Astonishing 'Confession' from former NJ Gov. (Gay sex trysts in 'bookstores and rest stops')

He needs to go back into the closet. He is just disgusting. The parkway and turnpike should monitor the rest stops from perverts like him.

[RegulatorCountry]

Was he getting tips on disguise from double-naught spy Valerie Plame, or what? An anonymous governor?

" McGreevey, who is now separated from (wife) Dina . . ."

apparently not.

[pogo101]

Again McGreevey tries to paint the issue as one of sexual orientation. It isn't. It's about infidelity to a chosen spouse and the corruption of naming, to high-paid positions of public trust, the lover with whom he was cheating. Said lover does HAPPEN to be male, but who really cares?

All of my friends/acquaintances who are gay are furious with McGreevey for seeking to make this an issue of orientation rather than cheating and political corruption.

If McGreasy REALLY wanted to write a tell-all book, he'd have to write about his bribe-taking, influence peddling and CRIMINAL activities while in office (Machiavelli, anyone?). Instead, he's peddling smut.

Typical Democrat. McGreasy is no victim - the citizens of New Jersey are for his corruption and mismanagement.

[PeterFinn]

The truth is out.

[oldenuff2no]

He admits to being a womanizer!!! How many ladies did he expose to the risk of HIV? Now he gets to have a big payday for risking other peoples lives. He should take a long drop with a short rope around his neck!!!! This idiot could have, and may have, caused a chain reaction of pain, misery, and death. People like this really need to be gone from this earth.

[ArcadeQuarters]

McGreevey speaks about meeting anonymous men at rest stops for sexual trysts.

Thanks for making rest stops so clean and inviting for families, governor.

So he's really not a "gay American" he's just a sleazy man-ho who will do anything that walks, crawls or slithers. Ugh.

[Alberta's Child]

Don't feel sorry for his second ex-wife. McGreevey's, uh -- "track record" -- was one of the worst-kept secrets in New Jersey long before he was married for the second time.

[goldstategop]

Believe me, the phrasing's similiarity to Augustine's autobiography is purely coincidental. The latter also led a debauched life and went onto greatness. McGreevey led the same but in secret and he fell from prominence to disgrace. And he wants us to revel in his human weaknesses as opposed to the north African saint's celebration of the good he could be. Then again, our time has no use for any one who isn't notorious.

"Typical Democrat. McGreasy is no victim - the citizens of New Jersey are for his corruption and mismanagement."

The sad thing is that the NJ residents keep electing democrats despite the Torch, McFeeley and Corruptzine. They are hopeless

"I became as avid a womanizer as anybody else on the New Jersey political scene, but my attraction was largely artificial. My sexual performance a triumph of mind over matter."

Exactly why did he become a womanizer? To make everyone think he wasn't gay?

Methinks BS...

[kitkat]

***Methinks he's giving himself cover for some reason. Male prostitutes?***

He's playing the sympathy card. He bares his soul to the world, and throws himself on the mercy of the democrat/socialist/communist lovers. Then he goes on the lecture circuit, makes pots of money, and THEN runs for office again as a poster boy for the "enlightened" America.

[old and tired]

Not only the ex-wives, but the children. God bless them. Not only is their father a sodomizing sleazeball, he needs to proclaim his illness and sin to all the world. God help the family he has chosen to abandon.

[jonno]

zactly

[goldstategop]

I don't care who he sleeps with. But for the gay community, what one does in bed is something the entire world must know, whether it wants to or not. The personal is both public and political with these people as though their very sexual identity depended on the affirmation of others.

[Revolting cat!]

Let's see, how can we work this in a state motto, which is still undecided for New Jersey?

New Jersey: The Gay Rest Stop State

New Jersey: Come at Our Rest Stop

[yellow rubber ducky]

As a married woman, my sympathy is with this man's family, the women he'd married, and their children. Don't have much compassion for him....it would have been better for all if he hadn't written a tell-all style book. Is dignity really that old-fashioned?
