stewart Blasts Christie’s Ill-Planned, Juvenile ‘Bridge-gate’ Scandal

‘Planning this over e-mail with non-coded lingo, you ought to be ashamed of yourselves’

STEWART: "As we do every night, let's get to your traffic 101's. [ laughter ] If you are coming to New York City on the George Washington Bridge -- [laughter] -- and it's last September. [ laughter ] You may have noticed that the traffic congestion has shifted from its normal hellish congestion to a sort of soul crushing vortex of exhaust and honking where you and your vehicle merge into one stationary amalgam of steel, fumes and broken dreams and an ez-pass. You may have thought to yourself in September at this bridge as you sat unmoving for hours -- huh, is Godzilla on the other side of this bridge destroying the town? And if so, could I take the lower level of the bridge? [laughter] Anyway, the traffic on the fort lee side of that bridge was so unusual that it had to be looked into."
