New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie hammers Washington Post columnist Jonathan Capehart during a discussion over gay marriage, which Christie recently vetoed.

"I used to be a prosecutor. I’m not going to be cross-examined by you this morning,” said Christie to Capehart.  

"I'm having fun trying," Capehart snapped back.

"And you're going to lose, so let's move on," said Christie.

Earlier on in the show, Christie insisted that his position to strengthen civil unions between gay and lesbian couples is the same as President Barack Obama’s position.
