White House: We're more ethical than Christie

The White House boasted Wednesday that has a better ethical track record than that of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.

“I think it’s fair to say that if you want to stack up the ethical record of President Obama and his political appointees against the ethical record compiled by Gov. Christie and his political appointees, that we’d welcome that kind of comparison,” White House spokesman Josh Earnest said. He was obliquely referencing Christie’s bridge scandal that ultimately saw several Christie aides quit or get reprimanded and for which Christie ultimately apologized for using lane closures to punish political adversaries.
