On Wednesday Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) told Neil Cavuto today that he was inviting Governor Chris Christie (R-NJ) to a beer summit to patch up their differences.
“If he can sit down, I’m inviting for a beer… We’ll formalize it. I’ll put it in writing.”
Neil Cavuto later congratulated himself for brokering a peace agreement.
Unfortunately, Governor Christie rejected the peace offer.
The Hill reported:
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) turned down an offer by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) to get a beer and end a nearly week-long feud.
“I’m running for re-election in New Jersey. I don’t really have time for that at the moment,” Christie said to Eric Scott on 101.5 FM’s “Ask The Governor” program on Wednesday, according to the Asbury Park Press. “You know, if I find myself down in Washington, I’ll certainly look him up. I don’t suspect I’ll be there anytime soon. I’ve got work to do here.”
A few hours earlier, Paul said he would like to bury the hatchet and get a beer with Christie.
