Crist clears calendar to attend funeral in NY

Gov. Charlie Crist canceled his events today, including an interview with Time and a meeting with members of the European Union in Miami, to attend the funeral of a family friend in New York.

The governor's office would not reveal who the funeral was for, only saying it was a close family friend. Crist did not travel on a state plane, his spokeswoman Erin Isaac said.

Comments

Must be more cameras & media at the funeral than the Time magazine interview.

funeral for the U.S. DOLLAR, thanks to the policies of the DRUNK in the white house and other piglican losers!!

Chuck,

Even though I don’t believe you have an ounce of integrity as a Governor, I’m sorry for your loss.

Really 1:09?? I bet even your D friends are sick of your constant negative retoric. Same old s--t! Pea brain!

what's with the big hush hush?

Sun Tan Charlie never met a camera he didn't like. One would think he'd be reveling at the thought of all the photogs who'd be waiting for him in NY!

Something smells mighty fishy to me. How come he won't disclose who it is?

Adam, how bout a little investigative journalism????

Ps Another day off for Florida's part time Governor!

Maybe this New York trip is just a cover so Crist can try to crash the Bush wedding in Crawford, Texas.

Check his schedule for yesterday as he ended the day near the girlfriend...and it didn't say it wasn't a private plane- just not a state plane. Bluejet perhaps?? (Her ex owns the company)

You idiots voted for him.....and now you have him!!! IDIOTS

They won't say who the funeral was for? What a joke.....

Chuck,
it wasn't his loss it was his girlfriends loss.

What do you mean his girlfriend, that girl from New York?
