I can hear the conspiracy theorists...

Cipel works for the Mossad, and they want Bush reelected, so this is part of a campaign to distract and deflate the Democrat Party, the effects of which will reflect poorly on Kerry's already lackluster performance.

Male rape is just more than I want to know this hour of the morning.

The whole very sorry, very sordid affair is okey-dokey with the democrats apparently.

Ick.

There's only one conspiracy theory at work here.

Cipel was working for Charles Kushner, who hired him specifically so that Kushner would be able to blackmail McGreevey whenever he needed state approvals, assistance, etc. for any of his myriad of real estate interests.

Well, this was Jersey, home of Bruce Springstein, often speculated to be a Mossad double agent.

Well, now we know the truth about Bruce Springstein... He's working for the DNC, not Mossad.

A video would sure be hard to defend against.

No. The NYT strongly condemned it (and said it was absurd and undemocratic for McGreevy to stay in office instead of having a special election). The NYT sets the liberal agenda (not officially or anything, but most liberals will take their cues directly from the NYT or from some other liberal aping it.

Maybe the NYT knew the rape allegation was coming and that's why it came out so strongly against McGreevy (because they didn't want any Dems to get caught defending him before the rape charges broke).

We will have to see whether in the next few days top Democrats publicly call on McGreevy to step down immediately.

BINGO! Sounds like Cipel is a con artist. McGreevey got conned, seems like. Where's the Marion Berry defense?

I don't understand all of this, if Golan is claiming McGreevey made unwanted sexual assualts on him, then why not file criminal charges forsexual assualt? If there are witnesses, then there is probably enough to go forward with an indictment.

The only thing I can think here is that Golan and his lawyer cut a huge deal with McGreedy. The true scandal will be the source of the money. I am going to go out on a limb and say that the money is coming from the taxpayer.

You know what - the RAT voters could care less.

If so, then McGreevey seems to have called his bluff.

Cards, gentlemen.

The story of McG's sexual perversions allowed him to be blackmailed for cash and favors for many many years before he became governor and that just escalated to a wider circle of blackmailers once elected.

If you look back over the scandals from the beginning you see the faces of the blackmailers......the Mayor of Newark comes to mind and the list goes on and on and on.
