Governor Christie is taking some flak
For taking a chopper to his son’s game and back.
The reason the trip is causing debate
Is the chopper in question belongs to the State.
Thus the governor seems to have caused quite a fray
By using the chopper to see his son play.
His critics are loud in the resulting dispute,
Though his fellow Republicans all remain mute.
There are those for whom the whole thing just works;
They see the trip as one of his perks.
