Christie isn’t the first Republican to criticize Buffett — who has responded with a standing offer to match any donations to the Treasury from congressional Republicans.
If that Republican happens to be Sen. Mitch McConnell, a frequent critic of higher taxes on the rich, Buffett will triple the match.
So far, only one Republican has taken Buffett up on his offer: Rep. Scott Rigell of Virginia, who gave 15% of his salary to the Treasury in 2011, and plans to do so again in 2012.
