In the interview, Christie got ahead of Morgan a bit and started preempting his questions about who would benefit from these tax cuts. "The top 1% (of New Jersey residents) pay 40% of the taxes", he said.

The fact of the matter is that I’m tired of hearing about it. If he wants to give the government more money, he’s got the ability to write a check — go ahead and write it.[/COLOR]

“I’m so tired of talking about Warren Buffett,” Christie said, interrupting Morgan. “What are you going to bring up next, his secretary? I mean, this is the old song.”
“You haven’t even heard the question,” Morgan exclaimed.

“I know the question,” Christie replied. “Do you really think Warren Buffett needs as much attention from the government as the most vulnerable … since I got the question right, I’m not answering the question, how about that. That’s my gift for getting the question right.”

“First of all, Warren Buffet doesn’t live in New Jersey,” Christie said, before ultimately answering the question. “Of course, during difficult economic times you’re most concerned about the people who have the potential to suffer the most.”

Christie made his comments in the context of saying that his job as governor is to be responsible for all New Jerseyans.
